Please help..I'm banded, but I've lost my motivation completely
aimlagana replied to Mysticalks's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Hi Kara, This is such a coincidence! I'm in the same boat. I was just trying to search for others that were banded in October. I was banded on 10/23/07 and am down 52 pounds / 60% but I'm hitting a brick wall. I just don't feel the drive and motivation that I did in the beginning. I can't quite put my finger on what my problem is. Up until two weeks ago, I was plugging along. Eating decent and doing cardio for an hour everyday. Maybe we can help each other get back on the horse and just need some additional support. For tomorrow, I am committing to staying away from sugar. Let me know how I can support you. All the best, Aimee -
OK, I know the heading makes little sense, but here is what I mean. A bander for almost 18 months, I have lost about 60 lbs.... from 285 to 225 (wish it was more), but still moving along slowly. The only fat left is really my mid section (I'm a middle aged male, so mid section, tummy is always the problem zone)... and if I could get rid of the fat in the middle, I would lose about 30 lbs & be at my target. Recently, things have started to "flap" around more, like the fat that once was is "loosening" and it seems more "flabby" than dense fat.... Does this make sense?? And ok, if it makes sense, what do I do? I have about 25 minutes (from a 6 am to 10 pm schedule) to exercise daily. I'm wondering what others have done, and if this is normal? thanks !

I so not have 2 puppies (around 8-10 lbs each) and I avoided picking them up for at least the first week after surgery. I'm nearly 2 wks post-op now and still try to be careful. Internal sutures need to develop scar tissue to "anchor" the band and port. Picking up heaving objects of any kind too soon can damage or weaken those support anchors. Later down the road these weakened areas could lead to slippage, port flips etc. (now this does not mean that only heavy lifting is the cause of these types of complications... just known and avoidable risk factors)... this is how it was described to me! -- utilize any and all your support systems at least the first couple of weeks because it is not worth risking damage/trauma of any kind to your new lap-band --

I am 10 days out and still on clear liquids. The last couple days I've had spells of mild nausea after being on my feet for a few hours, to the point that I had to lay down for a few minutes to let it pass. I haven't been able to stomach protein other than what I get from homemade chicken broth, so that's probably part of the issue for me. I agree that you should back off the soft foods for the time being.

If you have a Tanita BF% scale....
stinaNYC replied to TerriDoodle's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I personally think that all of those body fat % scales are wrong. I have one, too, and it's always suspiciously high. I go and have a caliper test done by the fitness trainer at my gym once every couple of months, and to the *percentage point*, my scale is ALWAYS off by 10%. When I first got the band, the scale told me I was 54% body fat, but the trainer told me I was 44%. Now, the trainer tells me I am 27% body fat, but the scale is telling me I'm 37%! I say...take what the scale says with a HUGE graint of salt. -

LittleRed30 posted a topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I'm a stress eater and the past year has been been nothing but stress and no insurance so no fills... a little history.. I was Banded 1/6/10 I was doing GREAT was loosing so well I didn't have my first fill until 8/10 and thats where things went to hell...ever since then i've been able to eat more and eat stress foods...BAD foods. the stressed....We moved from NJ to RI, which was something we had wanted for years got here and the family that wanted us here well didn't really it was just something they were saying to be nice and a marriage that was already having troubles got driven apart and my husband and I divorced. We have now moved 4 times since July 08 and all that has lead to a ton of fast food and stress eating. Life has calmed down a bit we are in our home now with my girlfriend how ever we are doing nothing but gaining together... i've gained 50.7 back I had lost a full 100lbs!!!:smile2: I need some tough love to help me get back on my feet and back to living life again. I will finaly have insurance in December and am already making calls to doctors to get a fill. I want to feel like I did post op NOT HUNGRY!!! Thanks for listening -
Anyone cheat on pre-op diet
Dibley Dawn replied to cbreeden28's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
my doctor allowed veggies too, but no yogurt or any of that. i could only use Protein shakes and 1 cup of veggies per day. so, it sounds like you have more options than I did. while you may lose weight on the pre-op, please try your best not to cheat on it again. you can make it 14 days and that is really the most difficult part (other than the 10 days of liquids only right after surgery, if your doctor makes you do that) if you are really having trouble sticking to the diet, you should contact your doctor and tell him. don't try to reason with yourself and give yourself permission to eat cheese or do anything that is not per the doctor. that is not a good way to go into this process. if you do that kind of reasoning now, believe me you will do that after you have healed and are ready to eat real food again. resolve now to do what you are supposed to do and stick to it as best as you can. -
Hi Guys....My name is Melisa and ive been a banster for 3 years now! Ive lost 70 lbs and have no regrets about getting the band! Ive gone from a size 20 to a 14 so far! My band was too tight a year ago and i had 1/4 cc taken out. i gained some weight from that so i just had some put back in. im hoping to get down to 150 or size 10! whichever comes first! I recently started walking so im hoping that will help too. My band is pretty tight again so i can mainly only eat soups comfortably. No big bulky foods! And that is good for me! Keeps me away from burgers and pizza as well as other bulky fattening foods!!! I will try to post some before and after pics soon. If anyone has any questions feel free to ask. Good luck banster friends! <3

