My Job


I am a Medical Lab Tech, I am the one who does all of the Lab testing the Doc's order. I am usually pushing buttons on instruments and at the computer most days, so not a LOT of physical labor, mostly standing.I hope my band can help.

The benefits of high risk employment is early retirement :-)
Been retired almost 4 years, but now awfully busy as a college instructor. It beats working for a living!

C.College Program Director. As many have stated, not much physical activity, but I love sports. Especially basketball. 2 months post op and down about 30. I had my second fill last Monday, I believe I need more.

CPA here. My choice of professions sure didn't help my predicament. Now that I've lost over 120 pounds with the band I actually enjoy getting out and being active.

Wow, 120! How long did it take? I'm still not sure if I'm properly restricted. I can eat over 2 cups of food and bread, but I am making much better choices. The exercise thing has not been going well. I'm working on getting my pool open this weekend, hoping this will help as I love to swim. Any suggestions?

It took about 11 months. Keep in mind that the band is not supposed to tell you when you are full. As my doctor says, "that is your job." The band merely helps you feel satisfied with less. I don't drink any calories other than light juice (40 cals) or G2 (25 cals). And I try to walk 45 mins a day. That's about it. Well, that and eating small portions. ;)

45 minutes a day?, I start tomorrow!, can't tell you how much that advice means. As they say in life, little things mean a lot.
