Yes, I feel ya..I was banded 3 years ago and lost 100 pounds...now I find every excuse to skip the gym and I just sat here and had a bowl of ice cream. I feel like a failure and disgusted with myself. I can't even dry my pants cause they won't fit it I do and I won't buy new clothes. Going to see if dr can offer any advice.

Attached? I wonder if he means eroded.

Two things that affect hair loss. 1 diet, 2 stressors. Your diet has and will change with not eating as much as you did so if your not getting enough protein..the hair will pay the price. Also stress, telegen effluviene (sp) Hair loss from stress. Rather it is emotional stress or physical stress (surgery). I suck at handling either.....and yes hair is thinner, finer and straight now. Use to be wavy. Been 3 years now, lost 100 pounds...Quit smoking, gained 20 and working on them. So stress and crappy eating. Yep I know.

What kind of dingbat gets a fill the day before they are going to the state fair......ME. that's good for automatic 10pound weight loss right???? No funnel cake, corn dog, nada. Took my bag of liquids with me. Mmmm. Yogurt n applesauce. :'-(

Reading at work wishing I could take a nap at lunch time.

Not really. Only lost 2 pounds.

Headed to the scales...been a week since fill....be back shortly

Yes. I am to the point I regret having lapbad. I lost almost 100 pounds the first year and 4 months. Now I have gained 14 (new office job) finally went in for my first fill. But my regret is when I see myself naked. Rolls of skin that gross me out. I sometimes wish I had stayed fat. I had curves and boobs. Now I have rolls and flaps.

Could be you in ketoacidosis?

Never had one until now....which even Dr is baffled how I lost so much with no fill. I say don't complain and am grateful. Just right now I am starving. Today I can eat but am at work all day and don't want any issues while I'm here. So mushies today and food tonight. I better lost 10 pounds. Lol. J/k

Nope. Been losing steadily until I got office job and sit on butt most of day.

Down almost 100 pounds with no fill (Dr had to empty it cause they thought it was causing problems) I think next time I am taking the day after off....exhausted.

My band has been empty since shortly after surgery.....well new job, less exercise, more stress and I have gained 14 pounds. Went in for my first fill. Doing clear liquids and I am so hungry I could eat a cow.....and tired!!!! So tired. A little nauseated (Prob from hunger) Does anyone else feel like this after a fill? Haven't had one so I don't know what's normal.

I have had one episode of getting stuck....called the Dr in a panic thought I was having a heart attack! It HURT. Left over steak is a no no for me.

It's an all day event to get to the office and right now getting time off work isn't possible. Asked about a ct. He can't order where I live and my pcp won't order because that makes him responsible for results! Seriously. That was the answer given to me.
