I weigh weekly because every day would drive me crazy. I do not own a scale. I do understand why people weigh more often. I have learned on here that there is no wrong answer and everyone has to do what works for them.

I woke up early this morning and ate something went back to sleep and woke up choking. It is important to not eat close to the time you go to sleep. It is such a scary feeling. Please also call your doctor. Be healthy!

Wow so sorry you have had such a difficult time. I would strongly advise you find a way to get the fluro and make sure your band is ok. Then you can get back on track and continued success. Reflux is usually a sign of being too tight. Please take care of yourself. Your family needs you to be healthy.

I am sure you are not the only one but I strongly urge you to leave that behind and stay on track. You need to heal and you can do serious damage to your band. You also want to start your journey on the right track. Let it go and try really hard to follow your doctors guidelines. You had the surgery because you want positive results. You need to change your way of eating and learn to not go back to bad habits. Best of luck to you!!

I drink a lot of plain water and usually one low calorie Gatorade. I find if I drink too much powder drinks it irritates my mouth.

I was told by my doctor that the lap band has or had a little already in it but I have not been able to verify that anywhere so it is probalby wrong. Anyway, everyone id different. I dont know anyone that needed to take pain pills because of a fill. I hope you are on liquids for a couple days. Best of luck .

You sound like me. Same thing kept off 50 started back on track end of October and have lost 94 altogether. I just had a .25 fill. Some times you just need a little tweak! Hang in there. If I can do this anyone can!! I would focus more on the how much you are eating and not how much you can eat. Most of us can eat a lot more then we should be eating. It also depends on what you eat. Try to eat high protein solids. -
Awesome Congrats!!!!!!

Yeah I agree pictures dont lie. Also make sure you keep up with your measurements. There maybe be times you cant tell and those measurements will be golden.

I thought I was prepared and knew how hard it was. I had no idea. It is a really good idea to start breaking some bad habits now like no carbonated drinks, no drinking while eating, smaller bites and slowing your meals down. Best of lucky. You can do it!!!
