it's been a year and a half since my last fill well after gaining 40lbs i went back to my dr.and he measured it and gave me a small fill that day i had a sore throat and didn't think much of it cause sometimes when it happens it goes a way in a day or two and im fine well it is worse today and i don't feel good so it must be a cold . i cant drink or eat i only managed to drink a small gatorade and i sipped on it most of the day tried coffee and hot tea nothing helps i just pb it.my question is how long should i stick this out i am thinking a day or two if it don't improve at all

it's been a year and half seens my last dr.visit and i have gained 35lbs back i keeped trying to lose on my own and i just keeped gaining and i want to go to my dr.and get a fill but im afraid he will chew me out and maybe that is what i need to get me back on track so the question is has anyone went back to their doctor after a big gain?and if so what happened?i'm sure it depends on your dr.some can be asses.

my dr.was really nice he just went over the rules and eating plan and exercise and gave me a fill

i am going to go see the doctor monday the 17th.hope he gives me a fill

hi my name is shirley , iv'e been banded for a year and a half iv'e lost 100lbs.now my scale seems stuck love to have someone to talk to who understands about the lapband and someone who wants to share there ups and downs with this band someone i can work with on moving past this stall with and i would love to also help anyone with what ever they r struggling with. thx

mine never told me to ever go on liquids after a fill then again he never tells me much at all i get all my info online

how long should someone do liquids

love chris he's from extreme weightloss not biggest loser and he also has great workout dvd i have them both the workout out is a great beginner dvd and bootcamp really works you out good

congrats

great list thanks

i agree with everyone else makes no sense at all i wasnt losing much at all till i started walking fast and jogging and i love it .

never really thought about it , everything everyone posted sounds good

i've only had 2 fills,they r every 4 wks.started 4 wks after surgery

good luck with your surgery

thanks for the laugh that sounds like something i would do

dont b nervous its not bad at all i didnt even fill mine

welcome to lapband talk good luck with your journey

i like natural valley peanut butter dark cho.protein bars,190 cal,10 protein,14 carb.they fill me up and im only 6wk post op and i use them as a meal or a snack dont know if my dr allows them of not but i love them and i only eat one a day sometimes twice but thats not very often.

has anyone tried bio oil and if so how long after surgery did u start using and does it work good?and if not bio oil what else did you use for stretch marks and scars that worked good?

for me its chips i cant just eat a just one pk.thats why i dont think im going to b able to ever eat them again cause everytime i do i go overboard

im sorry ur brother treated you like that,it was a couple of days for anyone called and checked up on me.so i know it can hurt when ppl that should care enough to check up on u dont.

you r talking about wanting the glue off not the strips right??

no i was 8 days post op when i did it and it didnt sting at all

i used alcohol on mine i asked my dr first and he said ok, i used a cotton ball and rubbed it till it came off
