Thanks all :-)

Ok question for all you lovely people out there in band land . I've been told to only eat when I'm hungry and not to skip meals but what if I'm not hungry do I make my self eat ?

I'm hearing u loud and clear on this one I have a massive sweet tooth but have managed to get a handle on it mostly . My danger period is when I get home from work 4-5 so wat I do now instead of sitting on the couch and grabbing chocolate is taking my dog for a walk removes the hole craving . After dinner I will have a peppermint tea and brush my teeth this all so removed the need for sweets I still find my self opening the fridge but it won't help as I do not keep any off my sweet treats in the house I just don't buy them any more . Sending u strength to resist the sugar monster

Good luck

I think I will get myself some new earrings :-) when I drop below 100 my second fill is next Friday would love to be under by then :-)

Hi all just would like to know if any one experiences band tightening after exercise ? I have been going for nice long walk and then for 1-2 days after have pain in my band and find it a little hard yo get down any thing but liquids . My band is fine other wise I want to start doing more intense work outs or should I wait I'm 7 .6 weeks post op . If I only do 30-40 min walks I'm fine but the hour+ walks and its liquids for 1-2 days .

Ok a bit if good news bad news for me altho I'm losing weight my husband is stacking it on :-( it's my fault I still cook to much food and he all ways goes back for seconds or finishes my left overs or he adds bread to his plate 2-4 slices . How can I tell him his eating to much when he never complained about my weight .

Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk

You can do it the time will pass just measure out your food . I find if I exercise to much my band is very tight and can't get anything down for a few days so I've kept the exercise to long walks for now . Hood luck and you can do this :-)

What has been trying to come? your menstrual cycle?

Has it always been irregular? It could be that your body is still shocked from the anesthesia

Yep was trying to find a nice way to say it lol .most of the time within a day or two . Had nun of the regular signs of it starting like sore breasts . Will give it a few day and go to the doc

Oh and very hungry craving sugar

Hi girls this is my first time of the month with my band . Well they have been trying to come for 4 days :-( been just spotting has anyone else had this ?

Wasn't bad had 2cc in my band from op and she put in 2cc more :-)

I'm a little worried I know I need it as I'm eating a little more and more often but as its my first not to sure what to expect .

Had my second fill a month ago. Lost 3 lbs but nothing more all month! Just got over a stomach virus this week. Violently vomiting!! For 24rs im doing more Water than ever. Im am doing 1200 calories per day. Thanks to my fitness pal. Still no weight loss! I canceled my 3rd fill this week due to the fact i am terrified to look like a failure. I am determined to lose more before I see my doc. He intimidates me sooo much. I feel soo low! Even with a stomach flu i didn't lose!

Hang in there get the tape measure out and see how you go you may have lost cms rather then weight . See how your cloths feel bet there feeling looser :-)
