Hi! I am new to this site, and am looking for friends and advise. I had my lapband on 9/24/10, since then I lost 30lbs in the first month and nothing since. I have just had my second fill on 12/23/10, I do now feel restriction meat always gets stuck and have vomitted a few times. Because of that I am very careful about what I will eat, I am back to thick liquids, like pudding consistency. I don't understand why I am having such a hard time loosing anymore weight!! I don't eat alot and do skip meals and have slacked off on my protein shakes. Could that be the reason? I can understand maybe not loosing, but gaining???? I do drink like 5 bottles of water a day so I think my water intake is good. I am very upset and need help. I haven't been able to find a support group close to me and don't know anyone that has had this problem so I am hoping I can find some friends and support here because God knows no one in my home has a weight issue but me!!! I don't excersise much, but would love to find someone to work out with. I have a serious back injury (have had 2 failed surgeries) but love to exercise anyway-I push through the pain. If anyone has any advise for me I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks

Thanks for all your advise, God knows I need all I can get!! I did start back on the protein shakes and am making sure I don't skip meals anymore. This is a great place to get much needed advise and tips. Thanks again!
