Howdey yall for texas!! I have been banded since may 28 2011 and have went from 238 ti 185 when i started back in nov i weighed in at 239 lbs and now im done to 185 and three sizes lower i now can shop in the jr section for the large sizes and 15 instead of a size 20 wow it was great shopping in the reg size clothes. I have done great with the band and had very lil problems with it the last visit i had a fill and it has kept me on the straight and narrow now i can tell when to stop eating before i felt like i was eating still to much and then after the fill i can tell right away that im done. the only problem i have is that i got a rash a few days after surgury and it will not go away i have went to my reg doctor and she does not know what it is and so now i have to go see a specialist to find out what is going on, in hopes it is not a problem with the band. any how glad to read all the comments im sure it will help!!!

Hi, welcome to our forum. Congratulations on your weight loss! I have learned a lot and have received a lot from the group here.

Hoping the same happens for you! Drop in often. I lived in Richardson for a few years in elementary school and have family and

friends all over the Dallas area.

Hiya, Where is your "rash" located? If it's in the folds of your skin, its more than likely yeast.... rub on some monistat....

I had it too, it was awful.
