I just had my band installed and I haven't lossed any weight in four weeks. I guess it is my fault because I haven't really tried but when I eat I get chest pain so I stop. Is any body experiencing this?

Note: I'm getting my first adjustment april 1st.:tongue_smilie:

The weeks between your surgery and first fill are hard. You may not lose much weight and some people gain a few pounds. Make sure to eat very slowly and chew your food well to avoid the chest pain. Just keep with it and don't let it get you down!!

I had lap band on the 23rd if Feb. I went throught the samething. know the scales don't move. I lost 17lbs and this week it jumps up and down. and did all month. So I am going to just weight one time a week. I think some has to do with when you have a BM and how much Water you drink. I know I will go just a little and then I will have a real full BM and the weight will change every three or four days. I am crazy or has any one else feel this way.

I understand that. I went to the lady who bought my teadmill with a tv built in. She was my neighbor and personal trainner for a few months to redo my membership. I traded for a years membership. Well I had heart trouble a year aga Jan and phoneo so I but it on hold and now she changed jobs but she told me it was on hold. She said if not she is working at Hard Bodys and she would let me come there for my 10 months left. I am just feeling like I would enjoy that. I am sore from tilling my garden and mowing and planting thrusday still. I hope to get back into Water first.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
