  1. I've felt the needle come out as well.. honestly it's a little uncomfortable. I thought it was normal? After a fill I'm usually sore for a couple of days.
  2. I dont go back till September 6th.. in the meantime I've really upd my water intake but I'm still hungry!
  3. Just a hair more and i think I'll be there!! What did you do to cure your hunger? I can't get full at all!!
  4. I'll be paying 150 for each fill that includes the office visit, fill, x-ray etc.. if i just go in for a check up it's going to cost me 125!! Insurance said i could maybe get around it some how if it wasn't billed as "bariatric".. anyone else have the same issue?
  5. I had a fill about 3 wks ago.. thought i hit my green zone.. but i feel as if it faded away!! I feel hungry all the time!
  6. It took 6 months to get me approved with blue cross! Be persistent and call everyday! ! Don't give up!
  7. Switched insurance companies, new one doesent cover lap band period! I was just wondering how much you guys pay for a fill if self pay?
  8. I was wondering if taken would it hurt the band? As far as erosion?
  9. I wish i could go in every 2 wks? How long after a fill will you feel the affects?
  10. Has anyone taken appetite suppressants while being banded?
  11. I have to drink almost 2 cups of coffee in the morning so I'll be able to have lunch! Other than that i feel great! Think i may have found my spot!
  12. I workout in the evening and i have to take small sips of water .. just curious if anyone else was experiencing the same thing..
  13. Does anyone else feel a little tight in the evening? I am both am and evening middle of day not so much.
