Hi, Joey,

I am also one of Dr. Johnell's patients and I was just curious if you had ever been to the support group.  I find it a great tool.  They meet once a month.  I am not sure how far Sterling is from Greeley, but I believe they meet the first Monday of the month in Greeley.  Going to the support groups has really helped me. :)

Good luck to you,

Jackie

Hi Jackie

Sterling is about 1 Hour and 45 Minutes...  I think they start the group during the evenings... That is kinda late ad hate to drive at night due to wildlife...aka Deer!..lol

Revision on 11/24/15

Good Luck!  I was banded in 2006, lost 86lbs and have gained it all back because I probably was too tight and couldn't swallow.  I've been 3 years without any fluid and have been able to maintain that weight.  I think I might try getting some fluid in to see if the swallowing issues return.  If they do, then I'll talk about revising.  I'm tired of being fat 

You sound like you have a good plan, you can do it!!

Thanks Karen!

 

There are days I feel the band is tighter then most even since not getting a fill for about 2 yrs.

I have mini -goals but need to work on my food choices for sure.
