Tired, food demons wont stop telling me to eat, eat, eat. I think something else is wrong with me. Why do I still keep doing the same bad things, such as the wrong foods and wanting to eat all of the time. Is this happening to anyone else in band land. lost about 50lbs since oct,2006, feel like it should be more lbs gone. have not drop any weight since feb, keep gaining and lossing the same 3 lbs since.

food just keep talking to me, eat, eat, eat. Tires of it. Feel like something else is wrong with me. why do I still want to eat all the time and eat the wrong foods. Is this happening to anyone else in band land.

<p>like Shesha said, I was also</p> <p> banded 10-03-06 and after 3 weeks i had a bad pain in he port area. the 1st fill was very hard but, the Dr. worked hard and I got filled. Went for the 2nd fill and Dr. relized that the port had fliped. Went back to surgery on Feb. 15,2007 for port revision. Yes, the port can become detached very easy because it is stitched to a muscle and its weak and not so strong.</p>

Good for you , in no time you will see the benefits and it feels good, I know the pre op diet is hard and the 3 weeks post op diet is also but, in about a month and half I know you'll see about 30lbs gone if you follow the rules. You can do it, I did it. I had surgery 10-03-06 and by chrismass I was 200lbs, Started at 245lbs at my pre op visit before surgery. let me know how great you look about 6-8 weeks after surgery. If you are having any problems and someone personal to talk you though this, you can email me. I will help you. When you feel weak and feel like eating the wrong thing i'll be right here for you. We are a family now though the lapband. I'll give you my phone # as so as you email me. God bless you, happy new year and a happy now you.:clap2: you made a good choose with the band.let me know

My Date Is 10-03-06 I Am So Happy, I Started Preop Diet Last Monday, This Is Week 2. It Gets Hard Some Time, I Had A Party At My House On Saturday For My Little Niece Who Turned 1, But I Survived Not Eating The Food. I Can't Wait For This Week To Fly By, Please Help, I Want To Eat. I Keep Telling Myself I Don't Need The Food But Myself Is Not Hearing That. Some One Please Tell Me What To Do.

Brenda DR.SZOMSTEIN is my doctor, I live in miami please call 786-252-1476. I am so sorry about your insurance. I know how you feel the doctor at palmetto hospital told me bluntly that he would not do the lap band for me.

hello, today is my first time posting. I have been visiting obesityhelp.com since June and just found out about lap band talk. I have done most of my pre surgery test and I can't wait for my date. I have learned alot on obesityhelp from the bandters and I hope to l learn and enjoy the bandters on Lap Band Talk. 236-240lbs now gool 127lbs.

Hi everyone, thanks for all the replies and welcomes, I feel at home already. Today is a big day for me, I finally got my surgery date 10-03-06. I am not looking forward to the protein drinks but, I am looking forward to the big day, Thank God.

brenda which dr. have you seen at the cleveland clinic, i have 115lbs to loss. my dr. told me it will take 2 years with the lap band but, thats ok for me, i only want the lap band. maybe the dr. feels that you want the weigth to come of quickly

with all the problems bandters get, should a new take the risk to be banded
