    Need Fill Dr. in Southern CA

    Hi I went to a center in apple valley, ca a few years ago I found their number but now have lost it. Can you give me a list of places to get a fill. Thank you Cindylou1972
  2. I was banded August 25, 2010. I have had few issues with the band. My health issues are now taken care of (gall bladder surgery in October 2012). After 18 months of fighting with three drs. that kept telling me it was my band. I stood firm and did not listen to them but my stomach pain continued. After lots of tests, of which I am glad came out great, we found out in August 2012 from an urgent care dr. that it was my gall bladder. While all this was happening I gained back 10 lbs of the original 50 that I lost. I am now cleared to start exercising and I found this forum and joined today. Looks like there are alot of great help here. As I am going to reach out to them, you should do the same we can get help together. This forum is what I am going to learn from to use my band tool to the best of my ability. I am glad I was banded and have cut way back on my food intake because of it. I had my first fill 6 weeks after surgery and have had three before my problem started and just had another last month after I was cleared by my dr. Exercising has been a bad word for me but after reading stories it will become my friend.

    the 5 day pouch test

    I will check out the protein drinks. I have been doing the stationary bike for a half hour. My exercising was nothing until my dr. cleared me back in November, and then the holidays came. Now I am wanting to get down to focusing on me and my lap band tool. Five day plan here I come!!!!

    the 5 day pouch test

    I have been banded for 2 yrs. I gained back 10 lbs of the 50 I lost, I was having stomach problems and the drs. could not figure out what the problem was and were not happy with the lap band so they were deciding that was the problem. I was not happy with that. I knew it was not the problem, one night it was so bad my husband took me to urgent care and there the dr. pin pointed the problem to my gall bladder. Went to see a gastric dr and sure enought it was that and had it taken out in October. I have not been able to lose again so I went and had a fill last month. Does the 5 day plan work? If so I will try it to get going. Any other ideas. I am starting to ride a stationary bike for about a half hour each day.
