That is my biggest fear...having my band slip! My doctor told me that if my band slipped I would know it because I would not be able to keep any food down and I would be vomiting all the time.

Foods you eat/don't eat?

I have been banded since September 14th, 2010 and have lost 35.5 pounds. I have been filled once and since the fill I can not eat bread or hashbrowns; my doctor told me that forms a plug and gets stuck. I can not eat raw broccoli, but if it is in small pieces I can eat it cooked. I can eat pizza, but only 1 piece versus the 4 or 5 I used to eat. If I go out to eat, I cut my steak in half, eat mashed potatoes with it, as I can not do fries either, same problem as hashbrowns. If I have a casserole I measure a cup and keep it at that portion. So I have to make sure my meat is moist or chew it very very good. Steak is my favorite when dinning out; so that has been no problem for me. However, no matter what I eat, I can not drink anything until about 30 - 60 minutes later or it will all come back up. Unless it is small sips of water. Wonder if anyone else has that issue? -
You look Great! How much weight have you lost since last Thanksgiving 2009? Great photos!

I had to go through a 6 month MD Diet with my doctor before insurance would approve me. I was afraid to loose any weight with the MD diet as then I felt they would deny me. So I lost only 5 pounds in a 6 month period. But after the MD Diet it took a couple of weeks to be approved.

It has been 6 weeks since I have been banded and I have lost 21 pounds! YAHOO! I had my first "fill" today and that wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Things are looking up!

Hello There! I am doing pretty good! Slowly coming off, I was banded a month ago and have lost only 18 pounds, so that is better then I have ever done before on my own, so this is good! I came on slow, so I am sure its going to take some time. I can eat just about anything so I have to really watch what I do eat. But this lifestyle change has been great! Hope all is well with you! Pam
