Going For 4Th Fill Tomorrow..still No Restriction..normal?
loseit replied to Sophie99's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I think my next fill might be number 9 or 10. I have some restriction, but not enough. I have a 10cc band with 7.5cc in it. I hope the next one put me in the green zone. I want to be there before the holidays..... hang in there. -

Am I Crazy To Get Banded?? Only 25-30 Lbs To Lose.
loseit replied to janleefran's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I say go for it! You know yourself and what you want better than anyone. Just like everything else in life, don't let anyone tell you you can't do something. If you can afford it and your doctor has agreed, Do it! As you get older this battle gets harder. This will slow you down when eating. Good Luck to you. -

Things I Won"t Miss After My Surgery!

I am looking forward to crossing my legs without having to pull them over. I am looking forward to being "comfortable". I won't have to worry about my clothes being too tight. Once I loss this weight, I can wish and dream for something else... -
I had my 8th fill today. I have always been told, "clear liquids for 24 hrs, then soft foods 24hrs then regular food. I got really hungry so I ate some solid food. I feel fine. Why should I wait to eat, if I can eat without a problem?

I was banded 2.2.12. I was off for 3 days. I did not and have still not told them about my WLS. I told them I need to be off to for personal reasons. Your right, "Its not any of their business". Don't tell anyone who you think might stand in your way.
