Sooo, today I had my second fill. I found out I gained 3 lbs ???ª???ª. The holidays are hard. My doctor said over all I'm doing great. She said its normal to gain a pound or two. How many fills does it take to get that "sweet spot"??? I'm curious? Also, I need new food recipes, I'm getting tired of the same old same old..... Happy New Year!!!

My first fill anyone have issues
Tiffany3280 replied to amandaakadeda's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Are you chewing your food? I just had my first fill the beginning of December and I notice if I don't chew it will get stuck. I know it's hard to go from maybe chewing your food 3-4 times to 10-20. Are you sipping your drinks? If you still have this problem contact your doctor. And they will be able to assist you. Hope this helps... Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk -
Just a question about your goals
Tiffany3280 replied to naturallyjai's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My goal is 200 lbs.... I've already lost 51lbs, I have my second fill in a week. I started at 396.... I'm 5"8, I feel being 180 wouldn't look right. I know I have a long way to go but I can do it. So far the weight is falling off, can't wait til I hit my sweet spot.... Good luck to!!! Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk -

Post-op Sex??
Tiffany3280 replied to LadyLeigh2012's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My doctor said whenever I felt up to it... I waited all of five days after surgery.... And now that I'm two months since surgery, OMG, sex has gotten sooooo much better!!!! I don't think I could wait 3-6 weeks... Stick to normal positions ( doggy style is your friend) don't try any of the Karma Sutra or any from Cosmopolitan Magazine and you should be fine Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk -
Was banded October 18, I know this is the holiday season and all. Is it safe to have a drink?? I'm not sure how this will work with my new tummy. The food part I'm doing ok with, I did have one boneless wing and mozzarella stick, I took the breading off, wasn't sure if it would've gotten stuck?? Can we drink with the lap band if so, what can we have??? Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk

It's official it has been one month since my surgery, October 18, 2012!!!! I go for my first fill on November 28, I'm a little scared and anxious at the same time.... I have not been on a scale since I went in for a follow up a week after my surgery. Should I be concerned if I've gained weight, I feel as though I have lost a few more pounds.... I still have some discomfort where my port is... Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk

One Month Since My Surgery
Tiffany3280 replied to Tiffany3280's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I really didn't have any restrictions, oddly I didn't start to feel restriction til the last few days. I can really tell I have a fill now. I was filled 12/6, I can only eat maybe 15-25 bites. Please remember to chew chew. I'm averaging 2.5-3 lbs a week of losing weight. I ate over 3 hours ago and I'm still full. And remember 5-8 glasses of Water. Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk
