Not doing well with my band....
Iluvharleys replied to Connorsmom's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I'll second that Jack! If your doctor is still taking the insurance for a while then I would start there and see if you can at least get more fill. If not, then try to find a different doctor or do a self pay for a fill. Maybe with proper restriction you will start losing again. good luck! -
Congrats on your approval! Let us know when you get the date!:clap2: :clap2: :clap2:

How long does it take stitches to heal
Iluvharleys replied to bkwalling's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I would probably say about 2 weeks they were pretty good, but my doctor didn't allow me to take a bath till about 4 or 5 wks out. -
Welcome to LBT! Good luck and keep us posted! Glad you quit lurking and decided to post with us!

Good Morning Y'all! Whoooooo Hoooooo Kat! Doing the "Happy Dance" for you!!!!!:clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: You have done awsome with your band! Sherry - I would march right over there and bitch like crazy! If they don't see your way of doing things then go to the Superintendent of schools. That is crazy! He is willing to come to class and participate any way he can and for them to tell him he can't is just not right! Tell them you are contacting the news too! Heck, us Texas gals will come up there and whip their butts if they don't see your side of it! Deb - My doctor told me protein had nothing to do with the hair loss. He said it was hormones and there isn't much you can do about it. If you feel, it is growing in as fast as it is falling out. I lost a lot of mine, it really got thin, but it does grow back pretty fast. You won't go bald even if you think you are going to! Beanie - Have you heard anymore from the job? Where is everyone at? We had some pretty rough storms last night (most of it missed us by a thin hair) did everyone survive it? I hope y'all didn't get any damage from it. Well, gotta run, everyone have a great day!

Congrats on the date! It's only natural to be nervous!

Welcome to LBT and to bandland! Use a heating pad on your shoulder, it worked wonders for mine when I had it. It was about the only thing that really helped me! Good luck!

Riding after Surgery....????
Iluvharleys replied to katsunflw's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My doctor told me I could ride my Harley after 2 wks, but I was still sore so I waited 4 wks. I was fine at 4 wks to ride and not hurt at all. -
less than 24 hours til surgery
Iluvharleys replied to lost_secret's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Good luck! Let us know how things went when you can! -
I couldn't agree with you more Michelle, it never pays to be too tight. I have tightened up after 3-4 weeks after my fills too. Be safe, go get a small amount taken out.

Good Luck and let us know how you did when you get a chance! :clap2: :clap2:

Meds - Is There Anyone Out There???
Iluvharleys replied to mylapspirit's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I pretty much just take mine unless they are huge, then I cut them with a pill cutter and take them in pieces. -

Can't hold down solids, what do I do?
Iluvharleys replied to juliegeraci's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Once you PB you need to go on liquids for at least 24 hours. If you haven't done that, maybe it will take care of the problem. Good Luck!
