Topic: RE: Hello NY!
Welcome back.
While 3.5 pounds is not a huge gain, I can understand your worry. We all wonder - will it stop there, or have I "broken" this tool I've been given.....
Remember, every doctor says that at the low point, we will gain 10-20% of the loss amount of weight bac****il out body reaches it's "set-point".
But I applaud your efforts to stay where you are at and comfortable!

Topic: another Jim fargiano quote....I <3 this guy!
Love can be intoxicating when coupled with an attitude of respect for one another. It can be even more powerful when you respect who you are, and know how much you mean to others. The universe is ready to provide you with greatness! Focus on the empowerment that can be found in your thoughts so that the true passion you have for your goals will be granted. You do make a difference!--Jim Fargiano

Topic: Hello NY!
Hello friends!
I have not been on here in FOREVER!
I have missed the boards and feel I need to get back on the wagon!
I have been doing great except am up 3.5 lbs and find that old habits are back! So before it gets out of hand I thought it would be best to surround myself with all you wonderful people!!
So how has everyone been??
Clue me in on things like.....
total weight loss
weight gain
sweet treats (where I am eating too much of)
and how about your favorite protein? I am looking for some
5 day pouch test
and wahtever else has been happening!
Nice to be back!

Topic: RE: fitbit?
I just found that if you wear your fitbit on yur bra... it will record MANY steps when you are driving. If you wear it on the bracelet when you drive it doesnt. That may accound for the extra steps. Or perhaps you just do walk more than you think. Other than the driving thing I have found it to be quite accurate.

Topic: RE: PLEASE READ
While I don't have the bowel difficulties this woman does, I can speak as someone who has had both the band and the sleeve and understands what if feels like to have wasted all that time and to be a failure. I know from experience all of the downfalls of the band and I would be happy to talk to this woman. She deserves a chance to feel success and happiness and It's not too late.

Topic: RE: Medicare any Dr upstate Ny
I'm almost positive that Syracuse will take medicare. I have It and that is where Arnot was going to send me . Instead I chose to go with Dr. T I just really loved him and his staff. They were willing to take me in right where I was at with the process. Couldnt ask for a better Dr. or staff as far as I'm concern. Your friend could always set aup a payment plan on what wasnt covered by his insurance.
