It is SO good to see you Theresa!  I have been thinking of you.

Sorry to hear about all the stress.......Is there any way we can help?

Hey Theresa,

Thanksfor dropping by. I hope you are feeling well.

I've lost 2 pounds this month, I need to do better, today I started the 5 pouch test, maybe that will help. I'm really confused about my band. It's like a diet now,I bought and use the small plate, scale and etc but really could eat
normally, there's no restriction.  I've stayed with what I should eat, exercise as much as I can tolerate and still stay at a standstill, I'm getting worried, just cannot fail! 2nd fill in 2 weeks. Monica it's great you have your van back and your vacation plans won't have to be canceled this summer. We missed ours this year too but did camp locally in the fall. It was so beautiful with all the leaves turning colors. The Rod and Gun Club celebrated Halloween early for the kids, there was a site decorating contest and we all tried to outdo each other. Goblins hanging from trees every where. Hay wagon rides, parade, pie eating contest,chili cook-outs, fishing and much more. Ron took his big popcorn machine and we used 7 pounds of popcorn kernels for the trick or treaters, young and old, hey I don't think we missed vacation after all.
I sure hope Christy is doing ok, my prayers are for her and her Dad. 
Have a good afternoon , the sun is shining here in Channahon.

I am still pre op but I understand the band takes a while to get to the proper fill for you to cut back on what you eat.  Two pounds sounds like a start to me though and perhaps as you get more fills that will increase.

Just hanging out and likely eating too much.

I cannot seem to get motivated to diet to the really lose weight point this month.  Likely the death of my friend is still with me plus some other personal issues have been disconcerting this month. Hopefully the next two months they will settle out and I can make a big push dow to 400 by summer.
