I think i'm finally where i'm supposed to be, finally. I had my fill today and now i'm at 9.23cc. I had to get a little taken out because i couldn't eat or drink anything. When i weighed in i was at 206 and i started in at 271 and my goal is to get under 200lbs. It has been a long year but i'm so happy to finally reach my goal. I want to give you all out there some hope because at first i thought it was going sooo slow that i would never reach my goal but i'm almost there, so everyone out there, keep up the good work because you will get there. I also want to tell some of you that you won't be on liquids all the time, i can finally eat what i want but only 4 or 5 bits at a time..i'm fixing to eat a chicken sandwich now. so don't lose hope you will get there !!!!

hello everyone, hope you all had a wonderful christmas, and did't over in duldge...lol...I went to the Dr. and got another fill and it's at 9.25 now. I got home and i'm not able to drink anything in the mornings. I't takes me about 3 hours to swollow drink without making come back up. I really want to know if theres anybody out there that when you drink, your silivia tripples and you have to spit out what keeps producing to keep from gaging??? I've only been able to eat soup once a day other that that i can't eat anything or drink anything, so i called the Dr. and i have to go back Monday to have some fluid taken back out. If i could drink something i wouldn't go back to the Dr. because it's really helping me lose weight, but they say somethings not right with me and my fluied.... Has anyone had the problem with the drinking deal or am i alone out there with this silivi thing.....someone please respond to me and let me know what's going on with me.

I had surgrey a year ago and my weight loss is very very slow. So far i have lost 63lbs which is good but ifeel its going too slow. I have lost 80% of it in my back side..lol.but you can hardley tell it in my face. I had my surgrey in Gainsville GA by Dr. Richards and he is a wonderful Dr. I have only been losing around 5 to 8lbs a month and other people i know have lost around 10 to 13lbs a month. I'm losing battery i will wright later

I had my surgrey last year and it seams like it is taken forever to loose weight, i have lost 63lbs so far but thats not much for having this band on for a year. I average out only 5 to 7 pounds a month. I see pictures of people that got this lapband and they are loosing around 10lbs a month. Am i doing something wrong? Does anyone have some good advise for me, because where i live theres noone to talk to, and i don't know what to expect.....need advise please...thanks
