How do you twist or erode a band? If you have to get it removed, can you get a new one? I don't have a problem, but want to avoid it. I have had band for 1 yr and would be lost without it.
-
If you drink too much, and you need to throw up, what happens? Does it move through the band and come up or just stew in the stomach? Has anyone had this experience? What about stomach flu too?

1 year ago today my band was removed due to erosion

why did you have to have your band removed, and can you get another one? -
I can not stop the sugar, what is the deal? I can only eat a few ounces of protein (chicken, meat, fish) and then a few bites of some sides, then done. BUT, there is always room for dessert. Ice cream, cookies, cake, it goes down just fine. ??? It is like the healthy stuff is hard to eat and the sugar is easy. UGH- I have lost 22 in 4 months, but it would be 32 if I could get over the sugar problem...any advice?

My friend said she read your "under 200"post and you sounded like me. I started at 188 and I am at 180 now. I had surgery 8/15/08 and I have had one 3 cc fill. I don't feel any restriction. Kind of scay after paying as much $$,$$$ as I did. Where are you located? I am in Plano (Dallas) TX.

Breastfeeding with Pre and Post-op diets! Help!

My baby is 3 1/2 months. I just got banded 2 weeks ago. You will need to pump 24 hours after surgery and dump. You need to get the anethsia out of your system. My baby is 15 pounds and still hard to carry. I had help for 3 days after surgery. Just try to limit the lifting and the way you lift. Good luck. My baby is solely nursing and they just bumped my calorie intake by 500 so I would not be so weak. -
I am looking for someone with a similar situation. I have a 31.9 BMI, weigh 188, and was banded on 8-15-08. I self-paid for surgery I need to talk some issues out with someone. I am only telling my family and hubby about my band. Is there anyone out that who can relate.
