My Current BMI is 33.4. I weight 207. I haven't lost as much as I should have. I need to star exercising again. My last fill makes eating much harder and I mean alot of things. Meats, etc. I think part of my problem is I don't eat enought often enough and I don't drink enough water. I will be working on this. Hope all is well with everyone and that they are at a good goal.

P.S. the weight loss in noticeable I wear like a regular 14 and some 12's. People do comment on the loss and my husband is happy to!!

I haven't been on for awhile and I need to start checking it everyday. Well my BMI is down to 34.8. And my weight is down to 215. I have a lot more to go. I think I might need to up the date of my fill. I have noticed I can get more than I should be in there. Not close to before but over 6 ounces. My 2nd fill is Jan 16th. My son's second birthday is the 24th of Jan. and I need to look better in these pictures than I did last year. People tell my they notice a difference in my weight. Most in my face and upper body area. But that's what is up now. I will check it later. Hope everyone is staying on track and doing great!

My new BMI after 13lbs is 35.5! It's going down!!

Well I had my 2 week visit today. The doctor says that My inscions have healed well and that everythig looks great. He also said that In those 2 weeks he has me at losing 13 lbs!! So now I can eat soft food!! Yeah!! So after that they made my appointsment for the next few visits 2 of which were for fills. Well they sch. me for my first fill 1 day before Thanksgiving. Not so cool. Thanksgiving is one of the only Hoildays that I celebrate so I think that I am going to cancel until the next week. It's not so much about eating with the family but just spending time with everyone while they are eating and I am not. So other than that everything is going great and I have been working out at the Gym and doing great!

Thanks!!

Wow the weather here in Virginia is really nice today! I am still doing really good with healing from the Lap Band I had done on the 10th. I'am eating a little bit of pureed food like apple sauce and pureed beans for the fiber. But other than that I am still on Liquids. Hope every once else is doing great!!

Weight on 10/21--219lbs
Total lost 11lbs since surgery date!

It's been like 4 1/2 days since my surgery and I am healing well. If you are thinking about having the surgery and are scared just GO FOR IT. I did and I am glad. The liquid is hard to follow I won' t lie to ya but it's going well. I slept on my side for the first time Yeah! Well gotta go.

Good Luck to anyone who is about to have the surgery! It will be worth it!

Weight lost 2 1/2 more lbs since yesterday!
Now 222 1/2

I am feeling much better today. I can get around much better and even bend over which was really hard to do 2 days ago. The pain isn't that bad either except if you burp or sneeze. LOL Hope everyone else who has had surgery is doing just as good or better!!

One complaint I can't sleep on my side yet and I have to sleep more upright or it hurts to breath. I am waiting till I can sleep on my side!!!

Weight as of 10/13 225

I had my Lap Band put on yesterday. I did better than I thought I would. I didn't freak out! It goes by really fast. My surgery was @ 7:30 am and I was out of the Hospital by 12:30. I had a lot of pain so I'am taking the pain killers. They work for the most part but, you always have the snoreness that dosen't go away. But I am doing pretty good and I'am really excited to see what happens from here. I watched the surgery for lap band on a webcast today. My doctor did one that you can watch online. If you wonder what happens you should def. see it. I will put the link up later for people to see.

MY SURGERY IS SET FOR WEDNESDAY. 10/10/07. I AM SO NERVOUS, I AM ALSO EXCITED THO. I HAVE NEVER HAD SURGERY OTHER THAN MY WISDOM TEETH SO I'AM FREAKIN OUT! LOL! I HAD MY SON BUT THAT WAN'T SURGERY. THIS IS FOR THE GOOD THO, I WILL BE VERY HAPPY WITH THE EVENTUAL OUTCOME. 
 I WILL TRY VERY HARD TO DO EVERYTHING I AM SUPPOSED TO.
THEY DAY I WENT TO THE LAP BAND NUTRION CLASS I WAS ASKED BY THE CENTER IF I WANTED TO LET THE MEDIA FOLLOW ME OR QUESTION ME ABOUT THE SURGERY. THEY WERE GOING TO BE PROPOSING A STORY IN THE HAMPTON ROADS AREA OF VIRGINIA TO SEE IF THERE IS INTEREST IN THIS KIND OF SURGERY. AND THEY WANT TO BE ABLE TO SHOW A PERSON WHO HAS DONE IT AND WHAT THEY WENT THREW IN ALL. 
I AM A SHY PERSON SO I THOUGHT MAYBE THIS WOULD HELP ME OPEN MORE AND GET MY BUTT IN GEAR TO REALLY LOSE THIS WEIGHT. IF YOU KNOW PEOPLE ARE WATCHING IT WILL KEEP YOU ON YOUR TOES!! MY MOM HAD THE GASTRIC BYPASS DONE LIKE 5 WEEKS AGO AND SHE'S DOING GREAT. AND SHE HAS ALREADY LOST SO MUCH. SO SHE IS HELPING ME ALOT. I HOPE TO MEET SOME OTHERS LIKE ME AND MAYBE WE CAN SHARE THOUGHTS OR EXPERIENCES CONCERING THE SURGERY.

BE NICE I'AM NEW!!!!
