    Leak in band

    Ok, the thing is that leaks are caused by improper needles used to fill your band or faulty ports or tubing. If that ER doctor didn't use a CURVED needle (Beveled Needle is the common name) then more than likely he did cause it. When you fill or unfill your port a special needle is needed to be used and you should look at it. If the needle does not have a curve in it then DO NOT let that doctor touch your port at all. I hope that your friend does better.

The votes are tracked by IP address and since each eletronic has a separate IP address then you are ok. Thank you again so much for caring and for trying to help me win my lap-band surgery. I will keep everyone posted!!!
  16. CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! I am so happy for you. You are so blessed and are about to start the next step on your Weight Loss Journey. I myself have not been banded YET I am trying to win a contest where if I get the most votes or 2nd most votes then I win a FREE lapband!! I would do anything to be in your shoes, because I know the feeling you must have right now. It is a life saving surgery and you will literally get your life back. I think that they should call it the LIFE BAND instead of Lapband cause it gives you back your life!!! But if you need to talk there is great support on here and I am here to help anyway that I can!!! Keep us updated!
  17. You can only vote 1 time from each computer, phone, tablet, I-pad, etc....The vote sre tracked by IP addresses and since each item has a different Ip address that is how the votes are counted. So if you are going to work tomorrow you can vote from that computer; or if you have multiple phones in your house you can votes 1 times from each of the phones. If you work where there are a lot of computers, then give the website to everyone you work with, or just take over their computer for a few minutes....hold it hostage...lol
  18. I sure hope that I win too Carolinagirl!! I want this so badly it is unreal. I just know that by having a Lap-band that I will finally be able to get my life back. I know that it won't be easy but I am in no way afraid of a challenge!! Thank you again for your Vote!!

My weight Loss journey has not been an easy road and in fact has been like a roller-coaster up down up down up up down down.....If I win the Lapband I know that it is not a majic pill that will fix everything. It is a tool that I know I will use to help me finally take over my obesity and help me conquer my obesity. The Lapband is a tool that will help me EARN my life back.

    Why are YOU Fat?

    What a soul searching question, Why am I fat? I could come up with many excuses but then I still know the truth. I am fat because in my life I have not made good choices for myself. As a mother I put my husband and children before my needs. Which means that I have neglected myself. But I am not blaming them at all because my obesity is my fault. I have so much knowledge that I freely share with people such as recipes where you use applesauce instead of oil, or splenda instead of sugar, or how to Fake Fry chicken without grease. When I really think of it, the bottom line is that I am fat because of my choices. I have not been banded yet (though I am trying to get banded). I am ready mentally, physically and emotinal for my weight loss journey to start. All of the diets, shakes, pills, or drops have always resulted in the same manner. I lose weight then gain it back. It is a yo-yo cycle of emotional let down from success and then failure. I have made a choice that is for me now. I have admitted that I have a problem. I am morbidly obese, not healthy, and being held back from living my life with my children and husband. I am ready to stop being on the sidelines and watching my life pass by me. I am ready to take charge of my life and my fat. I maybe fat for many reasons. But I will conquer my obesity. As long as I keep trying I will never fail. I will NEGU (Never Ever Give Up)
