  1. Thanks for your words of encouragement. Gosh This whole last year, foods that I used to devour such as cakes, cookies, candy which where my worst weekenesses did not bother me at all. I breezed through every day never even wanting any, well after I had some of my fill taken out, oh my Lord, all the old demons started showing up. I cannot wait until September 4th for my fill. I do appreciate you commenting. Good luck to you.
  2. Caroben here, well there was no doctor when I got my unfill. Just the attendants at the surgical center. I told them that I started having trouble getting food down. And when I say food it was liquids. I don't know if maybe I may have disturbed the area of my port or what. I had leaned over my bathtub cleaning it and the next couple of days I could not get anything down. So I thought I better go in a get some taken out. I had not had a "fill" since February so i could not understand why all of a sudden I could not eat. I still have around 25-30 lbs I would like to loose before I want to stop. This has still been the absolute most wonderful thing I have ever done. I have made an appointment to go and get a fill put back in. I did not have my whole fill taken out but it was enough that I could probably eat a bale of hay!!! It is making me quite nervous because I feel my old urges popping up. Thanks so much for responding to me.. Good luck.. :clap2:
  3. Well hello everyone. This is actually the first time I have gotten online here. I had my lapband May 11, 2006 with Dr. Felix Spiegel in Houston, Tx I have lost 120 lbs and just recently went in for my very first "unfill". I am not doing well with it at all. I thought for sure with my eating habits soooo different over the past year, that I would not have problems. But good grief, it is like I am a real food maniac. Have any of you ever experianced this yet? I do NOT want to undo all the wonderful good I have done this past year. Any comments would help me. thanks
