  11. dont see why not (as long as you dont swallow) but if you are concerned, call and ask the dr or nurse
  12. no, my band lets me know when enough is enough and the little hiccups are my sign to stop..whether i want to or not...
  13. when we go to movies, i bring me one of those 100 cal packs holly mentioned i have some at work too....never know when the urge strikes and mercy does it ever smell good
  14. no issues so far.......just very aware of my body and i know if something doesnt seem right, def checking with my dr...whatever does or does not happen, i will deal..
  15. I am not "bad" or "good" because of the foods i eat or don't eat this is your topic and it speaks volumns if people would just do what works for them, let go of labels and just focus on getting healthy.. excellent words for me to read this a.m. thank you
  16. not the band, but can feel my port when i put my hand where its at and esp when i walk. if i ever get to where its able to be seen, i am down with that...my friend who saved my life
  17. not me, it helps me (eat less) hence why i eat filling foods to help me stay full longer
  18. i wouldnt as i am not a doctor that is what i pay them to do..
  19. my most embarrassing, someone asked me when the baby was due...
  20. i think which ever surgery you are able to get, you should if its only the lap band, then work the h ell of out it and be a success if you get the band and plication, then again work the he ll out of it and be a success either one you will have to change what and how much you eat to lose weight. you do not need the plication to aid the band to lose weight. many on here do not have it. my dr offered it because my bmi was 62 and i was super morbid obese. he told me it wouldnt work unless i heled the band and plication. i say this only because i dont want you to get hung up on something that may or may not happen. which ever you get, it will work if you help it.
  21. to gain weight, you have to eat more calories than you burn off... as dylan and miss said, follow the dr's allotted amounts, eat good filling foods and you will do well.
  22. i never heard of this i have only a 12/dollar co pay each time i go to my lap band dr
  23. call their answering service and leave a message for them to call back..if very concerned go to the ER.
