    Any january surgery out there

    I'm set for Jan 15th. Revision!!
  3. I've been banded for just over a yr and my Dr suggested that I have it removed bcuz my weight loss is too slow and he thinks that I won't loose anymore weight. But I'm getting the vertical sleeve done in return. I just don't feel like going thru the slight irritation for a week. I'm praying it'll be worth it in the end.

    Banded 1 yr and have it removed!!

    Well at the end of the day, I'm going to do what's best for me. They're always risk for everything we do. I always do my research and talked to my few friends that had the sleeve done. I try not to think negatively on things so serious. I will be fine. Thanks for your concerns.

    Banded 1 yr and have it removed!!

    Mis73- I've only lost 30lbs in a yr. Plus I had to have fluid removed bcuz I had acid reflux so bad. I eat about a cup of food or maybe a little more and the weight is not really coming off. I do exercise, not as much as I should as of lately. Eating less food alone should cause me to loose weight and its not.

    This Reflux Is Getting Old!

    Good news, I have no slippage but the Dr wants to remove my band and do the sleeve. He said my weight loss is too slow and I won't loose much more..

    This Reflux Is Getting Old!

    I had this same issue. The Dr unfilled 2cc out and now I'm fine. But I'm having a upper GI on Monday to make sure there's no slippage.

    Dr. Joseph Naim - Great Surgeon!!!

    He was the assisting surgeon for my surgery
  10. I'm trying to figure out why the hell I'm not able to loose this weight. In the beginning I was going to the gym 2-4 days a week for a hr. Still nothing!! Now I'm eating less and not working out but I would think eating less would cause weight loss. My 4th fill is next week, and I'm wondering if I will be in my green zone.I'm still able to eat a little more than a cup of food.
  11. Thanks you guys, I will try to keep track of my calories. That may help. I'm going to try to see a dietitian in a few wks. Is it true, the more u weigh, u loose faster?
  12. My Dr said she was going to refer me to a dietitian. I didn't see a dietitian, only spoke to one over the phone when I was going thru the process. I only got a pamphlet on what to eat and not eat.
  13. Yes,I think I eat too fast. Atleast not chewing enough. My habit is swallowing food as I chew. When I got my 3rd fill about 5wks ago I was getting stuck everytime I ate. Which I made everything come back up to get relief. Next week I go for the 4th fill, and I'm damn near scared. Not sure if I'll be able to eat.

    How Do I Get Unstuck

    I just bought the papaya enzymes from GNC. But it seems to be cheaper buying them online.

    How Do I Get Unstuck

    I just had an episode..I threw up so I could get relief. It hurts so bad that I almost get a headache. I just had my 3rd fill on thursday and started back eating Saturday night. Soft things of course but everything I eat now hurts going down. I thought I was chewing long enough but I guess not. I'm glad I'm not alone. I will be buying some papaya enzymes tomorrow!!!
  16. I'm 6wks post op..and I want some cereal. Is it possible to eat cereal now? Right now I don't feel much restriction so I'm able to eat most things.

    I Want To Eat Cereal!!!

    Well I ate some honey nut cheerios with a little milk. Had no issues!!! I eat the Greek yogurt also but not with cereal. I have to change up what I eat sometimes every few days bcuz I get bored with it.
  18. I'm 6wks post op and I had my 1st fill on 1/4. I don't have much restriction. I did read that it can take up to several fills to feel restriction. And my appetite is in full force. I still eat small portions.
  19. I was banded on Dec 1st and so far each day seems to get better. I'm currently on liquids, as of today I'm feeling hungry. Hunger pains, stomach growling. Is this normal? Can I eat some cream of wheat or pureed soup? Something? I can't see myself on liquids for 2wks.
  20. Ktandnoahsmom: No I'm not in much pain anymore. It's just really sore where I assume its the port site. Today I went out since surgery, to a few stores and the walking seems to help. Each day it gets better.
