They have an ad on TV about this.....to eat 2 bowls of cereal day and u will lose weight...

Have you tried Splenda?

I was banded a month after you and was recently unfilled totally due to a surgery I was having and I have gained about 5-7 lbs. I just went and had a total of 1cc put in and I am ready to lose the remaining weight that I need to lose. I got a treadmill right before Christmas and I have started to walk a mile each night. Maybe try to start some type of exercise. I know that is the last thing that anyone wants to do..but it will help....Good Luck to you!

Try nothing but warm liquids for the next 24 hours, that will help with the swelling and the liquids won't irritate the stomach like the "real food" will..Good Luck

You have come to the right place for support...That is what we are all here for....So Welcome!!!!!!!!!!

If you do a search for his name many posts will come up....

Welcome and stick around!

Vinesqueen, If I loose my band I will surely be back to trying everything.........just like Lisa!!

You and your beautiful daughter are in my thoughts and prayers....

Good time to post this...........nothing old or weird....Thanks to Hurricane Rita!

Congrats..... you deserve it!

Also remember, OUR cost of the band is $ 3000.00......what the Doctor actually pays for it is a whole lot less!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
