Same! have the small AP band... -
Dr Justin Bessell at Wakefield Street Hospital. They have the whole lot there and are starting up some seminars and possibly a support group!
-
I am stuck at 8kg.. grrrr!!!
-
What surgeon are you seeing?

Still waiting for the 'sweet spot'. have 4mL in a AP small band, and going in for another fill in a week and a half (BTW 1mL = 1cc) weight is not budging... I will have to try and be patient!
-
Another fill, another mill!! so that makes 4mL in total now, another fill in 2 weeks. I can feel the difference in just 1mL! hopefully things will start moving again, as it has been at a standstill for 2 weeks! (but we did have Easter and a holiday!)

i was going to the toilet every hour on my second night in hospital!! was a bad night!!
-
Did the barium make any one else sick?
-
waiting for my second fill on the 22nd, only have 3mL and my weight loss has stopped.
-
I have been asking at the clinic to start a group? anyone else interested in catching up??
-
My first fill certainly hasn't done much either... still able to eat more than we are supposed too, and able to eat almost everything. My weight is stuck too!! I am in Meadows. Suzie :thumbdown:

Had my first fill today, when the doctor drew back to see how much was in the band from the surgery, there was nothing! No wonder everything goes down! So I now have 3ml in a small AP band, back in 2 weeks for some more. I managed to eat fine tonight and drinking is not a problem... -

Well after getting more fibre in my diet! The weight is slowly going down again. I am also only trying to have 4 small meals a day now instead of 6 as you do on liquid. Waiting now for the 7th April for my 1st fill and the 24th February to eat ''normal'' foods again! -
Thanks for the reply and reasurance!

Having the same problem! I can see why it is called hell waiting for a fill... -
embarassing and potentially dumb question...

I actually have been perscribed the pill for facial hair, one called Yasmin which has an anti androgen (anti testosterone) in it and it works well, I skip the breaks because I don't have to have a break as I don't ovulate. It helps! -
Hi! I have still been having some trouble with my left shoulder and pain, but it eases. Going on to slightly thicker foods as I am getting a bit hungrier and it is nice to be able to enjoy the same foods as my family even if they are slightly blended!
-
Hi, I too was banded by Dr Bessell on the 25th February! so far so good! can't wait for real food though!
-
Hi all!! I started my new 'banded' life on the 25th February and would love to talk to other who have done so too!! Suzie

How exciting! I am trying some slightly thicker food tonight as I am getting too hungry!! -
I can understand the frustration on not being able to work out! but be patient with yourself, this is a life journey not a quick fix! Suzie x
