  1. I was banded in March of this year. I have a 10cc band and am at a fill of 7. I had never thrown up until Monday of this week. It was from bad fish and not eating too much. I have not been able to eat anything since then because of the pain. I can't get in to see my doctor until Monday, so I figured I would ask the Lap Band world if anyone else has had this experience?? Swollen sore stomach or slipped band? What does a slipped band feel like??

    Swollen or Slipped Lap Band??

    I can drink ok, and have been able to keep the premade Protein shakes down with not too much pain, it's just food that hurts?

    JUST HAD 3 RD FILL .

    I was banded in March this year, just got to 7cc and FINALLY am starting to loose from restraint. My doctor told me if you have a 10cc band that most people don't feel much until they reach 7-9cc. I came home from the hospital at 0cc so it was a LONG wait to get the feeling like the surgery was worth it. Ask your doctor what size band you have??
  4. I am Jen, 33, mom of two. I was banded 3/17 and would love some friends on here!! Someone to kick me in the bum when I feel blah, or has crazy itchy scars too, share tips, recipes, SUPPORT!! All friend requests are welcome!! Jen
  5. I use an app on my phone called myfitnesspal.com, I wish this site was like that so we could push each other!! They are having this "april springs" competition but I feel like it's cheating to take part, now if it was ALL newly lapbanded people that would be awesome!!! I can't wait to be able to exercise
  6. You would think with all of our online knowledge being in our 30's this site wouldn't be so complex!!!
  7. Thank you! How is it for you one month out?
  8. I have a daughter 1.5 and my son is 3.5, I'm having a hard time NOT carrying them, I have to keep reminding myself it's only been a week!!! I am feeling great other than the crazy itchness if the scars, how about you?
  9. Thank you for posting to my search for lapband friends!

  10. Hungry... It still hurts to drink the protein shakes.

    Skin Tightening Cream

    I just posted that the other day, no responses yet!! I bought St. Ives all over firming lotion yesterday... I will let you know how it goes!
  12. I am 5 days post opp and my skin is very dry & itchy. I also want to know if anyone out there has found a lotion that helps really well on tightening the skin. I would like to start using something now before the weight really starts to come off!

    left shoulder pain?

    I have it too. My doctor said it is from the gas they put inside of you during surgery. The body needs to absorb it, light walking or exercise speeds up the process I guess. I am only 5 days post opp and feel like it's a traveling heart attack!
