  1. I got banded 09/07/07. I never even asked what size band I had until about 3 months after surgery. I ask the doctor and was informed I had a 10cc band. I never asked how much I had in my band. About 3 weeks ago I had a fill. It was to tight so back to the doctor to have some removed. That is when I found out I had 8cc in a 10 cc band. Now I have 7 but I know know that 8cc is to much and 7cc is to little. I going in 3 weeks so I will ask for .2cc and go from there.

MY doctors said I'm doing great but sometimes I wonder. I asked the doctor what they expected me to loss and he told me altogether 191 lb that would make me 113. MY granddaugther had a fit. she said don't they know you are 57 and had 3 kids and I would weight less than her and she wears a 3. I don't think they had size 3 when I was young

  7. I have been on 10 cruises over the last 18 years. I have found with the last 3 cruises we have taken it has been less formal. A nice pant suit or dress would be fine. Hope you enjoy Alaska. I was one of my best cruises I have even taken. I told my husband I would like to do it again.
  8. I have had diabetes type 2 for 29 years. I was on 3 pills a day. since I had the surgery in Sept I only take 1 pill a day. As far as I'm concerned this is the best hing I ever did. I have already loss 53 lbs. Still have ot watch what I eat but half the time when I do eat after about 5 or 6 bites I'm full.:biggrin:
  9. It has been show going. 5 weeks after surgery I ended up back in the hospital because my incision opened up. I took 6 weeks for that to heal. Had my first fill in late November, second in January and third last week. I have also had the flu and bronchitis. The flu shot did not work this year. Because of being sick I have not been able to exercise as much as I would have liked to. Hopeful with the weather changing so will my health. Even with all my health problem I have been able to lose 52 lbs:thumbup:
  10. Right after I had my surgery everytime I ate I would burp. Now 6 months out I burps a couple times a week . It drives my husband nuts.
  11. I had no pro-op diet. Had surgery in Sept . Loss 42 lbs so far. Am very happy with the results.
  12. <p>Had my first fil 1/28/07. Only 3 cc for now. Feel great loss 39 lbs. Doctor think I'm doing great. </p>
  13. My large incision Started opening up 5 weeks after surgery while I was on vacation in Branson MO. I went to the hospital there . THey had no clue about lapband surgery but a bandage on it and gave me some bandage so I could change it because of being on vacation.and gave me some antibotic. The next day we flyed home and went straight to the hospital. Within a hour they admited me. I stayed for 3 day on antibotic. When I was sent home I had to change the dressing 3 times a day with a wet dressing and then a dry one for 3 week until it almost healed. I'm doing very well now but it is still not healed all the way and the doctor told me I had to heal before I can have my first fill. Hopeful I get it in 2 weeks.
