I'm 36 banded 3/20/06. Down about 30 pounds. Married for 14 years I have a 12 year old daughter and a Westie...

Vera, you look great have a nice Birthday !!!

Heya all..been mad busy so haven't been online much. Has a ? I hope all of you can shed some light and some support. Going for my second fill this Friday. I was banded in March. I felt no restriction no nothing with this fill. I've read that this is normal. When does restriction usually kick in?? I'm a lil depressed I've lost 27lbs before the first fill and maybe like 4 pounds since this first fill. By all means I'm happy about this loss. I'm sticking to the diet just was curious to when I will actually feel full. I never get this feeling. Is this normal ?? hehe :help: :help: :help:

Heya and congrats on your band. I had my lap band on 3/20/06. Also on my Birthday. I had so many mixed feelings about have it done on my Birthday. But as I look back on it now, it is the best gift I could ever give myself. And it really is cause I feel great!

Thanks for joining ... It's nice of you to take your time to help us

Piece of cake... Wow I was shocked how easy it was. And to think I was nervous(lol). Thanks !! for the support.

Have a great Birthday !!

Heya Everyone,I hope I'm explaining this correctly. Curious to know if this sounds normal. I'm 1 month post op and If I press the area around my port I feel muscle. I thought I would be able to feel the port. By no means am I complaing about that ( hehe). I've read so much and some have said sometimes you can see it stick out. My mind races alot and I was thinking maybe it became unattached ? thanks ..

thanks for your response ... I feel ALOT better now :Banane56:

Happy Easter Everyone !!!!!!!!!!!

congrats and welcome to bandland !!

I walked alot and used a heating pad,but the walking helped me the most

I got alot of headaches cause I wasn't eating as much. But after a few days they passed. I think I also had them cause I was stressing somewhat about the surgery. But everything worked out
