DONYEIL

Hey guys I've had my band for around 6 years now and at first I lost weight so fast hitting my goal weight was a piece of cake around 4 years ago I had all my fluid removed because I was losing to much weight time went on and on I completely forgot that I didn't have any filling in my band now I've gained 60 pounds I was wondering if this happened to anyone and if getting a fill help with losing the weight all over again because I just dont wanna be so tight I cant eat but I need some restriction I'm like hungry all the time now and this year I wanna back track and get healthy again.

Congrats! I know you feel good mentally even though you are in pain physically good luck and much success

Cheers! And Good Luck On Your Journey!

:wub: Hello everyone! So i'm finally at the medical clearence point! Thank goodness all these doctor's appointments got me and my husband going crazy! So what happens at the medical clearance appointment? Mines is set for September 13,2012 should I call to set up my surgeon appointment now or wait til after the medical clearence first? How long after the medical clearance does it take to actully get thre surgery? Im starting to antsy! im nervous, and scared Does the lapband surgery hurt? does it take a long time? How is recovery? I have a million and one question and i am drawing a blink Any advise or knowledge about the lapband will be greatly appreciated

Thanks for the tips! I will try some of these things to see if they could help me I'm trying to lose 15 to 20 lbs by september 13

Thanks for responding I am going to start a new regimen where I eat at scheduled times and add exercise into my daily routines. I am taking all of the recommended vitamins and supplements required after surgey too get use to them, and I use the unjury protein shakes three times a week my nutritionist told me not to do them eeryday so I dont burn out on them before surgery. I also just got a new food log so hopefully I will start making changes for the better. Unjuy protein shake mix is really good with V8 fusion drinks with ice added perfect for the summer time.

For over the last past six months, I have been trying new things to enhance weight loss to no avail,the the only thing I have accomplished is gaining weight. its so hard to find someone that will say hey eat this food, this amount this time, this is what I tried and it works etc!.......Can anyone help all of us pre-surgery people trying to prepare for surgery please.

congrats!
