    WLS?

    I started at 225 and am now 183 after 6 months and extensive exercise. For loss over 100 pounds I would not recommend the band. Will have better long term results with the sleeve or bypass.

    Anyone near plainfield IL

    Dr Shayani is wonderful in Bolingbrook
  3. I feel it the first week then return back to feeling unrestricted. I find the band also requires willpower and learning to eat when hungry only.

    Week 7 of liquids -- gimme food already!

    I commend you. 2 weeks of liquids to me was brutal. I think would have disappeared on liquids for 7 weeks lol

    Why liquids so long with band?

    Worried sick

    I had my first stuck experience after being banded 4 months ago. Clearly was my fault not chewing enough and had no business eating a Popeyes chicken finger. Lesson learned. Once brought it up I felt fine.

    I feel like i'm lying to people!

    I am always open and honest regarding my band when asked. The reactions have all been positive and actually 2 friends are now considering it as well.

    5 fills and Starving

    I am shocked the pork chops didn't get stuck. Definitely go see your doc. That is too much for sure.

    Went To The Gym Only ONE Day

    Asics are sooooo comfy
  10. My blood pressure was high from nerves before surgery. Woke up with minimal discomfort and only got better from there. Good luck

    2 yrs in, no weight loss!

    Exercise is necessary for long term success. Try 30 minutes of cardio 5 days axweek.

    Anyone from Indiana

    Dr Shayani in Illinois is well worth it the drive! Banded in Dec and down 37 lbs. No problems at all with less than 10 lbs to goal. He is very knowledgeable and takes time with all his patients.
  13. Just curious if under 35 why would you not use a nonsurgical method?

    New with questions!

    My doc's administrator was very good with appeals and mine was approved the first time. Important they understand your insurance guidelines. What state?

    Too tight?

    Sounds like too much. Should never get stuck.
