miss and sand and band gave some great advice...i suggest you listen to do it.. you dont need to spend one cent to exercise..........WALK walk far, go up and down inclines...trust me, its a work out and by not seeing your dr, you know you are only hurting/hindering yourself...the dr knows what you look like and weighed, so they know you have a weight problem....get rid of the woe is me and i am embarrassed bs......go see the dr, let them make sure your band is working as it should and start back eating your allotted amounts, better option foods (you know what you eat and what makes us gain weight, we all do)..you say you are stuck...i dont believe that.....you have a great tool to help you eat less.....they gave you how to use it guidance...i bet if you start doing what you were, i will happen again..to lose weight, you must eat less calories than you burn off...only you know if you do that or not...and i reckon you do because of the 60+ pounds you loss already......GREAT job see, you CAN do this

sorry to hear of your issues but am glad you are okay thank you for posting what happened to you...i for one appreciate it. a lesson to do as our doctors instructed for best results...and why it is vital to keep a great relationship with the dr by continuing to go to dr appts and having the band checked under fluro and always watching for anything that doesnt seem/feel right...its our job to use the band as best we can..

you got to find ways to (get it) i start my days off with a protein shake that is 28 grams per scoop plus the 8 grams for the milk i use, and that gets me off to a good start on my quota for the day.....i eat lean protein first and its mainly beef/steak or chicken breast..and i have been known to drink shakes whenever because the one i use, i happen to love love the taste...i also eat a high protein bar if i want a snack...just find ways...look online like i did and print out a list of high protein foods and have at it...good choices and creative combinations

inches or pounds lost is a loss i happily would take either..

i read the post you referenced as rudehaving someone say call the dr is not rude..it is the right thing to do..and the person who advised you, well, i dont have to say much as you can clearly see the success. if you want help/support, this forum can offer you that but if in pain, doubt, concern, always refer to your doctor. heck i could be fat elvis sitting here typing this instead of short tanned gorgeous southern woman.

you rude a** bi*tch :wub:

having someone say call your doctor is the right thing to do. you are not stuck, you can call his office/speak to his nurse or even the local ER if you are concerned.. if it is not red, oozing, hot to touch, it is most likely fine its sore/healing as the dr cut you and sewn something into your skin so its gonna be uncomfy.

as long as you are losing is what matters its not a race....the journey is to arrive at the destination.. no matter how long it takes but as long as you get there.

protein shake and coffee for me.........around 10 i may have some oatmeal or a high protein bar..i eat when hungry and try to make it filling and as protein filled as i can...

worst part of having WLS (mine was band/plication) was that i did not have it sooner..nothing i dont like about it i love everything about it..

like mis, i see mine monthly i have no problem calling my dr with questions.. WLS is a major surgery and it needs to be treated with respect always refer to your doctors for anything....and everything.

i changed my life with the help of my chosen WLS and also because it was getting hard to wipe my butt...it was a decision that needed to be made...no need for negative as we deal with that 24/7 and in our lives at work and elsewhere and on this forum...does no one any good and accomplishes nothing....it is what it is......and if one wants to lose weight, they either help the band or WLS or they dont......i merely chose too thanks for the very nice words. made me smile today and lord knows i am gonna need it today.

nothing wrong with batteries.......because when hub is wore out and i want to keep on going......comes in handy.......just a saying especially if one thought i was referring to me preferring plastic to the real deal......as there is a big reason i am still married to love stud for 29+ years now..
