    Help - Swollen Abdomen

    Not sure if anyone is out there to read and respond to my post, but I've been banded for 2 years as of May. I've lost 150 pounds todate but lately I've been having issue with purping after eating and feeling stuck or full after taking medication. I've never had this pproblem before. Any thoughts?

    Weight

    I need somesupport. I had my Lap band surgery last May 2010. I have done very well losingthe weight. I was 424 and got down town to 395 on my own since having the surgery,I'm 279 and stuck. I have not lost any weight in over a month. I work outeveryday and I feel like I'm eating correctly. What am I doing wrong or do Ineed another fill? I was losing about 7 or 8 pounds a month, now I'm no tlosing anything and I workout everyday with the exception of Saturday and Sunday. I ride the bike and walk on the treadmill for and hour wach time. I even wear a Sunna suit sometime. What am I doing wrong. I only need to lose 20 more pounds.

    Any June Bandsters???

    I was banded at the end of May. Meeting doctor next week I have been following the plan. However, I'm starting to get a little frustrated, I hope everything is working because I have not had any problems eating the recommended diet food or drinking water or taking my medicine. I have lost some weight but lately it appears that I'm not, I have been working out every day, two times a day. Riding the bike and tread mill 30 minutes on the tread mill and 30 minutes on the bike. I have not had a fill yet, maybe that will make a difference and the weight will start coming off more. I have had anything but Shakes and soup, today I ate beans. I plan to stay positive, I plan to particpate in the aerobics class tomorrow and then ride the bike. Hopefully, some more of this weight will start coming off.
  5. I just had the surgery last week and weighed 388 the week before that. I was placed on a pre opt diet and weighed in on the day of surgery at 375. Since the surgery my weight has stayed around 358-360. I'm working out twice a day for 30 minutes and drinking shakes, I made a mistake last night and ate a blueberry muffin, I finally cleaned out my refrigerator and pantry with anything that would tempt me further. I learned last night that this mental and I need to be strong, going to look at different shakes and protein today. I need to be able to mix fruit or bananas into those shakes it's getting old.
