smaki 0 Posted September 24, 2008 So, I finally found a place where there are people who know what it is like to take the "Lap Band Leap". I had my band placed on April 18, 08 and have lost 56 pounds. I feel this last month I have finally started seeing results. I have a fill later this morning, and am hoping to get to my sweet spot. I feel I am close, but not quite there yet. The one thing I am really having a hard time with is... somedays I can eat 3 small meals a day, not be hungry in between. Others, I struggle with eating anything. It seems everything gets "stuck", and I am miserable. Anyone have days/times of the day when your band seems tighter? Excited to get to know you all!

karenintx 0 Posted September 24, 2008 I had my 4th fill on 9-15-08 - and for the past 9 days I can barely eat. I have lost 5 lbs (according to my scale) in the past week. Some days, things go down good, others nothing!! I am struggling to get the proper amount of Protein. The burping, etc. has gotten bad in the past week.

shersher 0 Posted January 15, 2009 I have had those up and down days too. Sometimes I am almost afraid to eat for fear it will get stuck. I am having trouble finding the right balance. I seem to have an easier time at night than in the mornimg. I struggle to eat Breakfast, usually don't eat lunch and sometimes no dinner or very little. I have lost 25 lbs. since Sept but I think I am in starvation mode. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
