I can't drink when I eat or I get plug , but I do Wait a couple mins ,and then sip then I'll eat wait a couple min sip again, and it works fine

My fill didn't hurt , the doc numb the area first mine did , It's nothing to stress over , you can handle , I'm sure

Yeh I've have my band 10 mos and just now got a fill , I've got 3cc now ,came home and ate I was starving , my doc is slow also and he doesn't like doing fills , the head nurse said that i shouldn't need fills that I should be able to lose the Wieght on my own , then I said what the use of the band ? Just hang around ? The doc said will it might of losing up some sense the operation and that's when he dicided to add some , thank god! Cause I've already gain 9 lbs back , so right now I'm grateful that I got 3 cc in 10 mos . And I was told not to expect more from the head nurse ,she doesn't like me at all

I'm 10 mo band got my first fill today so now I have 3cc in my band .im so happy hope this helps me , I've gain 9 lbs sense last visit ,

Ive. Had my band 9 mos no fills and am starving ,

Update , went to my app yesterday , I had all my food records and exercise records, like I was told to.I started 300lbs now 262.4 , I've gained back another 4 lbs, of course never got to see the doc , only the nurse, and she told me that my band hold 12 cc at the most that they will allow anyone to have is 4cc, and she told me that 7 mos is to soon to get a fill, she said my food records look rally good as for me being hungry and truly feeling that I need fill, she said all that was in my head. Also she said that I shouldn't belive everything I read in the group, I was so upset , crying , I told her that , I feel as this band is just setting in me and your wanting me to be on the 800 cal diet and starve but not use the band , I said what the hell? Why do I have it then ? That they might as well take it out because its no diff as if it wasn't in me , , I left crying feeling like what the heck did I get myself into? Letting them put this thing in me for no reason, I felt like maybe I'm just meant to be fat , and why keep trying ? Because I starting to gain my wieght back . Yes count my cal coming out my butt, but I'm hurry , and I got fat over the years cause I have a hard time staying on a diet, or I wouldn't be in the shape that I'm in, I thought the lap band was Supose to help me by curbing my hunger , guess it just to hang around in me for idk? But I really do feel let down and feel like giving up, idk what I'm going to do , I think I'm going to demand that I can be ref to another doc , and if I still can't get any fills , then I'm just going to have it taking out, no reason to keep it, at first when I got it , it worked good , but not now . And 7 mos out and still no fills , that trip to the doctor yesterday , turn out to be 5 hour trip , just so the nurse. Could tell me that the doc will be gone for 3 weeks . And that it's to soon for a fill , she could of told me that on the phone, she said that she will call in the next mo or two to set up app. So that they can check out the band and make sure it's. ok, crazy!!!!!!! I'm not planning on going back to Ucdavis clinic, I'll get another doc and see how it goes with him , so what , that I may have to travel another 3 hours out of the way, I just got to do what I got to do , I'm feeling like there is no hope, sorry to be such a downer, and I'm happy for those of you doing good, and have good doctors , keep up the hood work, I'm guessing it just wasn't meant for me, thanks for listening to me whine and complain, sorry

Thanks everyone , yeh starting tomarrow morn , I'm going to start making. Some calls to find another doctor , they gave me another doctor app with only the nurse no doc in feb , but don't think I'll be going to it , I'm going to do my best to find another doctor , thanks again ,

Thank you , really I should have that many cal. Wow ! No wonder I'm starving , !

I just changed my profile pic it's the same on face book

I'm on face book a lot , do you do face book? Face book I know how to do , lol. I'm Teri Johnson from gridley cal . My profile pic is diff then this one

How long have you had ur band ? How's it working for you?

7 chihuahuas my little buddies

And I thank you , belive me , I need all the help I can get , yes I exercise I walk 2 hours every day , I got 7 dogs that I walk everyday down the tracks , down the bike path and around the block and back home, that's pretty good for me considering not to long ago if I could walk to my front door I was doing good,

I'm 54 years old

Idk ? Think it was being uncomfortable with my looks , depresstoin , hate me myself more everyday for being fat, and maybe punishing me ? I also like foods , think that food was use as some kind of comfort , I'm so unhappy with me that eating was the only temp thing that made me feel good at the moment then it was back to be ashame of myself , also all the medication that I'm on , some make me hungery and want to eat , some just say that they can make you gain wieght , I'm on a lot of mental Meds for bipolar , pts, anixitys, depresstoin , blood pressure . And then I got to big to do much activity , that I. Just stay in my room . It hurt to much to do much of anything , it gotten alittle better sense I've lost some wieght now
