Biography
Was originally banded in 2005. I lost restriction after an adjustment that damaged by tubing leading to my band. I sat on it for 7 years and have now decided to have it fixed and continue on my weight loss journey.

I had surgery Jan 7 2012. I Have lost 24 pounds. I know that's a great loss but this week as been very slow. Doing everything I should be doing. -
I just had a band to sleeve revision in January. I was never happy with my band. I threw up constantly! My band slipped and I developed a leak in my tubing. I feel so much better. I am very happy with my decision and down 25 pounds already.

Thank you...I was doing it on my iPad and it doesn't show goals. Found it on my laptop.

Does anyone know if you can adjust the proteins and carbs? If so how? Thank you

Hi I just had my band removed and sleeved 9 days ago. I feel fantastic! I hated my band nothing but problems. I have lost 12 pounds and feel great. My recommendation would be to make sure your surgeon is skilled in revision. Good luck. -

Thought I might share this everyone. I had my surgery 6 ads ago and feeling fantastic. In the hospital they had given me a pain killer that made me so nauseous. May Dr and nurse told me they had just attended a seminar on using 1,000mg Tylenol in your IV after surgery for pain. This was truly my turning point. No more nauseous no more dizziness no more pain. Just thought I would let you guys know!

Tearful and frustation... Just want my energy back!

I have no pain. More like tenderness. I haven't taken any of the pain pills. They made me so nauseous. My husband has made a few new soup recipes (smooth) so yummy. It was hard today with football no dips and cocktails....I actually feel better. I am getting all protein and water in. Really miss diet coke
