Hi everyone, I had my surgery july 16th and lost alot of weight right away. I started at 293 and and by my 1 week checkup i was 276. Throughout the first month I went up and down between 283 and 276. At my first tightening I still weighed 276. I was bummed but my surgeon was very happy. The first 3 days after my tightening i lost 10 lbs bringing me down to 266. I was thrilled. But the day i started mushies the numbers started climbing and a week after my tightening i am back at 275. Is this normal? Does anyone also feel like as long as they eat they dont lose weight? i feel like no matter what i eat, whether healthy or not i dont lose weight. Has anyone found a way to get in control of when they lose the weight? Is going on a permanent liquid diet going to help? How about incorporating exercise? Please help! I have a trip to go see my boyfriend whos in the army and would love to do everything i can to lose weight until then.

I feel much better now went back to work today. but have a white coating on my tongue thats really annoying. Is that gna go away? It makes my whole mouth feel weird. But dont have the symptoms of thrush. No bumps anywhere in my mouth

I was banded 3 and half days ago and i have this terrible pain right under my chest. I thought it was gas and took gas x but it did not work. Today i had a bowl of soup and immediately felt the pressure increase. I am nervous that my band is too tight. What could this be? I feel very nauseous, almost like i have to throw up.
