  1. Congrats. You made the right decision. You won't be sorry, Yes not feeling hungry is a big part of the surgery. Just hang in there. There will not be a problem with the liquid diet. Just take one day at a time. Tigerlady.,
  2. Dear Banded, Don't be upset. I had the same exact same thing happen to me. Only I had my band in for 6 years..I found a Dr. and his office that really wanted to help me. I fought for what I wanted and got it. As of May 18th 2015 I got my revision with a better band. You have to fight for everything you want as far as this surgery. Don't be upset about you weight gain because that will help you get on step closer to a revision. Just please fight for what you want. If you live on Long Island perhaps I can really help you. Please e mail with any questions you have. @msannie720@aol.com. I will be glad to help. I know what you are going through and it's not fun. Just hang in there. Your revision will come,
  3. From Tigerlady. Don't let this do you in. Drink. get those demons out of your head. You've come to far to give in now. v
  4. Welcome Cheryl M. As you were told this is a wonderful site. You will do great. I just got out of the hospital with a revision of the lap band, It's just a great feeling and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Good Luck,
  5. Just continue to do what you are doing. The weight will come off. If you need more fills go for it. Your body will adjust to the weight loss, Lap band is a wonderful tool.
