I just had my band emptitied on Monday. I was throwing up everything even in mouth at night when I was sleepin I felt like crap..I have had my band a year and I am happy with my weight and I feared I would gain weight but I have had so much energy That I am not even worried about it anymore I feel so much better. I am glad you went in earlier I waited almost a month and I felt like I was wasting away...becareful On the turkey :crying:

I have always heard it easier to lose weight when your younger but who knows if this is true. I can say My cousin was 22 when she had hers and she lost a 100 pounds ( she was 269 when she started and with out a day of working out) I was 32 when I had mine done and only losted 50 lbs my first year( I started at 227 and worked out often) so you never know.

I love the WII Fit! oh the sounds crack me up lol

I love how your sister said those things about the thanksgiving dinner and the pizza!! All I can say to you is you will love the smaller jeans than that slice of pizza and as for thankingiving you will still enjoy it just smaller portions but you won't be the one after the holiday boo hooing about gaining weight!!

Update I went into the Doc today he empty me I am a little worried but I was down to 178 making it a 50 lb weight lose I drank water and didn't run to the bath room to through up. I am going to get my fluid up and go take my long 3 mile walks I miss so much. I go back in Thursday and we will discuss addingmore fluid but My goal was to weigh 180 and be a size 12 which I hit all my goals !!! Thanks for all the support

I am new to this site but I thought it would be cool to blog. First off my weight...since i know I like to read what other did after a year. The day of my surgery I was 5'7 and weighed in at 227 and even though my year check up is not until next week I weighed my self on the 6th and I weighed in at 181.6 I went from a size 16/18 to a 10/12... I have seen many people lose weight a lot faster but I am good with where I am at. I got my lap band for free I got in on a study for people that have lower Bmi!!! I was pretty blessed with this one..But, now that the weight is falling off I throw up eveything and sometimes water do not even got down. I follow the rules not eating flour products or drinking while I eat but this is not fun right now....

That is very awesome! I will look for you post and will love to read it when you no longer see the that 2** I can not tell you the jumpin for joy when I acrossed over to The 1**...the way your going it will be here sooner than later

The best advice I can give you is never compare your self to anybody else.. Many things will factor in a weigh lose. I know I wanted mine to fall off fast but faster is not always better. It does not feel the best but most are back to work in a few days.

I can not ..I can not tell you when the last meal stayed down at least a 7-10 days ago I have maybe got about 60 oz of fluid down since Monday. The thing is I have not had a fill since January. I thought the band loosen as you lost weight. I was working out but now I have no energy to do so. I was blessed to be able to work from home or else I am not sure were I would find the energry. The thing is if someday things do go down the band can not be to tight or is it I am to find someone else that may have gone through this. The weight lose may look great but I feel like crap!!!
