That's right we are all at our six month mark WOW how time flies. I am still loving :wub: my band hope everyone feels the same way !

I can feel it and mines at a slight tilt but my second fill went super smooth now that my surgeon profiled it's location. I like feeling my "secret weapon" but it does creep some people out.

Hang in there with that. I itched like crazy too but don't itch it I used a ice pack to soothe it. It will pass and you will love your band !

I hear on both comments. Feeling and looking good people noticing my hard work. :-) Try making kabobs I did chicken, shrimp and sausage ones they were a hit at the cook out that I went to and I didn't miss the BBQ feel.

Atkins shakes were on the list from my surgeon.....hmmmm

Day 1-3 are awful!!! Take naps lol and the rest of the time is a breeze. Hang in there and best of luck!

You are doing fabulous and I bet you have alot more pep in your step. I am finally noticing how much more I can accomplish with my 50+ weight loss.

Keep up the good work!! I am still hunger but I am in a calorie counting and exercise groove so I am ok . I had my second fill 6/27 so hopefully this will help take some hunger edge off.

Wow my 8 pocks then a X-ray feels like like small potatoes to your experience but you are absolutely right whatever fill experiences we have are to get us to the greater good of being in the green zone. My band still feels like a aid to my calorie counting and exercising. I hope getting to the green zone will feel great and take the hunger pressure away or lessen it.

Start with 30 min of exercise 5 days a week and when you start to see and feel the results you be up to 45 min etc etc. GOOOOD LUCK!!!!!!

8.4 lbs off that's great!!!!

I am starting this topic because when my first fill back in April didn't go smooth I searched and search this site for answers . My doctor was very assuring the next time would be smooth but I trust this community and all your experiences involving the band. I have since had my second fill June 27th and it went very smooth. But I was nervous going in hoping there wouldn't be drama like the last one.

Hang in there !!! Enjoy your 67 lbs off and your getaway!!!

YAY CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!
