Topic: Hi everyone!
I wanted to say HI to everyone and introduce myself. 

I was banded on November 12th by Dr. Roye - he's awesome-  I work as a CNA so my time out of work is longer than most. I'm not due back till December 28th.  

My surgery day was not out-patient because I just did not want to wake up fully and I was in trememdous pain. So I was admitted overnight and released at 7:00 pm the following day.  I had a difficult first week or so with the pain. No gas pain but stomach and back pain for some reason. 

I finally feel like I turned the corner though.  I feel human again.  Can still feel the port site and I'm going in for my first fill on the 23rd.  I'm hoping my 11 lb loose is only the beginning of a beautiful thing.  

I wold love to hear from fellow Rhode Islanders.

i am here to vent!!!!  
i can NOT shake this last 2 pounds off to reach that 100 mark!   i have been in a rut for a few weeks now... lost 6 lbs in 4 weeks...the NUT says it's good, considering where i am...which is 6 months out and 98lbs later.
dont get me wrong, it's not that i am not happy with my results and where i am today, but it is so frustrating when i am that close to "100".... with 19 to go to reach my goal...(that will be the death of me) 

i have reverted back to ALL the rules,protein shakes and kicked the exercise up a notch..hoping this will do it. 
hoping to report back next week with good news...lol

if anyone has any insight to offer... please, by all means...send it my way!

take good care

linda

Topic: almost one year
It is hard to believe that on Dec 30th it will be one year since my surgery!  I have lost over 100 pounds with ZERO complications.  I feel awesome, I have never been sick but I do watch what I eat I would never consider eating a piece of cake!