Your fill was on the 12th so that means you've been trying to sustain on about half of the calories you need daily for about 10 days, and bupring and sliming. If it was going to resolve itself it would've by now. It sounds like you are too tight and need a slight unfill. Contrary to urban legend, too tight is not good. It doesn't make you lose faster, in fact, it often will even result in a gain because you're forced to live on slider foods. Very often when someone is too tight they lose more after a tiny unfill because they actually eat adequately and healthy again. Too tight is also the leading cause of band slips. It's simply not worth the risks. Best wishes.

I had my surgery 5 weeks ago. I am down a total of 24 lbs but in that time I lost most of it in the first 2 weeks, then stalled the 3rd week and week 4 lost close to 10 lbs. In the last week I have lost nothing again. I am doing everything the way I was instructed. I drink fluids, get 60-80 grams of protein daily, take my vitamins and am slowly incorporating solids into my diet. I do not eat anything I shouldn't. Mainly protein, veggies and fruit once a day. I make my own protein shakes. I cannot work out due to having severe spinal stenosis and degenerative disc disease in my lower back. I cannot walk for long periods of time. I was told I can swim but not until after I go for my post op appointment in 2 weeks. I do some resistance training with rubber bands on my arms and legs. Is it normal to stop losing?

Thank you Tonks. That is very encouraging! I haven't been within 20 lbs of my ideal weight in 10 years. Do you really feel full after your meals or do you feel like you're dieting?

Don't be embarassed! I also had my surgery in January & I am only down 30 lbs. & 10 of that was in this last month. I too am a sugar/chocolate addict. I think one of the things that has made a difference in this last 10 lbs is that I discovered Well's Blue Bunnies fat free, sugar free, white chocolate & almond icecream bars. They are so good & don't really taste diet! Keep your chin up! I think the weight loss is just a little slower for some of us. I look at it this way - At least I'm losing!! Keep up the good work!

This past month has been the hardest since I was banded. I've posted before I have continued to eat well and exercise, but the scale was being stubborn. I normally lose between 10-12 lbs a month and this month I lost 5.2 lbs. I was also shorted 2-3 days because it's feb lol. Details... I started reading about interval exercises and decided something had to change because my body was fighting me hard core. I switched from an hour of walking with 15 mins of steady jogging back to a walk to a new interval of fast walking for 2 mins and then jogging for 2 mins for an hour. It worked up a good sweat kept my heart rate up longer and OH MY GOODNESS the scale moves again! From the start we're told these wonderful plateaus are gonna come. We expect them and when they come we still get down in the dumps and shout at the sky haha. There is hope!Anyone else dealing with this just keep on pushing! Don't let those little bumps that feel like friggin mountains get ya down. That being said... remember I told you that because I'm sure I'll be all boo hoo again at some point.

My name is BinkieGirl, but you can call me Bink. I was banded on July 10 2003 by Dr. Bradley Needleman in Columbus Ohio. So far I've lost somewhere around 20 pounds thanks to several complications including having my stomach swell shut for several days. All in all, I'd do it again in a heartbeat. I look forward to meeting all of you and getting to know you!

i had my band 4/2. I've been on Protein shakes and have been good for the most part, and some okay foods like yogurt, applesauce, mashed potatoes, etc... i refuse to "puree" stuff. yuck. yesterday I had some very moist skinless chicken (diced, and I chewed very well). later in the day, I had a couple Doritos (no, I dont intend on being bad), and some cashews. chewed the cashews well, of course. sorry, I have been exercising ALOT more and for some reason have been alot hungrier.. I've lost 14 lbs since my band 10 days ago..! a couple days ago I had a couple pieces of wheat melba toast. so far everything has stayed down fine without discomfort or anything else. any thoughts or feedback from anyone? is my band going to slip? am I hurting myself? or is everyone's healing a bit different?

A new life right then was sought!:w00t: You weren't perfect, nor was I - I recall - but I knew that we'd be fine we went everywhere together and were happy.. for a time:tt2: I knew what I now wanted and strode out; I would achieve it As time went by you needed more support and I admit I struggled to relieve it:sad: So now it's time to move on dear friend -tho you still excite my eye..

