    BRIDGETTE, thanks for the info. I sorta have a bad feeling it may be something like slippage. I will have more results after the 29th, very disappointed at this point. Totally unfilled right now. :smile: Thanks again

    Does this ever get better?

    gayleepoo Hi going through same kind of issues, not sure what's going on.Unitl I totally got unfilled I couldn't even eat a salad like I used to and at night when I get up to go to the restromm I would grab a drink of water and water wasn't even going down. I see my DR again next week. A bit concerned I could not eat chicken salad homemade with a bit of mayo. Something seems odd just don't know what . I'm thinking to ask him to just fill me like 1.5 or something. But he also made remark about my body rejecting the band (weird) I have ask about this on the band waiting to hear the replys.Let me know what happens with you. GOOD LUCK DEAR ! I think there is hope for us Sandra

    Am I too tight? Please help...

    Hi Brianne79 , I'm totally unfilled right now because of restriction problems. Have had 1 fill after surgery and had to go for two unfills to no fill.Now I'm able to eat whatever.NOT GOOD.My DR seems to think my body is rejecting the BAND hope this is not so, if anyone has heard of this please let me know.He seemed a bit aggrevated in me because I have no weight lost .I went for the barium swallow last week which came out ok,and couldn't get in to see him until the 29th,I was thinking of asking to try 1.5 fill I don't want to have removed ,just very discouraged right now.Let me know how you are ok. THis bandster is so confused in what to do.Has anyone heard of the powder protein mixed causing a build up of blockage maybe? CONFUSED :wink2:

    hi i could use some support

    Wow I'm not alone. I currently have lost only 20LBS since my surgery May 25,2007. I'm very discouraged also. Since Octocber I have not been able to the way we should be able to. And very frustrated with foods also.I have ahd a total unfill now for 2 weeks and really afraid of gaining weight back. I went to have to have the Barium swallow after the unfill and everything seems clear. My doctor seems has if my body is rejecting the band I have an appointment next week the 29th, But I with just 2.0 fill I wasn't able to eat only at night and certain things that are not good for you, except the protein drinks.It's as though something I was drinking or eating was causing a blockage. My DR said no power drinks but I was doing protein shakes in the morning because your able to add fruit or whatever. I have not told him yet I was. And he states that can cause a blockage so I think I may be in trouble. Will let you know.I hope you are better WE CAN"T GIVE UP ! Sandra

    Cannot Eat During The Day Have Had 2-unfills

    Thanks for some good info. I do have my protein shakes every morning I know that is pretty much all I can have occasionally I can do boiled eggs to get my protein just to get something different. I pretty much have to have with my coffee t get down but it works out pretty good. Yep hardly ever get a lunch ! Thanks for the help. Sandra
  11. A bit concerned , I can eat fine sometimes at night. Its very frustrating I could eat my salads and chicken salad some days for lunch and some days nothing not sure what's going on, has anyone had same symptoms? My doctor's office says stress and menstrual cycle can cause this !!!! Cheezzz it's very frustrating .:help:Going for another unfill Jan 8th - - Oh yeah,cookies and junk like that go down just fine and when I can't eat the good foods I like Chicken breast & my salad I bring it up and then grab a cookie and want to satisfy myself. Defeating the whole purpose of having the band , you know :think

    macacoza, well bettca wish you were in Texas sometimes again huh,do you still have somewhat of a southern accent? I just had cousins that had to move from Colorado here because of his job works for the energy department , they had a rode awakening .Or rsther is daugther did. They had never seen so many mexicans lol.Said he was going to have to take up spanish. They moved to the Nasa area and went to the Almeda Mall area UG for there first mall experience don't know why my mother didn't have them call me.I could have sent thme to a much better side of town,but oh well.His daughter was scared to death.I was laughing at your eamail about your husband bless his heart .. my BF is just about to retire from law enforcement 30 years in Houston and he promise me we would start taking some road trips so I'm holding him to it. We have been pricing some good used 2 axle trailers that will hold at least 4 bikes. Seems senseless to buy new so many people go buy new and keep a couple of years and then sell them. I can't wait until I can wear a siz 6 chaps Girly. I went ahead and purchased my first pair from Fox Creel up in Virginia they are a great place to buy leather from they custom make chaps. But i was same way about has wide has tall I hated giving my measurements - YUK ! I'm hoping when I drop some pounds I can send back and let them size them babies down for me. I bet ya'll love living there . I want to be able to visit Colorado sometime and Spartanburg,SC where I was born SOME DAY. Its great reading everyone's stories. Keep posting. And like you said it's just getting use to eating and living with the band sounds like yo have done great. I hope I can do good. The one thing I hate is people asking me on a weekly bases how much weight have you lost !!! I want to punch there lights out lol . Be Safe take care ,Sandra:rain:
