We will be starting our 2nd cycle soon and i will admit I was low after I stopped taking it but it helped us. And I was still better than from when before i started taking it. Good luck with it and btw don't let…

wow ..let's see I am 5'4.5' so my goal right now is 175 the doc says I can get to 150 but I am big boned and I think one goal at a time. I've gone from 26-28W to 14W-16 so I am happy ..just want a lil bit more.

DO IT!! Let me tell you that sometimes making the outside pretty makes the inside wanna match it. As I have lost weight I am rewarded myself with getting my nails done or hair done and then I want to lose more and work more so that I can get something fun. As long as your not breaking the bank go fo it. In college I wasn't…

I used it and lost on it. No funny effects but was also watching what I ate and stuff so that it would help me loose more. Good luck with it.

Is there a particular brand you buy? Just curious..I think i may try it.

the parmesan aparagus sounds yummy - how do you make it?

Wow - honey you got alot going on. Yah my first thought for you is isnt there a counselor on campus you can talk to? Maybe the control is hiding something deeper going on in your life. I don't want to press that is why I reccomend a counselor or therapist. Before I started my weightloss journey I had to seea counselor and…

Welcome aboard! This is one site that i found is pro Lap-banders :) I had mine 10/09 and had dropped 70 but gainesd a bit back - but am persistent and still working on it. i hope to lose about 23 more pounds. If you need anything we are here :)

Be cautious gym scales are not the most accurate. They get pretty beaten up. Could be that your starting weight was off. I suggest trying another scale. That way you are starting fresh. That amount to drop is a bit drastic in the short time frame. Good luck!

I had lap band in oct 09 and we have that same restriction. It takes time but you do get used to it. If you do both you take the chance of getting sick so that is not fun.

Ok sorry - like I said I was just told that is what I MAY have had but I too was going to Dr. However the nurse simply expressed to me that the moisture from that band is not helping. This is why sometimes posting on here is no worth it.

Have you been exercising and sweating alot? Possibly not changing right away after a workout? I was using one of those bands that is supposed to help you sweat more - and I recently noticed some lil rash too- I was told it may be ringworm because too much moisture and stuff. So that is just another thought. Cure- Make an…
