Hi everyone! I am no longer a bandster. I had my band removed yesterday. I was terribly sick for about 10 days and a bit dehydrated to find out that my band had slipped. I could have had a new one put in but I chose to just have it removed. I loved my band while I had it. If I hadn't been so sick for so long I would have had it replaced,but after feeling like I was near death I didn't want to take the chance of getting another one and it slipping. I have lost 114 pounds and will work hard at keeping it off. I am certain that life will be a challenge from here on......that band was a fantastic tool, I know I will miss it!!

It has been awhile since I have posted. I am losing weight...slowly,but I am losing. I am actually not doing too bad. I have lost 71 pounds since June 2007. I have 3 cc in my band and it's working for me. I have been through the sliming about 6 times now. Every time swearing it will be the last. You would think I'd learn. I am going to ride this fill out for as long as I can. I have good restriction,I just need to get more protein in.

I have lost 9 pounds since my last fill. I made some bad choices over Easter (robbing my girls baskets) I was actually quite surprised when I stepped on the scale. I still have great restriction with the 3cc. I am scheduled for a fill April 29. I will have to wait and see closer to the date if I actually need it. Although I am not losing really fast, I am losing. And as long as I follow the rules of the band I could do better.
