I've done the nutrition consults but they say I'm eating what I should minus the sugar binge and have no idea what's going on either. Then they start trying to guilt me telling me I'm lying about my food. If I'm telling them about the after meal sugar fix how am I lying?

No I don't need a fill. Plus they can't adjust it right claimed the natural shape if my stomach causes it to be tight or loose no middle ground. I eat the amount I should at dinner for example and feel full but then I'm hungry a short time later. I think maybe its too tight and I stop eating before I've had enough. Then it passes quickly which would imply its to loose. So them I'm hungry but feel that need for sugar cuz I don't want to eat another meal.

I have had my band for 1 1/2 years and I've lost hardly any weight. What I have lost is coming back on rapidly. I definately have reduced the amount I eat at meals but 30 mins later I'm hungry and start looking for a satisfying sugar fix. I understand the nutrition component and its importance, but it's not lack of understanding. I know what to eat, I just can't seem to do it. The exercise component was going great until a few weeks ago i found out i have compartment syndrome. This should be fixed soon so im not worried but the inability to control sugar urges is really bothering me. Anyone else have this problem?

For about six months after my surgery I was getting thrush in my mouth every three weeks- they tested for everything through blood work and said everything was fine. I still kept getting it and then they decided it was my body's reaction to surgery. And then it just went away. I think perhaps, although odd and annoying, that it's a coping mechanism for the body.

I only told my fiancé, my mom, and my brother. When people ask me how I'm losing weight I tell then with a lot of hard work- people don't need to know everything and chances are they will judge you- if they are critical of the surgery then they don't need to know about it- hence why my father and friends don't know
