Hi slinky yes its definitely not as user friendly as it used to be.I have probably put the same amount on as yourself over Xmas but before i would normally be a stone but I'm not to worried.Thats me started today to get back to normal eating plan again.What restriction have you got just now? <BR>No i have not had any fills since april and i dont think i will get any more fills in the near future as i still can eat alot but not enough for my weight to go up dramaticlly.It does get easier once you have reached your goal.

I think yoga would be be fine no problems.I have never stopped drinking since i got my band and have had no problems i drink cider and whisky not in the same glass right enough.lol Im not in to sweets and crisps to much so my alcohol is my treat.

Its just learning when you have had too much to eat im stil pb or being sick if i eat to much its just learning when to stop.

Hi slinky no i never really done any exercises.I done some swimming and rode a bike at the start but that stopped after a while.I also done some exercise on the wii but again i stopped that a while ago.I know people say you need to exercises but I'm proof that you can loose it without doing any.I have a bit of loose skin at my belly but thats about it and even that its not enough for me to bother getting anything done with it.

Hi Everyone

I was banded in August and have not had much weight loss success at all, I have had 2 fills but am still hungry and can eat about the same amount as before. Total loss to date is about a stone, next fill is on Sunday and I hope that will help.

I am off on holiday in 4 weeks and had hoped to be slightly slimmer by then, but as that hasn't happened yet I was thinking of doing some power plate sessions for inch loss, do u think they are safe or can they harm the lapband? Any advise would be appreciated.

Thanks

MD

Dont worry slinky it will come off eventully.You will find when you get more restriction and your portion sizes go down your weight will shift.Two stone is better off than on your going in the right direction.For the lucky ones the weight will fly off but for the vast majority its a slow proccess.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
