I am happy I have found this forum. I too am a slow loser. I was banded Dec. 2009 and have only lost 30 pounds thus far. I am getting back on track. I gained 15 of the 30 pounds I lost but I am happy to say that in a month and a half I am back at my oringinal 30 pound loss. I believe we can do it. We just have to stay motivated and keep moving forward.

Thanks you guys for all the support. I went in today and was informed that my pouch is back to normal. I was very happy to hear that. I am only 13 pounds down. I am a slow loser but it has been picking up lately. You really don't know how much it means to me to have support. I don't really have anyone to talk to about what I am going through.

My Dr. is Kenneth Hollis with True Results. I do not attend support groups because I work nights and live in Humble. I would love to work on being around people that are going through what I am going through and would love to talk to you as well.

Thank you so much. I really needed to hear that.

I am a 27 year old single female in Houston, Texas. I am 3 months out with 11 pounds lost. I am having a difficult time realizing when I am full. I went to the doctor to get a fill and was informed I stretched my pouch. I have been put on 3 days liquid and 4 days soft foods. I am so disappointed in myself. I don't think I have a clue as to what I am supposed to do to make this work. I need help.

I had my first fill today. When I was banded my doctor initially put in a little over 5cc. Now I have 6.3cc in my 10cc band. I have more restriction but I really need to get to my sweet spot.

Hi all. I was banded Dec 7. I get my first fill Jan 15. I am so ready for more restriction.

I was banded on the Dec 7th. All my incision sites are neat and clean. My doctor used glue to close them up. Besides the terrible gas I had when I woke up everything seems fine. I just still a little sore.

I had my surgery yesterday. Everything went well except the terrible gas pains I had when I woke up.

Thanks alot. Your advice really helped.
