hey guys, I,m not doing so good I've been really down, but I see that you've had 6 fills and your up to 3.25cc I've had 9 fills and I'm only @3.2cc no wonder it's been so hard to loose. I am one of the first 3 lap bands done by this dr. and I think hes been afraid to put much in at a time. May 18th will be 1 year and I've only lost about 40 lbs. but I'm not giveing up!

Don't feel bad I've been band sence May and I've had 7 fills and I'm still not losing. Talk about fed up..... I just keep going back and getting another fill I have a 4cc band and I'm at 2.5. I have no leeks my Dr. is just taking things slow. I'm due to go back after Christmas but I'm a bit afraid to get another fill because things are getting stuck very easy. any answers out there????

Hi everyone, I just need some prayer, I'm just not getting there as fast as I think I should I was banded may 18th 07 I have had 6 fills and I've only lost about 29 lbs. its been almost 6 months. I'm going back to the Dr. on the 20th he said to come back if I thought I needed another fill. I'm not sure if I do I'm still eating more than I think I should, but lots of things are getting stuck. any answers out there? Have a blessed day LOL.

I went today for my 4th fill so far none have helped I have been on a plato for 6 weeks losing nothing..... I'm trying not to get down about it but it's hard. I hope this one makes a diffrence.

hi, I'm in the same boat as you. I have had 3 fills now and I had gained 2 lbs back when I went to the Dr. last week he said we will keep filling till we get it right. He is only filling a little at a time. But I need help fast. All we can do is hang in there. WILL POWER!!!!!!!! I told the Dr. if I had will power I wouldn't have gotten the band. HA! HA! I think it will get better. Good Luck

I got my first fill on june 29th he gave me 1cc it did nothing for me I'm doing the will power thing also. I go back on the 19th for another fill, I hope this one won't hurt like the first one. I also hope it will help me fill full. good luck to all

hello everyone I've been away too long. I've been working so much and I'm not out of school for summer break until the 16th.But I just wanted to stop in and say hi. I had my first fill on Thurs. It hasen't helped much but I go back in two weeks for another. Pray that this one will. I think they hurt the dr. said it will get better as my skin gets thiner. I had mine done with ins. coverage do you know how much the hosp. charged 47,736.00$ WOW! my part was only 452.00$ God is good!

hello everyone, I had my band a week age today, I prayed for it I had tried every diet under the sun, and I believe the Lord knows that. I started speaking lap band in Sept. as if it were going to happen the next day. I never gave up. Don't forget life and death are in the power of the tounge. so if there is something you want and truly believe you have spoken to the Lord about it speek it!
