Can somebody please tell me if they know of anyone who this has happened to, that is the lap band starts eroding in on the stomach

does anybody knows what caues lap band erosion. When they remove the band do they have to remove part of your stomach. Was this surgery even more painful than the initial band placement. How are you doing now?

Emotional hunger vs physical hunger - how do you deal with this??

That's amazing. I knew they didn't want us to drink while eating but I assumed it was cuz the liquid would fill up the pouch first and not that it washed away the food quicker. Now a light bulb has gone off. Thanx so much. -
painkillers after fills - can't swallow pills
lbendola2 replied to loridee11's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I currently take ibuprofen 800 mg when I have pain, which is a huge pill. Otehrwise CVS pharmacy and Walgreens have their own little pills for long acting pain killers. In the beginning I had trouble taking pills but not anymore. Most of them can be broken down anyway. Good luck -
I love diet soda and am still drinking it. I believe they r just afraid that if you drink soda with a meal you will fill up on the soda and then not eat the food that you really need such as protein
