    Need to get back on track

    I have the same story but I gained a lot , 50 pounds back. I went to doctor and lost 28 in 28 days. Can happen to all of us, you just had the courage to admit it and want help. We are all here for you. Good luck....

    Sometimes it does. Look for the tells before it does... You will start to burp and the then it will tell you time to stop..

    Frustrated

    First potato are starch, protein then veg then carb. 1/2 cup is the rite amount. you should not be hungry after that. use trick small plates, and chew chew chew . look up the you-tube video dr Obrien 8 golden rules , it explains the best way to do the lap-band

    you might be eating too fast or not hewing enough.. remember 1 min between bites.. I had a fill 1 month ago and I tried pot roast last night, oh my god it got stuck on second bite, I eat slow and still, put that in memory bank no pot-roast for me ... good luck if that does not work, call you doctors. don't panic it makes it worse.

    8 weeks w/o the Band

    stay strong you can do this. This is like being on vacation for your body, it maybe 1 to 2 week trip but your body will come back home... then you will have the mind set. Be strong .....

    cc's in band

    Along the same topic.. I went 4 years between fills and was told I had 7c put in , then when I went back to new doctor I was told that 4 cc were in there... Where did the other cc go to ???? I now have 6 cc in there and feeling great and back on track....

    Restarting fills after lapse in time.

    I did the same thing to myself... thankfully I found a local doctor and a great staff getting me back on track. I had a fill last week after we found only 4 cc in rather then 7.5 I was told by other doctor when I left him. I have to start my thinking about food all over again. wish me luck. started at350 lost 80 kept most off til married 2 years ago gained back a lot.330 starting again...
