I was banded 11/27/08 and lost since then 25 lbs. but I have been filled twice since then, started aggresively exercising for the past 3 weeks and still have not lost. I can't get under 200 lbs. I eat right excercise and had surgery. what more can I do? Was or is it all for nothing. :tongue2:

I have a problem, I was banded on 11/26/08 and I still have almost the same eating habits. I Don't eat or drink much all during the day, then BAM at night I want to eat more. But since I've been banded I can't eat alot because I get full fast. When I eat earlier It is so uncomfortable for me that it turns me off, like the gas and the chest indigestion feeling. I have probably most too much in too little time. Think I am headed for the malnutrion stage. I definately don't get enough Protein in. Whats a lady to do if eating hurts and I have not even had a first fill yet. :thumbup: LOST 21 lbs in 10 days!!!!

I was also banded last week on 11/26 and am feeling the bloating but I also know it will pass. Its too early in the game to feel like giving up. WE CAN DO THIS!! No pain No gain. I'm sure you've tried other methods like me to loose the weight but this method unlike others puts a mother of a restriction on us and I think thats one of the biggest things to get over in our heads. Try gas x melts and walk walk walk.:thumbup:

I was just banded on 11/26/08 and I am currently on thin liquids for about 10 more days. This is difficult because even though I feel full I AM STILL HUNGRY!. Will I feel this way after my first fill or is this mind over matter I must battle with for now on?:thumbup: can't wait to move onto thicker liquids at least.

Hello all, I am on my 4th day post- op of banding. Hope I can get some questions answered as well as answering some questions. for now all I can say is I am still sore around my insertion site so I make sure I stay hydrated and take my pain medication, other than that all is well. I am not eating that much at all because I get full sooo fast. Is this OK:mellow:
