do you find that drinking - booze - makes the band seem to open wide ?

HI thanks for getting back to me - I was last filled in July and have been fine but most recently along wiht weight loss I have not really been keeping too much down and am really tired- think -I cannot believe I am saying this- I am not eating enough and that's why I am so tired- gonna go and get a drop taken out this week- cannot even keep coffee down for at least 3 hours after I wake in the morning so,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, takre care

Hi I was banded 13 months ago at NYU - love love love it - down 90 pounds - do not want to go any lower but think my band MAY be a bit too tight - can eat most days but throw up (sorry) almost every day once- scared to have fill lowered also - any advice thanks aura114

Yup New Years Party - too much Chinese food- sick as a dog but also did not throw up - stranger casue I throw up almost every day - somehow I eat too fast or just does not go through - who knows gald you are better me too :thumbup:

HI - welll i have know gotten to about 15 pounds of where is want to be - down 65 pounds since Nov 1 - how are you all doing ?:party:

does the noise just come from the base of the throat? like right where you would wear a choler necklace?

Hey - you will be brought into hospital area with any friend or family that is with you - get undressed and sit in private room and hang out for a few - then you walk to OR and hop up on table - staff is so calming - doc comes in and last thing you remember till you wake up - they ask if you are jittery and will give you Xanax in IV if you want - then sleepy time again till you wake in room - an overnite stay in a room with a great view of the city - next morning off you go - really they have it down to a science they have done so very many - it is best thing ever

Hey Justice I live in Fresh Meadows near St Johns was banded by Dr Fielding NYU Nov 1 - so far 55 lbs amd thrilled - best thing I ever did - have about 25 more to go - any questions feel free

:biggrin:oh my goodness I finally understand this whole thing - your residual fat pad explanation is the best explanation I have ever gotten thanks AURA114@AOL.COM

Hey - I have been looking inline and asking questions I am sure you will be just fine -the body can take just so much trauma and then it needs time to heal - be strong and maybe a touch of antideprressents - no kidding - firm believer in them - Lillian aka aura114@aol.com

hey wrote to you before Xmas - Dr Fielding did me too (so to speak ) also went to family in Alabama - Hope Hull- remember ?? Well anyhow - is there such a thing as surgery to correct fat calves and ankles? thanks aura114@aol.com

OK here goes - so a few problems - number one is when I got my last fill I was sure that was "the one" - now two weeks later I feel as though I may not be tight enough once again - anyone else feel fine for a while then feel like you need to tighten again? Second - bathroom blues- don't seem to go - soory - yucky question- tried exlas and no success - any tricks for me banded November 1 2007 NYU Dr Fielding - love them all there- lost @ 32-33 lbs so far thanks aka Lillian

:help:Hi Julie - listen here girl I also went to Fielding , I am also going to Alabama to visit my son in laws family , I live here in NY and I have fat legs!!!!! Ankle up to knee - can daddy do surgery on that area once I lose the weight - always been heavier than the rest of my body - aura114@aol.com
