How much is in ur band and how big is ur band?

I had them often and to the point i stopped going after wls for about 6 months then when i got back to it i found out i had to take 6 months of nutrition counseling so i told my self if it happens it happens and didnt obsess over surgery then bomb approved and surgery all of a sudden at once wow it was tough! But im glad i pushed trough the dreams!

My healthy weight is smaller than my ideal weight! Iv always been chunky hanging around 175 since middle school! My goal now is 150 even though its only a 25 lb difference thats major to me and im excited to see the new me!

My nutritionist says my body will only digest 20-30 grms of protein a meals any more than this is just a waiste!

Id ho to dr asap! If its infection u dont want it spreading

True my mom had chest pain and it was her gb

Oh im 6 weeks out and my belching is uncontrollable n loud n nasty nothings helps tho!

My doc said no capsule till solid food was introduced! Try a heating pad did me wonders!

My doc said crush pills as fine as possible with. A small amount of applesauce! I did and was fine!

Any care pertaining to the band is done by my surgeon my primary can feel around and xray but in the end cant help me at all unless emergency! My surgeon is very admit about doing all cares even tho he is over an hour away! Hope this helps my advise call ur surgeons nurse and just ask!

I can relate im 6 wks po but when i was on my pre op diet i did too cheat im not one to scold but please remember if u cheat watch what ur cheating with! I would naw on carrots or something of that sort sf stuff! My fav was broth tho! Good luck and i hope it gets easier for u!

Woohoo welcome welcome slow down thats wise advise dont hurry into anything other than walking Congrats hun!

Took me 4 days and iv never really been a tummy sleep for some reason i am now lol!

My husband was the worst! And especially dinning out! I finally have gotten to a stable comfortable point and i think he sees that because he no longer does it! Everyone else has been fine!

I seem to look in the mirror everyday and wish for change so much i start to believe im seeing it! I am losing that im happy for you but i just thought with what iv lost i should notice more like loose clothing stuff like that and notta! The only thing i actually feel is flabbier tummy section! Ugh sorry just needed to vent a little!

I believe i ate too fast and i believe i had pb issues i dont wanna sound gross with detail but i got sick and all that came out was a bunch of snot. Is this indeed pbing because i almost got sick getting sick lol!

Thank you!

I propped pillows under my stomach to reduce until it no longer bothered me!

My surgeon said if i gurgle or feel as if liquid floats before going down its too tight! There should never be any problems with fluids ever!

Thats awesome itll go by quickly! It did for me anyway! Good luck!

Ok so no matter how hard I try to eat 1000 calories a day I can never make it most the time I can even make it past 500 calories my doctor says when I'm not hungry don't eat. Most mornings when I wake up I'm not hungry at all and I usually don't get hungry about 2 and then I'm hungry all afternoon. Even so I still cannot get 2000 calories a day that I need plus the exercise burns what I do you get. I do you make sure however that I try to get close to the protein amount that I am supposed to have a date so I come pretty close to that just not the calories. Any suggestions?

Sorry 100 calories not 2000

I have a dr rule! IF ITS WHITE DONT EAT IT! BUT i dont eat any breads rice pasta and fastfood! Or grilled chicken cuz its too dry! Im doing fine without it!

My surgeon showed me the 2 cc he put in and showed me the 2 he pulled out for the total of 4 ccs sounds like ur fills are very small to b where ur at with 5 fills!

Slim fast has some good shakes my fav is cappuccino delight so yummy!
