Seriously Need Help! Lapband Failure

[georgiarose77 0]

So... today I went and saw my surgeon after having basically no Fluid in my band for 5 weeks. I have put on 5 kg or 11 pounds in 5 weeks =( I have no idea how this happend, I have still been training 5 times per week and being super concious with food. I feel destroyed.

I agree with these folks but honestly there must be something wrong the docs are missing. Maybe u should change your team. Sometimes you need a fresh set of eyes. I wish you all the best and hope u get back to a happy u. *HUGS*

I would recommend counting calories for a week to see what you're really eating. When I estimate, I am really off.

I would strongly suggest using something like myfitnesspal.com (or the phone application) and logging what you are eating each day. You may be taking in more calories than you realize. Also, have you ever had your thyroid checked?

Please have them check your hormone levels especially your thyroid. Hypothyroid disease is very common in women and often goes unchecked. It is nearly impossible to lose weight with this disease if it goes untreated. They have to do a specific test for your thyroid levels (TSH) so ask your doc about this. Good luck!
