    Hey stacy how you. I booked my first fill for oct 29. how was the first day of solids?

  3. stacv
    i've been reading and seen in many places on the internet that mexico doctors are more aggressive with fills and often place more in during a fill and requiring less fills over time. what did you have placed in a fill ? if you had fills in the states and at OCC, was there a difference in experiences ? thanks.

    Hey Stacy! Sorry for the late response (I've been trying to stay busy so I don't think about food). The liquid diet is ok... Less than a week left of it! The scale has not moved for the past few days... but it drops incredibly if I take walks. How are you doing? Where are you from? When are you thinking about going back for your fills? So many questions... lol!

    Im hoping to go at around 6 weeks too, I hitt a wall to and have only gone down 2lbs this week :( very diapointing. i got an email about pricing from the occ. Was actually considering taking trolley over border then catching a cab.

    i wish i could tomorrow !! i am starving and think i only lost 2 pounds this week which i don't get since my diet is still liquid ! ugh ! hopefully at 6 weeks, i'm trying to figure out my schedule ! when are you going ?

    hey stacy when are you looking at getting your first fill?

  8. stacv
    yes, those were really the only pains i ever had. i called occ and lori explained to me what it was. can't remember exactly to explain it to you, but she said it was totally normal, so i have't worried much about it anymore.

    I believe fills are 100. If you want a package with a room and pick from and drop off then it's a bit more but You can def call and ask them. ;] Let me know what day you are planning to go so we can meet up! ;']

    i called occ today to get some more information about fills so i can start looking at airfare but i didn't even ask about price ? duh.... does anyone know how much a fill and fluroscopy are ?

      don't get bummed out, plateaus are something I've been fighting a lot in my weight loss. It's never came off super easy to me. If you've hit a plateau honestly up your water intake and you'll find it's an amazing method to get you out of that.

      Hi Stacy. 10 pounds is a lot of weight. Your body doesn't want it to happen that quickly and it's having a little tantrum. Stick with it and the weight will start coming off again. Just so you don't get discouraged, go get a 10 pound bag of sugar and hold it for a while. You'll realize how much you've lost then! Hang in there.

    why have you been taking your temp ? did you take it often before your band ? even though 98.6 is the standard for body temp, some poeple naturally have temps that are slightly higher or lower.
  14. stacv
    oh my gosh !! where are you ? where did you go ?
  15. stacv
    this may sound like a stupid question, but i just don't get this. why are we suppose to chew until food is liquid since liquid is what passes so quickly ? i thought the whole point of the band was to get food to sit in the pouch to make a feeling of fullness. so then why don't we just chew until chewed then swallow so it can sit ? am i making any sense ?
