    I have failed my band - SUPPORT GROUP

    Hi everyone. I had my surgery last year on Aug 19th. I went from 228 to 199 at some point. Right now I am weighing 220. It has t been easy at all. I haven't had time to workout since I'm a workaholic! I know I need to start somewhere but it's been hard. I'll get motivated and start dieting and walking but it only lasts about 2 weeks. Then I'll start overeating and get very discouraged.

    Hi everyone...havent posted anything since I signed up for it. Its good to see everyones progress. Has anyone been having issues with their hair? I lost about 30% of my hair. I really took it hard, got very depressed. I wasnt aware that it was due to lack of protein until I researched it. I stopped drinking my protein in hopes that the food I ate would be enough but I was wrong. I started drinking at least 60 oz of protein daily and I also take a vitamin specially for the hair. The hair loss stopped. Now I need my hair to grow back! I've lost 27 lbs since the pre op diet and surgery (8/19/11). I havent been working out as I should. Tonight was my first night working out again. I really need to stay on track. I also need to eat slower and chew, chew, chew! My food gets stuck and it is paunful. I also start sneezing and my nose gets runny, bad combination because sneezing makes its worse. Not sure if Im ready for another fill yet, my last fill was Nov 19th, Im up to 7cc's now. Sometimes my area around my port gets swollen and it hurts. =( Keep it everyone! We need to motiviate eachother. I will definetly continue to post and get inspired by all of you. Like GG said, "this is our year and we can do this"! =)

    Calling all A11s!!

    My name is Angelica, I am 33 yrs old, no kids. Starting weight was 228, day of surgery 220 (8/19/11). Today I am 218...Yay!! I am feeling very bloated. I had a gasx chewable, its helping a little.
  5. Hi everyone....I am new to this site. I am hoping to to get feedback from those of you that have had the surgery or that are in the process of getting it. I am 33 years old and I have been overweight since I can remember. I was diagnosed with PCOS in 2000 and with RA in 2002. I have always tried to diet and exercise but always loose motivation after 2-3 weeks into it. Or I get injured from over doing it and stop going to the gym. My current weight is 228, this is the highest that I have been. After my divorce 3 years ago, I decided that 2011 was going to be my year! Here I am a few days away from surgery and I am so excited and nervous at the same time. I have been on the liquid diet since last Monday. Today is day 8 and I am feeling goof. Not so sure how many lbs I have kist because my scale went crazy on Saturday, Have to go out and get a new one.Well, hope to hear from someone.
