slow loser? i lost only 29 punds since 8/2006! i am on my 8th adjustment. i honestly think that your banding need to be perfect in some people. i think that you can manipulate into eating more, for example if i get too full and still want to eat i can SLOW SIP liquids to push food down to eat more. i excersise when i want, i eat bad foods some times and at wrong times. i think your weight loss is ok, hang in there

YOU LOOSE SO MUCH MORE WEIGHT faster BUT THE END RESULT WILL BE THE SAME, JUST NOT SO QUICK. ITS NOT EVEN HEALTHY TO LOOSE WEIGHT THAT FAST. DONE FORGET THE BYPASS HAS A MUCH MORE MORTALITY RATE, MORE COMPLICATIONS (DIARRHEA, GAS, DEATH, DEHYDRATION, MALNUTRITION) AND IT IS HARD TO REVERSE (VERY)

Fast or gradual?

How much weight have you lost? i just got my secound band yesterday. The first was way too tight. My Dr. adjusts with a upper gi, which is a very good idea. I dont feel like i have any swelling, i can swollow much better now. What do you mean by it takes 1-2 weeks to kick in??
