Keeping you in my thoughts & prayers Donna! Just think before long you can really enjoy band and feel well doing it. Keep us posted!

Never heard of this either, but I have heard ppl say when they got a total unfill b/c of surgery or problems, their bands were never the same. I wouldn't let him force you into an unfill, by using blackmail. Ask him for info from LB manufacturer stating such. Keep us posted!

I'm with Floridays! Plus I was told to drink fruit juice occasionally and to mix it 50/50 with water b/c of sugar content. I choose not to drink fruit juice at all and sticking with water.

Sorry about that, thoughts & prayers for quick recovery! I just started a thread yesterday to remind everyone about getting a flu shot. Most insurance co.pay for it. Get Well!

Cool dude! Congratulations! Thanks for sharing!

Congratulations on getting your healthy self back! Yes, wish I did this years ago, but unfortunately my insurance didn't pay for it until recently. But better late than never! Best wishes to a successful future!

I always bought Lane Bryant bras. They really last and hold up well, no pun intended. Went to get just one Thursday and they no longer make my favorite bra in anything below a 40, so I went to Target and bought a cheap one.

Oh I'm so sorry to hear that! How long have you had your band? You will continue to be in my T&P, and thank you for keeping us posted! We'll be waiting for additional up dates.

Thoughts & prayers

DO NOT WAIT HERE FOR MORE RESPONSES, PLEASE!

Yes, what Patty said, call now, or go now!!!

I'd say def either demand at heart to heart with Dr or find a new Dr. 7mths no fill and gaining weight, really? I'm 6wks out have lost 36lbs and my Dr said" its all you, band isn't restricting yet". I got a 3cc fill and appt in 6wks for another. I would be totally po'd if I was you too! Don't give up on the band, give up on your Dr. I wish you the best!

Welcome to "Bandster Hell"! That time between surgery and having enough fill to reach the green zone. The time you have to fight with everything you have to stick to LB eating rules. Do you really want to lose weight? Then you can do this! I know I do and I will! Best wishes!

You just had major surgery. It takes 6wks to heal completely. I remember feeling so great, going out running errands and then feel like hitting a brick wall, totally exhausted.Nap time! LOL Try not to compare yourself to anyone else. We are all individuals and will experience things at our own pace, be it healing or weight loss. I'm older so I know younger ppl will heal faster. Congratulations & Best Wishes!

Get your Flu shot! The husband of my hubs secretary died from the flu at the age of 47. Thank you!

Me too!

Being I'm older, I enjoy the yoga. It's like getting control of my body & mind!

Great NSV Time! I won't have to buy clothes for awhile. I have all sizes in my own closet.lol I did go to Lane Bryant's the other day to get one new bra, yes lose in the boobs first, I always get my bras there. Surprise, surprise my fave bra no longer comes in sizes under 40. I had to walk out from LB b/c couldn't find one small enough. I walked out smiling! Keep up the great job you're doing GF! So proud of you!

I hate that little guy that says "you're Obese".LOL It's like, no joke Sherlock!
