thats cool. congrats. well i got trush from the heavy antibotics. and my left is numb. i lost 55lbs in 5mo. i got 2 fills so far. i may need another 1 by sept, but for i am doing surprisly well. i can go days without wanting to eat anything. well hope u had a great vacation:clap2: . i have 50 or so more lbs to lose. then i am doneI don't regret having my band placed at all. I've been banded for five months and have lost 42 pounds. I had a little problem with reflux which responded well and is completely gone after using Nexium.I'm sure I would have lost more weight during this time but I've been waiting to have a second fill until after my reflux was completely healed and *grin* after my end of summer vacation - I wanted to be able to eat too much! LOL My vacation just ended and guess what? I DID eat everything I wanted (didn't actually overeat because I really didn't want to - a first for me) AND I didn't gain an ounce!!!!!!! That's amazing to me. I went on vacation and didn't gain any weight at all. When was the last time THAT happened? Try never for me. lol
Time to schedule my second fill and lose another 42 pounds!

hey i know the feeling. ever since i got the band i am going to need rogain soon. i brush my hair and out it comes. i should save it and have it put right back on my headNixon is a topical treatment. You can get a kit at the beauty supply store for about $24. Purchase the one you need for your h air type, natural, chemically treated, colored etc. -
i was told to wait 6mo. to a yr. before to have a baby. i just recently had a misscarrge. all my doctors who did my band said its would be healthier to wait the yr. so i just might have to that. i have had problems in the baby department. do i really need to wait that long. confused. anybody have any suggestions. help

this is for anyone who knows or has the answer. my brothers friend got his band in november of last year. and when he got his first fill he got a major infection and they had to remove the band. he said that he is doing good without it. what is the odds of that happening to me. can getting a fill cause a sever infection like that. anyone please respond. i am getting very scared about getting my first fill. i am due on the 14th of april. thanxs:help:

thank you very much. i do not know why they would say something like that. this is a great site. so many wonderful caring people. i want to thank everyone:)
-
i do not know where they got that from. but that did freak me out. thank you for clearing that up for me. yeah i was very very scared about thatA net? Where did they get that from? I certainly have never heard of anyone's stomach exploding from having a band. Don't let them scare you. I think they're all just worried about how much better you are going to look then them when you reach your goal. Ignore them and go for it. -
oh i will. we will do great. my friends keep scaring me. they are telling me if i do not get some kind of net around my stomach it will explode and kill me please tell me this is not true.
-
i am sorry your mom is not feeling well. i will be praying for you both
-
i hope you feel better soon. i am getting my band march 1 at central suffolk hosp. in riverhead. does this happen to everyone
-
to be honest i have not read that yet. i get enough shit at home. and no not from my parents. they are so happy i am going to do this
