You are sitting there with a needle in your stomach and they give you a glass of water, I never know how much to drink and when to tell the Dr. I'm 2 years out and still fat.

What's So Bad About Cheating On The Post-Op Diet?
Bellagirl replied to Jean McMillan's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Magazine
I dont ever get on this site but something made me do it today and reading this is exactly why I was led here. I needed this so badly. Thank you for the tough love but also the true words. No magic pill. -
Complications With Lap Band 4 Years Out
Bellagirl replied to cknight's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Oh my gosh, I could have written that myself. I am over 2 years out and just recently went back to the dr for a fill. I havent lost the way I know I should have and am disgusted with myself. I have vomited in many bathrooms in many restaurants in my town. Reading your blog has been an eye opener to me. Just as I am finishing eating a piece of banana bread. I want to be thin so bad but continuously sabotage myself. Knowing what you are going through, I will definitely think about that before I put a piece of bread in my mouth again. Now that you have made changes, how has that been for you. Have you started losing again. -

What Are The Secrets Of A Fill
Bellagirl replied to Bellagirl's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I guess every dr does it differently. He inserts the needle then has me sit up with the needle still protruding then has me drink then when I tell him I feel it, he removes the needle. I am so tired of being fat and thought this would be my magic pill of sorts. -
What Are The Secrets Of A Fill
Bellagirl replied to Bellagirl's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
He inserts the needle, has me sit up then gives me a glass of water to drink and tells me to drink till I feel it. I never know how much that is. I am 2 years out and have lost 35 pounds but still have 60 to go. I have almost given up and I know my husband has. -

The dr is directing it but I never know how much to drink. I want a tight fill but dont know if I need to drink a few sips or the entire glass.
