  1. Hello everyone I'm back with the same problem, does anyone have their left side of the stomach bigger than the right at times I can feel like this big lump on my left side
  2. No mine is more in the band area than in the port area it happens at least twice a week at times I think it may be the way I sleep. I like sleeping only stomach or on my side
  3. Noticed every now and then my stomach gets swollen like at the band area is this normal it also hurts very slightly. I have been banded for 5 1/2 months down 48 pounds. If anyone has had the same problem please inform. Thanks
  4. Thanks for the advice as long as I can find something that can make my hair stronger and grow again that will be awesome
  5. Will look for it tomorrow
  6. I am 4 months into my lap and lost 42 pounds so far, I am loving my weightless only thing I haven't liked is the amount of hair-loss I have been having. Is there anyone having the same problem what can I do. Anyone please help

  8. How do you know if your port flipped. As for me I'm a stomach sleeper but I haven't been able to sleep on my stomach since my surgery which is about 3 weeks tomorrow I also have a hard time sleeping sideways and I hate sleeping upside up. Sleeping has been crucial for me.

  10. I have been taking EAS as my Protein shake it has 17 grams of protein this is what my nutritionist recommend. They told me to get the carb control one, I drink the strawberry and rich dark chocolate. At first they wouldn't pass, after two days there pretty good.
  11. Awesome I'm a size 22 and I would be happy being a size 14. Just to able to go to a regular size section and get some clothes not having to go to the women's section (plus size)
  12. Wow I was kind scared that I had lost too much weight in two weeks. I lost 21 pounds as of yesterday. I'm glad I found this app. It's great reading all this info.
