PRE filled band (during surgery)
Zoiecat71 replied to Wanna-Be-Healthy's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi my band was filled during surgery 3cc I think. It turned out to be too much , too soon for me. Had a hard time recovering from surgery and Dr had to unfill. Once he did I got use to my band and had a fill about 6-8 wks after surgery. Good luck on your journey : ) I was banded 2 yrs ago and I'm down 100pds. -
I think the heat does effect my band. I live in Virginia and it's been so hot and muggy the past couple of weeks. Some days it's hard to keep liquids down.

I had no idea I had one until I woke up after surgery and the nurse told me. My Dr fixed it with a few stitches and I haven't had any heartburn since. Good luck

Hi Everyone. I was banded the last week in May 2011. My starting weight was 293 and now i'm down to 259. I'm not looking for complements but when will people say " Wow ! You've lost weight ! " Maybe the bigger you are , the more weight you must lose for people to notice ? Thanks

Way to go !!!!!!!! That's awesome !! -
Awesome !!! Congrats!! I remember being at Busch Gardens in Williamsburg, Va and being asked to get off because the bar wouldn't come down enough. I was banded the last week in May 2011 and have lost 34 pds so far. Looking forward to riding roller coasters next spring.
