  1. Happy 72nd Birthday ciaovito!

  2. Hi, I'll try this again. Alex, what are the rules? Where can I get them? I was banded in March of 07. I've lost 45lbs and have come to a 5 month dead stop. I have type II diabetes, and the weight loss has not really affected the diabetes. (obviously, I haven't lost enough). I've had 3 fills, and sometimes I feel a restriction and then sometimes I can eat as much as anyone. Has anyone out there had this kind of experience, and can offer some advice?

  3. I ask again, what are the rules? Where can I read them? Is this what you say to all new people at this site?

  4. what are the rules?

    Diabetic Bandsters?

    Im pretty new to this site, and am so glad to find this thread. I'm registered as ciaovito(e-mail name), but call me "JO". I'm 67, have high bp, and type 2 diabetes. I was banded in March of 07 and have lost only 45 lbs, and seem to be stuck there. My sugars have hardly changed, and even my endo-dr is surprised by that. BP has stayed the same, so maybe I have to get off this 6 month plateau for things to get better. (Are there enough years left?) Does any of this sound familiar to anyone out there?:ohmy:
  6. Hi, I just wanted to say that Dr. Halm is my Dr. also, and I like him alot. I was banded in March of 07, have lost 45 lbs, and am not happy about that. Things seem to be at a stand still. I will see him again next week and hope he can find a reason for this--like has the band slipped or anything. Good luck to you, and I like this site too.

    starting to gain

    I'm new here, and i think I need help. Had the surgery in 3/07; have lost 45 lbs and having probs. I can eat a lot, very little restriction, and have bad hartburn(but have allways had bad reflux). Also something else is going on-have had 3 episodes of severe tremors, lasting about 1/2 hour, and then quits. It is not my diabetes and have no fever. Could the band have come off? How can I find out? Call me Jo
