  1. Hi everyone, I have had slight pain where my port is located for a few days now. Today I noticed it is red and swollen and I know this could be a bad sign but i'm not sure. I am not in severe pain only if i lay in my stomach, or move in a weird way so I dont know how bad this could be. Any thoughts? Please let me know if anyone has had this happen to them I am very worried and scared.
  2. Hey everyone!....My surgery was done on 3/31/2011 and I have lost 20 lbs. since then, I'm going to weigh myself tomorrow to see how much i've lost but my weight loss slowed now that I have soft foods. I feel afraid that I won't lose anymore when I go back to solid foods, is there any advice anyone can give me on how to keep shedding inches and pounds post surgery?
  3. Hi everyone! I'm 18 and today is my 2 week mark since having the gastric lap-band surgery. I just kind of wanted to know how much success everyone had at 2 weeks? Last friday I weighed myself and have already lost 18 lbs I will be weighing myself again today. Is it normal to feel nervous? Now that I have had the surgery I feel really afraid to not lose weight, I guess I am just anxious, but I know weight loss takes time. Any advice on how to not feel so anxious? I would really appreciate it. Love, Stef.
