yea. i had some issues earlier. went back to hot liquids. but i ate dinner fine. but i am feeling better. thank you. and my drs awesome. he takes personal calls and will meet you at his office at 2am if you need him to.

ok. first reply. its somewhere in between full and stuck. i only had 3 tbls and it takes much more than that to make me full. thats just what it feels like. like a minor stuck. 2nd reply. no foods have bothered me yet. i have tried pretty much everything except steak, and ive had Peanut Butter more than once. but it was a different brand. more natural and therefor more sticky. might be what happened. 3rd reply. it wasnt on bread. it will be a long time away if i ever eat bread again. so basically i called my dr and he said the peanut butter was prolly partially blocking everything. he told me to drink some hot liquid to loosen everything and disolve the butter. so been doing that all night. still feel really full but i can tell its helping. thx for responding guys. hopefully it will be better tomorrow.

im 4 ish weeks post op and have never hat problems, but today i had some peanut butter and omg. i feel super full and i wondering if im stuck. its been a few hours and its feals worse if anything. i tried sipping some water. im starting to panic. if its stuck wouldnt my body try to pb?

hey. thx for all the comments. im still not sure what it was/is, but its going away. i was pretty sure it wasnt kidneys and or gall bladder because it was higher up that that. its possible its partly constipation. its hard to tell since im not going to go the same amount i did before just from the food volume diiference. lol. might be my body trying to get used to the change. idk. but its going away i think.

ok. so im about 2 weeks post op and last night i started getting weird pains in my back/rib/organ area. its like a weird aching. i thought it was gas so i took a gas x, but when i got up this morning it was still there. i dont even know if this is lapband related but it really hurts. have you guys heard of anything like this? all my other pains from lap band are pretty much gone since 1st week.

my bmi is well over 40. (cant remember exactly), but im about 280lbs and 5'4.5'' . i did a full physch test along with 3 sessions. did the nutritionist and paper work is being filled out now. again idk why my dr office didnt have me do that the first time. mostly past weight loss attempts have been calorie counting and working out, but i have also done weight watchers. i really do love my dr. he really seems to care, and know what hes doing. he has great success rates. i just hate the idiots that work in his office. i should prolly just go down there and have a meeting with them face to face.

well guys. they denied me after everyone i talked with said i would be approved. i dont understand. i fit the requirements. its a real cluster f**k. anything that could slow the process down has happened or will. now they are saying my dr didnt include the past weight loss attempts. so we have to re submit. but if they dont except it then ive wasted all this time and should have just been forming a new 6 month diet log. but everyones saying not to do that. idk. my mom has offered to self pay for me, and she has the money, but i would still feel guilty. i have a hard time spending my own money and i hate watching other ppl do it. i know im just whining, but im really fed up with the whole process. me and my mom have had to play the middle man between the insurance and my drs office since apparently they cant handle that themselves. im not giving up, im just fed up. not sure what the next step is.

hey! i am 19 and my mom is 49 and we are doing the lapband together. waiting for a call from insurance but we think we're approved. super excited. glad im doing this young. if you want more info i would start floating around the weight loss community on youtube.

im on nuva ring. only complaints is that i can never get it in far enough and it always like "Right there" if you know what i mean. and i pms on it really bad. didnt when i was on yaz and seasonial

1st off, your NOT a failure. everybodys going to have ups and downs in this journey. but if you feel like you should be further then GO further. only your head is holding you back! take a look at what your really doing. are you eating exactly what you should be? are you excersing enough? if you are then you will go far! give your body time. sometimes you have to wait for your body to catch up. but just remember, if you make a bad choice, is doesnt mean its over. we beat ourselves up when its really so easy to forgive, forget, and get back on track. :welldoneclap:

thx guys! i will keep you all updated.

lmao. i bet. hopefully i stay clear of drive thrus.

i know, it isnt. i will keep in touch with you. hopefully u get there.
