    Stomach Aches

    I was banded 15AUG and I notice every month I have problem with gas and bloating and it really gets painful My Dr said sometime your body can stop tolerating certian foods(milk etc) so pay attention to what you are eating but I started a gummy probiotic and gummy fiber and all has been well so far it hasn't returned I am so glad because it was really painful and it felt like my lower abdomen was infammed

    Something In Throat

    I do that too I am starving by the time I eat and then I eat way too fast I am trying so hard to slow down but I think being in the military you learn to eat so fast so then its hard to break the habit I never knew I ate as fast as I do....a work in progress:)

    Question???

    mine did
  12. today is my birthday I had planned for a birthday gift to myself of being in "onderland" but I fell 4lbs short but I am so proud of how far I have come and I am so excited about my future. There has been so much change externally and internally. I was always the one that kind of melted into the atmosphere watching and waiting but now I am a social butterfly. I get compliments daily(especially the hub) and it makes me want to do more each day. I am loving life and I'm making my...

  13. I am back on track today feeling pretty good and focused on my goal

  14. August is upon let's hear from everyone getting banded August ROLL CALL...15AUG who else is out there?
  15. I was told that lapband patients tend to get more stomach viruses than non lapband patients. bacteria and viruses can stay in our stomaches longer(trapped by the band) multiplying so we have the syptoms longer by average. Has anyone heard this or is this a myth? since you have had the lpaband do you have more stomach viruses or issues( bloating, diarrhea, etc) than you use too? tell me what you think

    Stomach Issues

    I Think My Band Is Too Tight....

    it could be the swelling from the adjustment When i received my fill I was fine but on the 2nd day I was really tight( could still drink liquids) but my DR warned me that I would swell he said the 2nd day after it seems to be the most swelling but as long as I can drink I can go on liquids unitl the swelling goes down if you can't tolerate liquids make sure to go in to see your DR Good Luck
  22. Since my 1st fill I am not longer on bread. I tried all types even toasted . My band doesn't approve oh well today is the lowest I've weighed since 2006 It is worth the sacrifice:)

    How Fast Is The Weightloss?

    I am averaging between 2-3lbs a week now and I am 6wk post op I think for some it is harder than it has been for me so far my appetite hasn't returned yet since surgery so it's been easy to stay on track everyone is different so it's hard to say what will happen to you

  25. I was that way too and it started again when I received my 1st fill it gets better
