    Having It Out!! Hooray!!!!!!!!

    I wish more people had this information. I have been getting sick since day 1. Lost 100 lbs. throwing up in my sleep. took fluid out, got pregnant, throw up my whole pregnancy with no fluid in the band. and not because i was pregnant. I've had every type of test done and nothing shows abnormal, except slower emptying. which is what the band is suppose to do. I want it out so bad! I want to have another baby, but not with the band in. I wish i just would have excerised and ate right, and never had the surgery.

    Having A Hard Time And Need Advice

    I'm having a similar problem. I was banded in 08. Lost 100 strictly from vomiting all the time. I had fluid taken out, got pregnant and gained weight. Now with no fluid I still constantly vomit all the time. I hate it. We will be at dinner and my husband will joke did you have to meet uncle earl honey? i hate that people know i have this happen. Endoscopy and swallows just show slow movement. I'm ready to be unbanded.
  3. I was banded in june of 08. i lost 100 lbs, but for the past year i have been constantly getting sick. all of the fluid was removed from my band and i was still vomiting, and waking up vomiting. my insurance will not pay for removal. they say there is not enough proof of a problem. does anyone have any suggestions? or the cost of self pay. you can only down carafate for so long.

    almost four months out

    i'm kinda frustrated this month. i lost 13 lbs last month. i went the dr he believed i lost too much weight so he gave me the smallest fill. so now this month no weight has came off. i'm a little frustrated.

    two months out and not losing!

    i hear you on that. i have people at work and everywhere i go telling me i look so much smaller. i feel it on in my clothes. i can get into alot of things i haven't been able to in a while. i think i just want to see the scale go below 200 and then i will be able to take it as slow as it needs to be. any meal idea anyone?

    two months out and not losing!

    i've been pretty good. i work out every other day. i eat a ton of protein. i guess i just need to strap down some more. maybe another fill and i will see some results.

    Crystal Lite on the go...

    the lemonade is my absolute favorite. i use about half of one in 32 oz of water. lucky for me, we have a huge supply at work. i drink probably three things of water a day at work. trying to get more in!
  13. i am 14 days post surgery lost 15lbs pounds already. i only had the clear liquid diet for fours days. then i moved to full liquid. when you get there you will feel so much better. make sure you get protein. it helps so much. but for warning, go purchase benefiber now! i am so bloated and backed up it feels horrible. i was reading post today from veterans saying benefiber was the best. i'm headed to the store today. good luck to everyone. Seattle Sweetie great job on the weight loss. you are only 1 week a ahead of me, how did you lose so much?
  14. Hope everyone is having a great weekend. I am getting banded on monday and i am so nervous. I know i am starting a new chapter of getting healthy. But i am so afarid i'm going to do something wrong. I had a dream the other night, that i woke up monday morning and took a drink. so they canceled my surgery. I know i am crazy. Just wondered if anyone had any suggestions for last minute nerves. Also any suggestions on what is best to help get your energy back after surgery. How soon can i work out? what is the best protein shakes? affordable.
