I lost 100 lbs. in a yr. Down to 119 lbs.Very proud.Then they had to drain the saline out,because I couldn't keep anything down.Had to wait to start fills over.In the meantime I gained back 20 lbs.So now I have gotten back to 6 1/2 cc.s Feel better starting to lose again.I'm out 3yrs. now.Happy with results.

Myst51 posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Is it alright to post the web site for a cook book? I purchased mine from the author(whom is a Bariatric dietitian).I had surgery in Oct. 2008.I have lost 104 lbs.I'm maintaining the weight.I t was my goal to be at 124lbs. But,I actually am at 119lbs.I'm very happy with the results. GOD Bless everyone! -
I have had Fibro for at least 15 yrs. Tried many meds.I had my lap band done 11/08. Have lost 83 lbs. need only to lose 17 more.I am on Lyrica (3X a day) & a couple of other med.s. The weight loss has helped.Still gets really bad with damp,chilly, or cold weather.I do walk (on good days) 2 mi. a day.GOD Bless!

Being from Speedway you don't have to go very far for your appointments. I live in northern In.Quite a trip for us.I like how nice they treat people at St. Vincent in Carmel.I haven't any words of wisdom.I think listening to all that the Dr.'s advise to do is the best advice I can give. GOD Bless!!

:smile:I have had Fibro for almost 10 yrs.There are varying degrees of it.I do know losing weight,exercising & GOD have helped me through alot.Plus my Dr. put me on Lyrica(3 a day)which has also helped.I had my lap band done Oct.2008,so far I have lost 62 lbs. with 28 to go.It's a real struggle trying to lose the rest.I googled Fibromyalgia,I like immmunesystem.com the best.GOD bless

:confused:I have lost 62 lbs. since my lap band surgery on Oct.09.Have once again gotten stuck on losing.I still want to lose around 25-27 lbs.Any suggestions from anyone who needed a new jump start? I have 5cc's & would not dare have anymore,because sometimes now it feels like things are kind of stinking my throat.GOD has been so good to me.To allow me the chance to have the surgery.

:mad2: Hi You have done really awesome with your weight loss.I have to go to Carmel Thur. At St. Vincent for a check up. I've been wondering how long it will take to lose the rest of my weight.It seems like it has slowed way down.I have lost 44 lbs. & still have 45 lbs to go.I doubt I will get to 135 anytime soon.It is hard,I just have to have Faith & BELIEVE!!!In myself.Again Congratulations.:wink:

Hello, I had my band surgery on Oct 29,2008.I'm very happy to say as of today I have lost 40 lbs. I still have 60 lbs. to lose.I've had 2 fills.
-
I'm not sure why you don't feel full after a fill.I know when I get a fill the Dr. says stay on liquids for 48 hrs. after wards.I just found this web site today.It has all kinds of great advice on it.GOD Bless,keep up the great loss.
