  1. Happy 30th Birthday Gizmo29!

  2. thanks everyone going to try that!
  3. How often do people weigh themselves? I was banded on 12/2/11 and only lost 8 lbs pre and post surgery so I am crazy about weighing myself every day and then getting discouraged what do other people do, I feel like I am not lloosing as much weight as others and I had one fill and I am not eating alot.

  5. Hi everyone again so I got my first fill last week and it took some time but since Sunday I have been able to eat only a little. I am scheduled in another 2 weeks for another fill but I am scared then I really won't be abke to eat anything. It's weird cuz I read so much that u don't even feel Any restriction till the third or fourth fill and I am so full on my first fill. Also I seem to not be bake to keep down any chicken or meat I throw it back up? Is this normal? Does anyone else have this?
  6. i ate alot of bad things! i was sooo bad it was channukah i had latkas and donuts it was terrible, but now i m hoping this will help i had my surgery on dec 2nd.. when r u getting ur first fill? also does anyone know if there is a special diet the day of the first fill like only liquids or what?
  7. hi everyone i am getting my first fill tomorrow and i am nervous about what to expect pain wise and everything else.up until now i have had no restriction and felt exactly the same as pre surgery just as hungry and feeling even more obsessed about food. it also did not help that it was just the holidays so i gained back alot of my pre surgery weight loss. so will i feel different with this first fill. i am so obsessed with food now i think about it all the time more then pre surgery?????
  8. hi i am really confused if you are all loosing weight without a fill then what was the point of getting banded? i had the lap band dec 2nd and have had no fills and lost only 6 ibs s i am waiting to get filled so i can start to see some actual weight loss
  9. ONCE YOU GET FILLED YOU FEEL DIFFERENT THOUGH RIGHT? BECAUSE WONDERING HOW THIS HELPS YOU LOOSE WEIGHT IF NOT
  10. hi everyone again i am 12 days post op and i know i posted 10 days post op that everytime i ate i felt pain and it was like stuck feeling but now i am feeling the same exact way i felt before my surgery i am able to eat just as much as before with no discomfort so how am i suppossed to loose weight with this? i have my first fill on dec 27th does anyone else feel this?
  11. Thanks so much for ur encouragement looking for a band. Buddy wanna be mine lol
  12. Thanks so did you just do shakes again because u needed more protein or why? I hate all types of shakes even milkshakes with real nice cream !
