Oh honey I am so sorry to hear that. I remember when we started this journey. I wish you much success in this struggle!

Hi Guys! about 4 weeks ago I went in for a fill. I didn't feel like it gave me the restriction that I wanted so I went back alst week for a fill. I got .5 cc i was able to drink before I left. I was even able to eat and drink very small amounts the following two days. I increased my exercise and my protein. However, around 3-4 days after the fill I couldn't keep anything down and my breathing was painful! I waited out the weekend and on Monday I went to the DR. ASAP!!!!!!!! I had loat 14lbs in 6 days:) but I was definitely too tight:( So I got that last .5cc taken out and have felt better ever since. My biggest fear is gaining that weight back. I am in wonderland and about 20-25lbs away from goal! What should I do? This is the first time since I've been banded that I feared gaining any weight back...

Thanks! I'm always up a few pounds around that time of the month...no worries, it'll be ok.

Hey SAMUARAI! I've lost 70lbs since surgery. The Dr. says that's great bu I am soooo hard on myself. I went to get a fill 3 weeks ago (1/4 cc) and have lost 3lbs. I was lucky enough to get squeezed in today and asked for another fill because I wasn't satidfied. Wish granted and they gave be another 1/2 cc. Yay! I was thinking another 45-50 lbs to goal but the nurse pract. said about 30 more lbs. Cann you believe that? We'll see. At least it gives me a short term goal.
