I have had horrible eating habits, which did not change when I got the band. The band only changes your stomach, but it does not change how you think about food, you have to do that on your own and that is the hard part. I often 'forget' I even have the band... Im being honest, i really thought everything was going to be different then it wasnt... -
Left Shoulder Pain After Lap Band Surgery
Thin_thoughts82 replied to vbaum's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
It is normal especially if you over eat... I find that walking makes is better. Also holding your breath for a bit helps ease the pain. -
I have had two fills and have not LOST any weight, I am at 4.4 cc's . Have you lost weight?

Hello,
Sorry its been a while, I've just been running around enjoying my summer, back to work tomorrow. . Hope everything is going well for you. I just had my first fill and don"t really feel a difference either. I am suppose to go back in 2 weeks for another fill if I need it. So how have you been doing since your first fill? Did you get another fill?

Hey Dena,
I had my first fill yesterday and I think I am feeling more full, I have been working out 3-4 days a week and everyone says they can see a difference, but my arch nemises (the scale) doesnt show it... How are you?
-
I am experiencing the same thing. I went to a meeting and was talking to other women. I guess this is one of the hardest times because we have not had a fill yet. I am eating fish, steamed veggies with hummus, and lots of soft foods. I found that I have to go to the gym and walk about 40 min. to keep losing. I am holding steady at 14 pounds lost. Just starting my 4th week. When is your first fill? I am sure that will help. Thanks for the message!!

Thank you for posting this, I have not lost (or gained) any weight and will be getting my first fill 8/5...hoping that will help move the scale.
-
Have you been losing? Not me, I have been eating normal food, but less than before, I am not gaining either, I just need to workout more I guess. Are you eating solid food?

Hi Lorraine,
Just saying hello. Hope all is going well. Good luck on week 3.

Just saw this and I am joining today! I need some workout motivation. I see that many people have huge goals, but I am doing 48 lbs, which seems impossible right now...let's see how this goes. -
wow, that was a great read...thank you for sharing.

Good for you! I also felt that the warm soups and broths were more filling than the cold shakes and drinks. How funny, I told my husband that the gas pain in my shoulder hurt worse than my tummy! Oh and I also walked around my house the first week as I live in TX and it is too hot and humid to be walking outside. Good luck!
