I mean i cant understand that chart they have at the docs office,i dont know if i comfortable or too comrfotable.. you know what i mean? im supposed to go see the doctor for my first adjustment, does it hurt?

Wow yea im totally feeling the way you are.. im post op (april 18th) and only lost 16 pounds.. there must be something im doing wrong? am i not drinking enough of that horrid protein shake? not enough water? idk.. but i want to loose 100 lbs.. and then im still sore but im scared to begin workouts again. idk what to do so ill be seeing the doctor of the 28th for an adjustment. begining to feel discouraged.

thanks everyone for th replies,, you are looking great! since my surgery ive lost 20 pounds.. but thats only the beginning..

Thanks Everyone! im glad to know that i have so much in common with others across the country.. thank you and i wish luck on all of our journeys!

SInce i decided to get this done, many people either have commended me or ridiculed me. The main reason why people think I got the Lap Band, is becuase they think i just want to be skinny woman, no, not at all actually , im doing this becuase it will help me not only lead a healthy life and examply for my son, but it will bring me much more out of life. iM ONLY 26 AND i HAVE SLEEP APNEA! border line diebetic and other stuff, hormonal inbalances, and more.. Itll all be gone when the weight is gone. There is nothing better than spending a nice sunny afternoon playing tag or whatever with your kids, not feeling too tired to participate, its great! Also, not deaing with the constant dull shooting pain up and down your legs becuase they cant take holding you up much longer, going shopping and not having to settle for the not so cute fashion becuase its the only ones that come i your size, finally, looking in the mirror and simply LOVEING what you see. SO TAKE THAT HATERS!

At gottobeme, thanks hun yes ill be calling them in the morning for sure,, yes you are right it is always better to be safe than sorry.

Aww Thanks you guys, I just feel lousy and the meds work but dont work if you know what i mean. At pretty in pink,, yes my tatts would feel like that too,, dont know why i never thought of it like that before. Guess I'm just paranoid. the far left incision was bad and I guess as I cough more, it bled through. So i had to change the dressing. Ugh i hate this! and my next appt with my doctor isnt untill the 27th, smh..

HI! Ok my issue is that i just got banded on Wednesday, and well I'm feeling ok for the most part, but the port and the insicion right next to it (on my far left side) is hot. The doctor and nurses told me to breath deep and cough so the fluids in my lungs can go away to avoid getting sick, so thats what I've been doing, It hurts a lot to do that. I mean if they are hot to the touch does it mean they are in the process of healing?? Or is it a sign of infection? Should I chill out and sit back or go about my day? Please help!
