Thanks Denise,

I agree quality of life, there is something to be said about that. I was pbing everything. Why do you think it happened, do you think stress or just that the band has a mind of its own? It just started getting tighter and tighter:eek:

Did we know you had an unfill? Sorry if you posted and I didn't catch that. What's the story? How are you now?

Janine

I can't imagine the hurt I'd do if I got an unfill right now, because my will power is at an all time low since being banded. The band is the only thing keeping me from falling off the wagon completely.

Both of you, keep us posted.

I have eczema---got it as an adult--and it is the type that is triggered by my nervous system---AWESOME (insert major sarcasm!) With the start of school and the the heat in my classroom in Dallas--it was the ingredients needed for a flare up from the utter depths of Satan's colon!

Anywho, because of the swelling of my skin etc.. it only made sense that my insides would swell too. (I had not had a flare up since my surgery) So basically I started Pbing more than usual---throwing up Water and coffee---could continue with it and didn't want a slip, so I went to my doctor and he was going to take out just a bit---well after he took out 1cc they had me drink some Water and I had a little pain (like it was going to come up)--so he decided to side with caution and do a complete unfill. Then I had to go to my GP and get a three week major dose of Steroids--that's right girls--moon pie face medicine!

Major freak-out moment. I was completely deflated until a couple of ago and I got a fill under fluoro (no slip :o) --very conservative--still think I need a little more. But as I was saying before, I don't want to get as much as I was before--just in case of another flare up.

So there was my story--:phanvan

Thick chick.....You have to put your pictures in some online account, ...I use Image hosting, free photo sharing & video sharing at Photobucket

It's free, you just open an account and download your pics from your computer onto Photobucket, then from there you use the URL from that to copy and paste into your LB profile.

It took me a while to figure it out.

Perhaps someone else can give you more details, I'm no computer whiz.

hope it works for you

      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.
