    Weight Gain????? Why???

    My 4th to 5th week i didn't lose weight. I was eating suckers and candy. It actually makes up the difference. Your sugar level needs to ne in the 80s to lose. Even if your over weight and only eating suckers your body holds on to the fat. A skinny person eating suckers probably can eat suckers and still have low sugar because their body burns different.

  6. I bought a skin, hair and nails supplement yesterday. Scared to take it because of warnings to see doc before you start it and possible allergic reactions. Is this label normal for all biotin replacement? Has anyone had issues?

    Post Op Burps/heart Burn

    You are healing. Could be gas. As for heart burn, don't lay down right after eating or drinking

    Cant Stop Eating Choc

    When lapband does not work for someone its because they eat around the band. That is what you are training yourself to do and what i started doing 4 wks post op. Put the candy away.. Give it away..trash it.. I did and am on track, you can do it
  15. My doc said the reason they do pre op diets is so your liver will shrink and is easy to lift during robotic surgery. Our stomachs are behind the liver and the liver must be lifted in the air to do the surgery. He said rapid weight loss will cause the liver to shrink making the surgery easier
  16. My bmi was 38. I had no pre op diet either. I will warn you at 3 wks i could eat very little. At 4 wks i could eat a cow. The stomach inside the band is still swollen at 3 wks. One it goes down your open and feels no different than before surgery. This is the time some gain weight. After your first fill you get some but not much restriction. After my second fill i am almost at my post op feeling state. We are all different , Im just saying how its been for me

    When i stop weighting i cheat. Not all of us are the same. Some need daily support on the scale
  18. I am shocked at what your dietician has said. You are not supposed to eat until full, if you do that you are starting a bad pattern. Feeling full often will lead to throwing up. 3 wks post op is a critical time not to over eat. You need to heal.

    At A Stand Still. Help!!!

    I was at a stand still at 4-6 wks too. I added Mfp on my phone, got a second fill, and Im off and losing again. My fitness pal is so good. I was doing stuff i shouldn't and not eating stuff i can!