Hey Dianne, Congrats...I know you have to excited. When Bobbi calls you to set up the surgery date, you will get 2 appts, a pre-op and post op appt. So yes you will see him again before the surgery. I actually saw him and his assistant durning my pre op appt. Be prepared to be there awhile, my pre op appt was @ 10:00 and it was @ 12:30 when I got out of there. I am sure it should take that long all the time but just be prepared. I had my husband with me. I actually talked to Bobbie yesterday, becasue I was suppose to be scheduled for my fill by now and I hadn't heard from her. Dr V's other nurse is on vacation so she hasn't been able to schdulel anything. She said she should be back monday. Hopefully you will get a call very soon. I would call her if you haven't heard from her by friday. I have her number if you don't have it... Good Luck....keep us posted!!!! Hang in the Melissa....

Hey Carrie, I was banded 8/10 and I feel the same things you are feeling. We will be ok. We need to keep a positive attitude. We can do this. I am sending you lots of *Hugs* and *support*. I have to be honest and say I thought I was going to bounce right back and feel wonderful and I don't. I have cried a few times in the last few days. I miss food but am not hungry or maybe I am. Sometimes I think it is just a battle with the food demons I have in my head... Take care... we will get through this... !! Love, Lisa Marie

It's quite a headtrip isnt it? I rememeber pre banding, all of the last year I went on shopping sprees where I bought size 16 clothes to stockpile. I bought a few 18's too which I am wearing now. In my mind, 16's (US 14) were tiny tiny tiny and they represented my goal weight. I have to say I think sizing has changed an awful lot since I was last a 16, since I'll be wearing those clothes in another 10kg! But I cant get my head around it - I try them on and they slip on easily - just cant get the zippers done up yet, lol. Before I couldnt even get them past my thighs. But I cant reconcile I'll be a 16 but I will still be overweight because I know they'll fit by 90kg which is still 20kg over my goal weight. So what, I'm going to be a 14 or even a 12? Last time I was a size 12 I was honestly 10 years old!!!!! But you just look the same to yourself however many pounds down dont you? You cant see that you've shrunk apart from when you catch sight of yourself suddenly or unexpectedly.

Aww, you're so sweet!! I'm VERY excited, and to be honest, kind of excited to have it over with, lol. I've been in panic mode all week for no particular reason. The wedding is a week from tomorrow, and then I'm gone another 10 days in Hawaii for our Honeymoon. I'll be sure to post TONS of pictures when I get back. I am SO PROUD of my dress. I designed it, and my mom made it, with some necessary modifications, and it's very, very cool. I leave on Tuesday to go down to the site with my mom, and everyone else involved comes down Thursday, with the guests arriving on Thursday and Friday. The final count is about 30 people, which is small, but that'll be nice as well, I think.

Hey sorry, hehe. I've been back since Thursday, but I wanted to wait until I had more good pics online. I'll attach a link to this one though: http://joygraffix.com/joygraffix/wedding/sarah2.jpg I'll update with more pics as I get them online. Everything went really, really well. I was afraid of some family feud issues, but my family handled themselves well also. After the wedding, we went to Hawaii for 10 days for our honeymoon, which was also very nice. We went scuba diving with Manta Rays, and then spent a good amount of time just relaxing and unwinding. I will admit, I'm glad the wedding is over. I've never been so stressed, lol. Other than that, since hubby (hehe) and I have been living together for some time now, everything is just business as usual, with the exception of me needing to get my name change done (waiting for the marriage license).

I just got a call from my best friend, I've know her since we were 16. 27 years now. Her mother died this morning. She'd been sick for a while with lung problems, went into the hospital on Monday. Yesterday she was doing a little better, but took a bad turn. My friend lost her father about 10 years ago and we've talked a bit about being an "orphan" even as adults. It hasn't yet hit me that I've lost someone I loved, I've been focusing on how my friend and her family are. It will soon I know.

I am in the same boat. I'm three weeks out tomorrow. I lost 15 pounds pre-op, another 10 in the first week and a half, and I've been gaining and losing the next 3 ever since. I haven't even moved on from strained liquids yet- not til tomorrow, so I know it's not over eating. I struggle with the Protein (mixed without ice or anything - too thick per Dr. - I can barely tolerated any I've tried). I'm about to think I'm going to be that 1% who never loses more than 20-25 lbs no matter what they do!

Sharp pains in incisions
kscdvm replied to kristyh's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
This is common for the largest incision where the surgeon removes your stomach. A larger part of the muscle has to be cut than the smaller ports for the laparoscopic instruments. It happened to me too. I found putting ice on it worked better than pain meds for me. I iced it 10 minutes every hour until it felt better.
