I had my band put in almost one month ago. I started out at 250lbs. One week post op I was at 222.8. I got down to 215 at my home and starting last weekend, I more almost the same before I decided to have surgery. I gained almost 11 pounds in one week. I lost control and while I feel full, I did not expect to get to eat more than one ounce as I was told. I didn't vomit but at times felt uncomfortable. Now...I feel horrible about what I have ate after being on liquids for so long...and I am worried I made my band slip and ruined a $12K surgery that my family paid for because they wanted me to be healthy and happy the rest of my life. Did this thing work? Did I mess up my surgery? Is anyone out there in the same place as me? Regretful.:cry

Thanks very much....I will see if that is at the local SuperSupplements Store.

Thanks very much Gina. I looked at the site but don't see anything called 'Protein bullets'. Is there a specifc brand name it is under? Trisha

Hi Maryrose, I am feeling today the way when you wrote. In the last week I have lost total control of my eating and in a weeks time I have gained 11 of the 35lbs I have lost since my surgery. I am questioning whether I caused my band to slip and be worthless and my family paid a lot of money for me to do this...I am experiencing some terrible guilt right now. Tomorrow I am getting back on the wagon and going to drink liquids for a few days to see if I can get control again. Any tips for me?

Thank you, I appreciate the response. I am just fearful since I gained so much in a weeks time. I am going back on the wagon tommorrow and drinking liquids to see if I can come down again. My first fill is on 07/27 and I am nervous that I damaged or derailed this surgery.
