I feel like I'm failing my band...
heidib replied to mommytoethan's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I'm sure a lot of people have this problem. That's how we all got over weight right. Don't be so hard on yourself. We're not perfect. You should tell your doc about this or nutritionist about this. Maybe you need another fill????? -
Oh no! I have heard of that. I hope all goes well. I 'm sorry you have to have another surgery,
-
Good idea about straining!!! Is your stage 2 for 2 wks? I just talked to my nutritionist & she told be I should move on to stage 3 by day 14!!!! Here I am thinking I had to do just shakes for THREE weeks! Come to find out they gave me the wrong paper at the hopital lol!!! She nade my day!!!
-
Oh no. keep us posted! Is there anything else you can try if you lose your band?
-
I can really feel my port popping out. Hope it's gonna go down. Anyone else have trouble bending over on that side? It feels like my ports up in my ribs! :crying: Reminds me of when I was pregnant & they'd stick a foot up there lol!

Oh no! I just read of that happening to another person here. :smile2: I will say a prayer for you. hang in there. :crying:

I've noticed I can't sit in one spot for too long like I could before because muy back hurts. I guess it's still part of healing.
