My doc sais since im newly banded ( 03-12-08 ) im going to continue losing weight .. And the only thing they are doing different with me is i get ultrasounds about every month and they do blood work almost every month .... I hope this helps a little... Good luck

Hi everyone .. Im currently 5 months preggo and loving it .. I find out the sex of the baby nov 24.. We are very excited ,, here is my issue and would like to know if any one else is having the sames issue .. Every week i keep losing 1 or 2 lb .. And at my last doctor visit they told me they wanted me to at least maintain the weight i was at but im still losing the weight and im so not tring to .. I dont stuff myself but i do eat every few hours not a lot because my lap band doc said it wasnt necesary to unfill because i can eat more than usual but i do eat . Im worried that tha baby isnt getting enough food but then again i do have " excess baggage " any coments ? Anyone going threw the same thing ?

I Do Mis Pigging Out Once In A While But Then I Now Fit In A Size 24.. Havent Worn That Size In 2 Yrs .. So I Get Realy Excited An Im Looking Forward To Droping Another Pant Size By July... Be Patient .. My Doc Sais Its A Humble Surgery .. It Takes Some Time But It Does Happen .. And The End Result Is Sssooooo Worth It.. I Have Lost About 40lb So Far And My Self Esteam Is Threw The Roof .. You Will Be Fine .. You Are Normal Hope My Comment Helped A Little .... Let Me Know How You Do .... Tanke Care

Hello .. I Would Suggest Walking At Least A Few Times Around The Block .. Ever Day .. It Works For Me .. Hopefully It Works For You .. Good Luck And Dont Give Up ..

Hi Congrats On Your Future Surgery .. Its Ssoo Exciting Isnt It?!?!?!? Well Im In Sales But Not On The Road All The Time So Its A Little Easier For Me But We Still Have A Lot Of Vendors That Either Bring Us Food Or We Go Out To Eat.. Here Is A Tip .. When You Eat Out Ask For A To Go Box And Just Leave A Small Serving On Your Plate.. Look For Things You Can Eat ( Salmon And Steamed Veggies From Chillies) Thats What I Do At Least .. I Dont Feal Left Out And I Eat The Amount I Should Works For Me Hopefully It Works For You

Dont Feal Bad ..!!!!! You Are On The Way To Fealing Something So Great >>>>>>> No Hunger And No More Of That Need For Junk food !!! Realy!!! I Have Had My Band For 1 Month 5 Days And Its The Best Fealing Ever.... Dont Get On The scale Every Day !! Weight Can Very A Lot >> I Weigh More When I Ware Jeans Than When I Ware Dress Pants ..

The 2 Weeks I Was Supose To Be On The liquid diet Befor Surgery I Could Not Do It And Made Myself Feal Bad (worst) By Eating Junk But Now Its The Best Thing Ever ... Idont Have Those Horable Cravings Any More And Im Sure The Same Thing Will Happen To You!!! >>>>>>>>> Dont Give Up <<<<<<<<<<<>>> You Are On The Way >>>>
