Hi, I have heard that people who have health issues like heart problems, artificial hip/knees should. I think you should call OCC and speak to one of the on call doctors and your own doctor. You have plenty of time if they advise you to take something. I wish you the best on your new adventure being banded!! I do not regret one minute of being banded This is a tool to lose the weight....enjoy.

Hi Debbie,
Great to hear you are doing well. I just scheduled my 3rd fill. I was told this should be all that I need. I still have 25 to 30 lbs to lose. I find that I can pretty much eat most foods. I'm not able to have any type of breads. Congrats again !!

Hi Steve, Congrats on your progress and being banded. You might want to use something like http://www.livestrong.com (click on myplate) and track your protein intake. Also, eat more protein and contact OCC or your doctor. Good luck and please keep us posted. Janice

I'm just updating my post with each day's run/walk so I can see my total.. I might have to add for the week down the road if it get's to long. I was suppose to do a 5k tomorrow but we are going to help the local school kids do a 5k. We help them pin on their bibs and will line the roads to cheer them on. It's going to be so much fun. The kids in the group (about 100 at the school) just received new shoes donated !! They are going to look so cute in them tomorrow!!! I CAN'T WAIT -
Hi Colleen,
Congrats on your upcoming adventure! I bet you are excited. I know I was when I set my date. My husband and I sit down and wrote up a few questions that I sent to OCC since I was going alone. They really made it so easy from the time I got off my flight. A lot of great employees at OCC and the hotel. Please keep me posted on your trip and have a great time.

I love buying shoes too. My husband laugh's when he see them. He never asks the cost because I only buy cheep ones lol
-
Thank you ! I would have loved to have you there walking/running too :-D My daughter was standing at the finish line... I was so excited to see her since this was her first time seeing me cross the finish line.

Anyone with lower bmi have this done?
JaniceBlack replied to krisninua's topic in Gastric Band Support & Discussion
Hi, I have about 60 to lose and was banded in Nov. 2009 my bmi was 37. I was not told that I would have to give up coffee. But I only drink 1 to 2 cups a day. Each person is different so I think you need to contact OCC and speak to them first. Yes, you pay for fills each time you go to OCC. I have heard of others having fills elsewhere but that would be up to you. I will always go back to OCC. I want to make sure that its done right since OCC uses a X-ray fluoroscope. It is your choice ..... Good Luck and please let me know if you go to OCC and become banded
