How do you get the tickerfactory.com at the bottom of your posts?

When do you have to go back for an adjustment?

I am from Richlands. Congratulations on being banded. Are you feeling OK? Where did you have the procedure done? Life with the band is good. I did really great regarding appetite for a while, but right before this fill, I could tell my appetite was really coming back. The fill kind of sucked initially. I don't think that is too be expected? Louisville is like a 5 hour drive from my house and I went by myself for the fill. I was fine for like an hour afterwards, then I got this major intense pain in my left shoulder. (I know that sounds bizarre) So I chewed up an Aleve, scared that it would not pass through the band. This made me very sick at my stomach obviously because it was empty. Sort of a stupid move on my part, but I was desperate. Anyway, the pain continued for at least another hour and a half. Finally, I felt so sick that I had to pull over and toss my Cookies. It was like immediate relief for my stomach, shoulder, everything. I was instantly fine. However, last night I had to throw up again after just drinking some Crystal Light. I don't know if the band is too tight or if I am just swollen from the adjustment?

Hello! I am from southwestern Virginia. I had my LapBand procedure on March 28, 2007. I went to Louisville, KY to see Dr. Vincent Lusco for my procedure. Wednesdays are my weigh day. I have lost 30.4 pounds as of today. I went Monday, May 16, 2007 for my first fill. He filled 1.8 cc. I am really happy to be on here and hope to gain a lot of support. Also, how do you get the little tickers at the bottom with your weights and BMIs? I am new to these forums. Thanks!
