  1. Happy 42nd Birthday trinitys_mom!

  2. Happy 41st Birthday trinitys_mom!

  3. Congratulations!!!! Just think...your band is already in place and just needs to be filled again to lose that baby weight! The band is awesome! Keep me posted!

  4. Well, I am unfilled completely!!! I lost just about 75lbs and found out we are pregnant!! Due in March! Dr. Lufti told me not to balloon up and to get right back into the office as soon as I recover. I am not doing too bad only gained 15 lbs and I'm 4 1/2 months along. It is scary because food tastes sooooo good! lol

  5. Hey girl! It has been ahwile. I'm doing good. How's your band been treating you?

  6. Hey girl,

    It's been a while! How are you? You are shrinking! lol

    still unfilled...

    Seen the new doctor and he did not want to fill me. He told me losing a 1/2 pound a week was doing well. I don't see it that way!! I have another appt. on Feb 6th and he said if I still feel the same he will fill me. I think I need to be filled I am starting to get hungry all the time and can eat way more than I used to. crossing my fingers

    Getting filled again..

    It has been a little over 3 months since I was unfilled a cc. I have an appt. on the 29th to have a fill. I have not lost any weight since the unfilling, I have stayed exactly the same weight! I no longer vomit or slime and can eat a variety of foods but not losing any weight! Hopefully this time around things will work out better! Crossing my fingers!

  11. Has anyone had the problem of not being able to keep protein down? I was filled at the end of June and ever since I can not eat protein!!! I cut it into very small pieces and chew at least 50 times but it still gets stuck and I eventually throw it up!! I seen the doctor yesterday and he unfilled me 1cc and he said that might work, has anyone been unfilled for this reason. I am down almost 50lbs but it is not a healthy way to loose weight. I am living on coffee and water and I am soooo hungry. I feel like an anorexic trapped in a fat body!!! Any suggestions for this problem please write me. Thank you

    getting unfilled

    Well, for over a month now I have not been able to keep anything down! I have been living on coffee and water. Not very healthy, I know, but either the food is getting stuck or I am sliming, or I am vomiting. I can not take this anymore!!! I was filled to 4cc in June and have been having a problem ever since!! I went to the doctor yesterday and he took 1cc out of the band and we will see if that helps. I can not eat any type of protein at all. My hair is starting to fall out and my nails are breaking off. I have been taking my vitamins and calcium chews but that is just not enough. I will write more when I see if this works.

  14. I had my surgery on May 24th and my first fill on June 25th. The problem is I can not eat I can only hold down about 3 cherries and a chicken wing a day. Is this normal? The Doc said about 2 weeks after the fill I will be able to eat more, but I am a little nervous that this kind of eating is just as dangerous as over eating. If anyone else is going through this or has went through this please let me know. Thank you

    Surgery scheduled for 7/12

    Hey Linda, I had surgery on May 24, 07 and I lost 25lbs before the surgery mainly because of the liquid diet! I had my first fill on June 25th and I have lost 10 lbs. I hope this helps. Good Luck!
