I was doing great right after my fill, but it was

a few months later I started having like vomiting

episodes sonn after having any kinds of meat or chicken. All of my foods are steamed cook..

I am not able to eat fresh salads and if I have couple of bites, I am in the bathroom vomiting.

I will be seeing my doctor and see what we can do about it.

The purging has been happening

more if I chew meat or chicken and now steam fish too! I not able to handle any kinds of fruited or begs. Not unless I purée them.

As many of us who are careful and chew chew all

the time!!!

Hello!

I am so glad to know that I am not the only one!

I am at 11cc and I have been experiencing these

exact symptoms.

How are you doing so far and has there been

any changes to the good?

Let me know!

This is very good info thank you for sharing.

Each fill is totally different from the previous

fill. From my own experience. For some a fill can be 2-3

which is workable for others a fill goes higher which is

Working for them.

For me I had to go up to 10 to11 cc and this working for me!

So each person is different.

I currently live in Juneau Alaska.

I am from Honolulu.

Thank you for replying!

Hi

Just take your time when it comes to eating. Just chew slowly

And don't do what I did which I ate alittle but too fast like forgetting

I need to take my time.

I am at 11cc and I have been getting more results than ever

before. I also have been making Soups, soft foods

For a long while.

The big part is to measure small amounts or portions

and I have notice results already .

I do seriously track how much I eat and what u eat

Through this food tracker. That you can down load

onto your smartphone or computer.

Have a great day!

Usually after the fill, my experience has been similar to yours. I had to measure the amount of food intake. But in my case if I felt hungry after two to three weeks it was an indicator that I needed another fill. Just depends how your body is going to react after each fill.

We have different reactions from our own fills. I am glad that have a dr that is willing to work with you which is very important.

Hang in there, I know what you are going through just takes time to get use to the fill and each fill will always be different while you are slowly losing the weight.

Anissa,

We are with you!

I had my Gall Bladder taken out back in 1980 so I did not have to go through the procedure before surgery.

I have not had any problems with my lap-band thus far!

Yep, been there and done that with all the research before my surgery. I know what you are going through. Its normal feelings of what you are going through. Just remember to not push yourself after the surgery, Being with other people in a support group has a lot of advantages, you will understand the process from other people's experiences in their post surgery.

I am very happy in my lap-band since Sept 3rd 2010, I am very pleased with my lap-band choice over the RNY Gastric Bypass which I almost had.

Let us know how you are doing after your surgery!

We all lose or gain at our own pace. We are all different, but we share a common goal that is

wanting to lose the weight. I know it is easier said and done, I have had lots of struggles of working

towards losing my weight. I don't think about goals or how much I plan to lose because I really don't know yet!

All I can do is be patient with myself and stay on the path and having wonderful friends and family that support me in losing the weight. They have witness what I have been going through for so many years. It's not fun losing the weight and I don't have fantasy of what I will look like once I do obtain the weight loss!

There are so many times I could have a magic wand to help me lose the weight! LOL

Hang in there and be patient it just takes time!

Hang in there, once you know what you want..more power to you!

Wendell this is good info. I am at 11 cc started yesterday. Each time or each fill I fell like a newbie.

I am losing my clothes size slowly and I have to be patient with Myself after each fill.

I am seeking people who are like Me at this fill

stage. Thank you again for the info!

I am looking for people who are at 10 or 11 cc and you have encountered after the fill.

Need support ideas what it was like for you!

I had my surgery almost two years ago and where I live there are no support group meetings.

People who have had them did not have their surgery here in town. I have had a tough time

just finding anyone who have similar issues and able to confide with people who are in the same boat as I am.

I just had my 11cc lap band fill and so slow of losing the weight it has been over almost two years.

I body does not create enough body heat to burn off the calories so I have to work twice as hard.

I do have support from my husband, bless his heart he tries to understand what I am going through.

But it is not enough for me to lose the weight. He has been the only one there for me and I know that he is frustrated as I am of losing the weight.
