Type II Diabetes Diet with LapBand?
girly831 replied to Shamrockgirl60's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
NEED HELP! I had lap band almost 3 years ago and was not taking any meds. When I finally got around to getting my blood work done, it was all too high. Started taking metformin again, which did not work to lower my levels. Then I added Januvia, which did not work at all. Stopped that and started Glimeperide which made my gain about 10lbs very quickly. I was so frustrated I went back to my PCP and we are trying Byetta. Still I have not lost any weight and am very frustrated. the last time I saw my Bariatric Surgeon he told me he did not want to adjust me any further because I'm already at 9.5cc and I have an 11cc band. what are you guys eating to maintain sugar and lose weight? -
I think I may have a slippage as well, I had a rib out of algnment that was put back in place by my chiro. About 2 weeks later I have been having what feels like stomach spasms, I can eat fine, no reflux just some back pain along with the spasms. What is the process if the band has slipped?

I actually am no longer weighing 2 x day. I have been on a very long plateau and have now started back on metformin, zocor and lisinopril. I have been having a really hard time losing, I have gained a good 5 lbs instead. Very frustrated, still working out 5x week for about 45 minutes and still no losing. Need some advise!!! -

Gov. Christie had the same surgeon as I did, Dr Richard Boorse. In Allentown, PA at LVH, he was even on the news last night. Good Luck to him! -

How do you take the apple cider vinegar? I would think it would not agree with your stomach...

Just checking in to find out how my other fellow October 2011 bandsters are doing...

You are doing great! I haven't lost that much. I was banded on October 5, 2011. I finally hit the 25lb lose mark. It has been sloooooooow. Since I started the pre-program I have lost a total of 32lb. What is your secret? What are your typical meals for the day?
