BAD NEWS
May 28, 2009
Okay my goal was to lose 100 #'s by June 1st..Well I have gained 20lbs!! Here is my story I went for my last fill in Feb. ,it was to tight I knew it was but I just needed to lose 10 more pounds so I didn't care!! In March I got a cold then a cough and it wouldn't go away I really didn't feel that bad but I knew something was wrong I couldn't eat or even drink anything. Then on Easter Sunday I felt a sharp pain in my back and I couldn't breathe. I went to the Dr found out I had pneumonia and empyea. I had a major surgery was in intensive care for a week had all saline taken out of band and have been recovering ever since. I plan to have the saline put back I hope on June 10Th,but between taking 4 insulin shots a day and no restriction the weight is creeping back! So the moral to my story is nothing is worth your health,listen to your body,take care of it..I was so wrapped up in wanting to lose 100 lbs I ignored everything else. Now I will start again but this time I will do it right!! God Bless You All!!!

Feb 04, 2009
Wow it's been 8 months I can't believe it.I am going for my 4th fill next week I have not had one since September. I really didn't think I needed one I have been losing slowly but surely but this last few weeks I have gained 4 lbs been pretty much eating what I want with no restriction at first I was liking it and I woke up and smelled the coffee STOP!!! I called Erin at Dr Lutrell's office and made an appointment so I will get back on track, my goal is to lose 100 lbs. by June 1 and I know I will achieve it I want to change my picture and add some but I am a computer dummy I will get help so I can add to my page. I hope everyone out there is doing well and is as happy with their band as I am.

Jul 17, 2008
Okay it's been a long time ..I had my surgery on 5-28(supposed to have been 5-27 but there was a storm and the electricity went out so I had to come back next day) Things have been going pretty good I have already had one fill of 3CC and going back for my second fill on 7-23.I have lost 19 #'s since my surgery but I still have a long way to go. I have not been doing very well with learning to take small bites and chewing well so I have had some stuck and slime episodes that were pretty yucky! I'm learning slowly and really trying harder .I hope after this next fill that I get full faster All in all I am very happy with my band !!!
