    upset

    Frustrating, but note you HAVE lost 40 pounds! It sure beats gaining!

    Sucking Air

    No clue... that's new one to me.

    It sounds like gall bladder.

    6-8 weeks is when I restarted Pilates.

    Period with fill

    I don't have TOM anymore, but I have read here that many report band feels tighter. Probably extra fluids in the body.

    Hungry!!!????

    Hang in there. It gets better and you will be so thin soon!
  7. Donna... keep a positive attitude. Compare yourself to yourself pre-surgery. Not every little thing can be a downer.

    Getting rebanded after constant malfunction

    Wow... you have had a tough trip! I hope the new band will behave for you. I had had not problems with mine (knock on wood) for 13 months. My very best to you on you new baby and new band!

    What To Expect After Band Removal

    Expect weight gain unless you are very strict to the eating plan.

    Family support

    I told my husband, two closest friends, and 2 daughters. Wish I had skipped the daughters. Not supportive and scared I would die I think. Evaluate your kids... you know how they will react, bif you are not sure of support, skip telling them until after.

    Hiccups

    Nope... if you are eating when it happens it generally means you are full.

    Are you kidding me with this diet?

    It is not a diet, it's a life style change!

    question

    If you had a mini stuck episode, you may need to do a day of liquids to give the band area a chance to settle down.
  16. Healing phase... and the port is sensitive to how you sit if you stay in one position for too long.

    Is it possible to not be eating enough

    It is possible to slow the metabolism down if you don't eat enough calories. Ask you dietician for a recommendation for you.

    Fill once a week

    Most fills are billed and you will have copay. Once a week seems a bit fast to me. The goal is to lose slowly over time, not in a short time. Fast weight loss places too much stress on the system. I have a good friend who has lost 80 pounds with NO FILLS in 6 months, just by following the Lap Band eating rules and portions.

    Pain eating and drinking after fill...

    Sounds like you need to unfill a bit. Take it easy until you can get to the doctor.

    Unjury question

    I am known to be lactose intolerant and I can use Unjury with no symptoms in Almond Milk. Higher in calcium, low in calories and carbs. Tastes great!

  24. Everyone is different, some feel the fill right away. If it is an early fill, it make take a few to get good restriction
