I had the back in 2009. Lost over 100 pounds but have gained a LOT back. I need the support to get back on schedule. Any help would be GREAT!! I am in MI if there is anyone to help in this area that would be Awesome. I had foot surgery in Jan 2012 and that started the "upward" climb. Now with added stress due to my son's deployment to Afghanistan that has just added to the binge eating. PLEASE HELP get this mom back on TRACK!!

Hi Steve, I went in today and had a fill. My band is a 10 cc band. When I went in I was at 7 cc. The Dr was going to give me a 1/2 cc to get it moving but I only wanted a 1/4 cc at this time. I don't want to get stuck and have issues. I had issues before and they had to remove all and I had to start over. I am hoping this little bit helps and gets me moving in the right direction again. I go back in 8 weeks for a check up. They did find that my port has tipped. I am not certain why that would happen.

ok. I have been pushing protein for the last week and trying to get in walks. I am still at a stand still and not losing any weight. Any ideas would be helpful. I go back to the dr on the 18th to see about getting another fill. HELP!!

What is your email? Maybe that would work better if I sent you one first.

That would be great!! I think the added push would help a lot. Make me accountable for what i do. you can reach me via email easier.. sanderson@mwadvocacy.com

I would really like to have a mentor. I need to get back on the right track and it will help if someone can relate to what i am going through. Please let me know if you can help.

Hello, I am looking for a mentor. Do you have any options? Thank you, Stacy

Thanks for asking!! things are going very well. I have had my 2nd fill and am now at 3.5 cc's. I can finally feel a little restriction but it is not that bad. I just have a tight feeling in the mornings and not hungry at all when I wake up. very strange because I was always hungry in the mornings before the 2nd fill. How is everyone else doing? I go for my 3rd fill on the 22nd of Sept.

Ok I have to vent here and I know you will understand. When I had my surgery I only told a few people (Husband, my kids and my 2 sisters). I did not want anyone else to know. Now I find out that one of my sisters has a BIG mouth and told people. Needles to say it is out now and I am getting negative feed back. So far I have heard, "I know someone that had the same surgery and they ended up with a really bad infection and almost died 3 months post op", "Why would you put yourself through that? It won't work!!", and this is the best "I know two people that had it done and they turned GREY." What the heck is that supposed to mean. I am not turning GREY. How do I now talk to the "sister" that cannot keep a secret??? I am so right now. I didn't want the negative feed back but I am getting it. I need encouragement not criticism!! I guess you really do find out who you can trust and who you can not.

I lost 11 pounds before the surgery. I has suregry on 5/20. I go back to the Dr this week for my 2nd post op check. I will see how I have lost at that time. Good Luck!!

I have been eating cottage cheese or egg beaters. They both have a lot of protein in them and they are very felling. Also I eat tuna in spring water. Good luck!!!
