Perfect fill

I really don't know what a good fill is but I am assuming I now have a good fill. After this past month I was beginning to wonder if Lapband was for me or not. I am very happy with my weight loss. I could not do it all on my own. I am now down 62 pounds and it will be one year 2/17/11. Everytime I got fills I was very sick and he had to remove the fill. I went three different times. This last time he put in . 5 cc and then I had to go back and he removed half of it. I am at 4.75 in a 11 cc band

HELP PLEASE!

I had my lapband surgery February 17, 2010. I have now lost 61 pounds and very happy. I still have 67 pounds to go to be at my goal weight. It seems every time I go for a fill I end of very sick. My band holds 11 cc's. I am now at 4.5 cc's. I went in August and had 1CC put in. I had to go back both Saturday and Sunday and have it removed. I was throwing up every 15 minutes then once he removed some on Saturday I would throw up every hour. Then on Sunday he took it out. I just went back again on

Question

I had lapband back on February 17th. It was very quick and I had not seen the Nutritionist for over a year. Does anyone know the amount of protein you should have everyday? Also how often do you take your vitamins and what vitamins do you take? Thank you very much:crying:

4/22/10

Well I finally got some measurements done yesterday. I have known that I lost inches but did not measure until yesterday. I am down 3 1/2 inches around the waist and 4 1/2 inches around the hips. My arms have remained the same. I am down 27 pounds since October 1st, 2009. I can't see the difference but other people can. So that makes me happy. I will be even more happy when I start seeing the difference. :wink2:

Week 7

Hello everyone.   Well it has been over 1 week since I had some fluid removed from my band. I am at 2cc's. I am finally able to eat again. I think from here on out I am going to be on a liquid diet for a week after I receive fills. The pain is just to much if I attempt to eat anything. Feeling much better now. I also gave myself my 1st B shot today. :tongue_smilie:

1st fill

I had my first fill 6 weeks after my surgery. I could not eat or drink for 4 days. When I went back to doctor he stated he only put in 2.5cc's, he then removed .5 cc's of fluid. I was able to start drinking immediately. Now I am still having trouble with food. Even soft foods, I will eat a small bite then I get instant pain around my chest and then it goes to my right shoulder. Then pain is really bad. I am calling doctor tomorrow but would like to know if anyone else has experienced this?
