I have been at a plateau for 2 months. Not happy about it! -
how long did it take you from first approaching doctor to surgery?
hollyelbert replied to aviva1979's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Mine took 6 months total. From seminar to surgery. I live rural. Our support group lets me Skype in. Which is awesome! I also use blogging and Internet for support. Just remember when you get online a lot if people follow different rules....have to be careful with online advise.... -
Did You Have Trouble Finding Your Greenzone ?
hollyelbert replied to Linze's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have 8.5cc in my 14cc band. I'm starting to feel restriction and fullness for the first time. Hoping it lasts for me! -
I did this program and its best to do 3 times a week and skip a day in between. Your body recovers and gets stronger on your days off!

So Afraid On Not Being Approved
hollyelbert replied to Pana'sNewStart's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I did not have any other health conditions and I was approved. I don't have united health though. My approval process took 6 months. -
I can eat normal after a fill. No restrictions.

How Is The Lap Bank
hollyelbert replied to ccbaxter's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
The band helps you feel full with smaller portions. You have to choose healthy food and you have to exercise. When you follow the rules the band does its job! I have lost 58 lbs in 4 months. -
Omg!

I am 4 months post op and have never been stuck. Eat slow and chew good!
-
I went to my seminar in jan. didn't have surgery until June....6 months for me! Good luck with everything!

I have also been getting this since being banded. I'm sure it's acid reflux, I am going to talk to my doctor about it at my next appointment. I get it mainly after eating fruit.

Sharp Pains After My First Fill...
hollyelbert posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Okay guys, I had my first fill a week and a half ago, this was 6 weeks post op. Ever since then I have been having sharp pains over my port area when I stand up or twist. Called my doctors office and they reassured me I was fine as long as it wasn't red, warm, or running a fever...which I am not. Is this just scar tissue irritated? Anyone else experienced this? Please tell me this goes away... -
