My name is sharon and I am 3 1/2 months post banding and have a total of 30 lbs (13 pre surgery and 17 post sugery. I am very discourage right now because I have been stuck at this weight for over 2 weeks. I had a fill in late july early August. Does anyone else out their have bowel issues? I have to take MOM to have a bowel movement. I do't like having to be dependent on something to be able to go then I have the runs. I was taking 2 Fiber Choice a day and Colace, but still the only thing that works is MOM and then the the runs occurs. The nurse at the doctors office says this is normal. I just hope this will not be an ongoing problem. I go back to the doctor Monday Sept 29th for my second fill and hopefully back on track to continuing weight loss. I exercise four times a week.

Sharon D replied to Guene's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Have you tried to execise 15 minutes or so? I made myself do this and the more I did the better I felt. Don't worry about getting everything in until you get further along, I had alot of trouble in the begining getting the 8 oz. of fluid in. Now it is much better. Everybody recovers at different rates after surgery. Hang in there. It will get better. Sharon D. -
My name is Sharon, I was banded June 12, 2007. I am 15 weeks post surgery now. I have lost a total of 28 lbs. Thirteen pounds was pre surgery. I am so discouraged right now because i can't seem to get my system to funtion to have a bowel movement everyday without taking something to go. I don't like being dependent on something to have regular bowel movements. I increased fluid intake am taking 2 Fiberchoice tablets a day and drinking benefiber . All I have is a bunch of gas and no results unless I take MOM. This is the pits.I was hoping to have lost more weight before now, but I am stuck. I read others stories and they have lost more that me by this point. Very discouraged. I have been exercising twice a day, doing a of 7miles a day and I still don't see much change except up and down fluctuation 2-3 lbs. Help discouraged in Mobile Alabama.
