I was banded last november and have gained weight since the band! I have been back and for fills and unfills because I go through these mucous plugs with vomiting. I have yet to get to the green zone! My frustration is overboard and the True Results clinic I go to seemo to not have any answers for me. I have met with my surgeon and just recommends that I keep it in and keep working on my diet and excersise!! Is there anyone else outhere that has had the same lack of weightloss....is it just me? I feel like a complete failure and that there is no one who can help me. I have tried to change clinics, but most surgeons will now take on banded patients. Is there someone with some help??

It seems that once I start to feel restriction and there is a lb or 2 loss, and I start to get to the zone, I suffer from liquids clogging and we throwing up meds with fluids, or ant fluids. This is usually a morning routine when I get to about 5.5cc. I flush with saline, use mucinex, claritin, benadryl, I drink hot green tea, its just a continuous cycle. Everytime I vomit I call the clinic then they remove the Fluid. I am meeting again with the nutritionist to do a body composition in two weeks. Maybe that will help in seeing some progress. Thank you all for this feed back, I should of joined this forum from the beginning. This group is quite informative and encouraging.

Thanks everyone for all this great information. I work out about 1hr at the gym with weights and cardiovascular. I used to only do spin classes 3x a week, but I think I am seeing more body changes since adding weights. Sadly, the clinic is very busy and I have only met the nutritionist twice once before banded and once after. So from what I read from my post, no one so far is having problems with allergies or mucous plugs. Wh
