2 month into lapband

[jlg1019 0]

Hi: Sorry, its been a good while since your reply...they put my lapband forum talk in the junkmail part of my email folder, and I rarely look in it. Now, I will check it regularly. I do need a fill, but my doc says that I don't and to wait. I'm getting discouraged also, but will ask for a fill next month again. Yes, there are several foods that "go through fast", and I stay hungry also. I have to do better. Good luck, jlg1019

I explained to another nice person that my forum responses were put in my junkmail folder, and I didn't know about them. Sorry, I will check it regularly. Good to here from a fellow PCH employee. I do trust my Doctor...he's the best. I just get discouraged with the slow weight loss, but he gives me pep talks every month. Thanks for responding. jlg1019

Hey, sorry for the long wait..responses were put in my junk mail...I agree with you...I went through a lot to have it put in, and I want to take every advantage of the operation. Thanks for your perspective!jlg1019

I had my first fill 2 days ago. Just hurt for the initial needle stick. He injected 2cc then had me drink a cup of Water. Everything went fine. I don't really feel any restriction when eating but do seem to feel less hungry. He gave me a prescription for Vit B12 injections. I only got that because I asked for it. He said I didn't really need it but I just wanted to see if there would be a change in my energy.

I;m confused, why won't he give you a fill? there are fill centers everywhere if he won't oblige. What is the reason he won't?

Thanks for the quick reply...I hope that I get a fill soon to see if it will help. jlg1019

He just tells me that its not time since I lost as least six last month. Maybe this month since I have done awful. I feel that I have wasted a month of "maybe" losing!jlg1019

For those of you feelong depressed because you are waiting for a fill...I KNOW....I need one too....I have been fighting hunger all week and I even gained some weight back this week...I did better before the surgery!

I must admit, I was sorta told to stay in bed a get over my psoriasis outbreak this week...so, I definitely didn't move as much and thought about food/tv commercials way toooooo much!
