Hello all.I have had the band since October 2004. I have lost about 40 pounds. I wish i could have lost more but its stil in progress. I am now 5 months pregnant. i have not gained anything as of yet. I am actually losing weight. Currently i weigh 243 i started at 283. I am happy but i thought i would have lost more by now. I guess i should get in the gym alittle more. I must admit going to the gym is not something i do all the time. But i do eat less. I no longer eat thick break or alot of hamburger meat. I also do not eat that many sweets. I drink alot of OVALUTINE in the morning. It gives me almost all of the vitamins and minerals that i need for the day. I also take my prenatal vitamins. If anyone has ?'s about being pregnant and having the lap band feel free to email me. I will sumit pictures as soon as i can. God Bless.:clap2:

The Band Is Working Fine. My Doctors Name Is Charles Morton At Southern Hills Medical Center In Nashville Tn And He Is Aware Of Everything That Is Going On. I have taken responsibility for myself I Got The Band To Loose Weight And It is Working. If my post are not to your agreement please do not reply with negativity.

I DID SPEAK TO MY DOCTOR ABOUT DRINKING BETWEEN MEALS AND THEY STATED THAT IF YOU FEEL LIKE YOUR food IS STUCK EITHER YOUR GOING TO HAVE TO THROW UP OR DRINK SOMETHING SO IT CAN TRY AND GO DOWN TO RELIVE THE PRESSURE. I GOT CHOKED ON THE chicken WITH MY FIRST BITE. IT WAS NOT RESTRICTION BECAUSE I HAD NOT ATE ANYTHING THAT DAY SO I HAD NOTHING IM MY POUCH. IT WAS PROBLY BECAUSE I DID NOT CHEW IT AS SMALL AS I SHOULD HAVE SO IT GOT STUCK. ALSO MY DOCTOR IS AWARE OF HIM GIVING ME TWO FILLS IN A MONTH. THEY FELT THAT I WAS READY FOR IT. I DON'T BELIEVE THAT THEY WOULD DO ANYTHING TO ME IF IT WAS GOING TO HARM ME BECAUSE THERE WOULD BE MAJOR CONSEQUENCES. SO FAR I FEEL GREAT. I ALSO STOP EATING WHEN I AM SUPPOSE TO, I DO NOT FIGHT MY RESTRICTION. THAT IS A NO NO. I NO BETTER THAN THAT. I JUST NEED TO CHEW MY FOOD BETTER WHEN I AM EATING. I APPRECIATE YOU FEEDBACK. TALK TO YOU LATER :straight :squareeye :glasses

I Think Everyone Is Different With The Fill Situation. My Doctor Didn't Mind Giving Me Two Fills Within A Month. I Guess He Done This Because I Healed Quickly And I Asked For The Fill. I Guess If You Go To The Doctors Office And Ask For The Fill All They Can Do Is Say No Or Yes. I Guess As Long As You Are Feeling Well And You Are Progressing Great Than They Don't Mind. I Did Stay On Liquids The First Day After My Fill. But The Next Day I Went Back To Regular Food. I Just Could Not Eat As Much. I Have Noticed A Difference With My Fills Because I Sometimes Get Choked When I Try And Eat Chicken Or Some Other Foods That May Be Thick. I Do Find Myself Drinking With My Meals Instead Of 30 Minutes Afterwards Because I Do Get Choked Alot Even If I Chew. The Good Thing Is That I Am Still Losing Weight While I Drink With My Meals Even Though This Is A No No! I Believe Everyone Is Different In What They Do. I Have Change My Choices On What I Eat. I No Longer Eat Sweets Or Alot Bread. This Has Helped Alot. If You Have Any More Questions Feel Free To Ask!
