I also have gained and need to lose at least 30 lbs. life happens huh .

Hi everyone, it’s been a good while since I have came to this site. I was banded in 2012 and yesterday I had some scopes done ( colonoscopy and EGD ) they had believed my band slipped. Went to the Lapband dr today and did a barium swallow test and an unfill . Thank God no slip. Guess I just let it heal and try again????

I need to make an appt asap. I have gained 20 lbs :-( . So frustrated with myself. But Im going to get back on track now.

I had the lap band placed in Sept. 2012. I lost 80 lbs. I am a stress eater and boy oh boy have I been eating. I gained some weight back and now I am ready to get back on track. Thanks for your time. #dissapointed

oh NO please stop taking Ambien....my mother use to take that for many years and as someone above mentioned cooking and not even remembering , well that was what my mom would do as well as lots of other strange things , sorry to say that my mom hung herself on March 24th 2011 . sure she had other medical problems but the ambien was a BIG factor to her suicide . you should look it up. scary stuff.

body fortress is all I have ever used....it is so yummy and I mix mine with soy milk

Hummm that might be what is going on with me. I had a protein shake at 6:30 am and by 8:30 I started to feel real shaky . Guess i will have that checked out .

Thank u all for the post and glad I am normal Lol

My shoulder pain was gas. Idk about anyone else .

I had a fill on Saturday and on Thursday I notice everything was having a hard time going down. called Dr. today and had half a cc removed. I do have Sjorgens and thought maybe It was just acting up. has this happened alot to other people where they have to unfill a week later??
