    Im Back

    I w as banded in 2007 and met my goal of 100 Lbs lost I thought I did wonderful well that came to a end when my daughter told me she was preg. and that I needed to quit smoking so I did and gained 25 lbs. Just went for a fill the dr. didnt put much in hoping I lose the weight before summer went from a sz 20 to a 12 which was my goal and now I am back to a 16. here is a word of advice dont get rid of all of your fat close just put them in storage or you will be like me having to go out and buy them all over again I have learned my leason I will be putting the larger ones in storage and hopfully never to be in my house again.
  2. We had Our Lapband done in Mexico and had a Dr. here in Chicago that did our fills.Well he wont do it amymore so I am asking does anyone know of a Dr. that would do fills on People who had the surgery in Mexico here in Chicago area?

    Green Shirt Picture

    I so agree with everything u said. I am 52 and retired. I was banded about 3 yrs. ago. This yr. has been amazing for me. I did the Avon Breast Cancer Walk (me can't believe it). My Cousin and Daughter wanted to do the walk and I said No there is no way I can walk 40 miles. But my daughter kept on me saying that I could that all I needed to do was try. well I didnt do the whole 40 but I did do 26 miles AMAZING. I LOVE my life wish I would have done it sooner.

    Hot & Cold

    I was banded 3 1/2 yrs. ago and I am always cold. I spoke to my Dr. about this and she said that I have lost all of my insulation (fat). But let me tell you I wouldnt change a thing this is my only complaint. Just wish I would have done it sooner. Good Luck to the both of you

    Live Alone

    I was fine even went to the mall the very next day shopping. Just be careful about lifting and carrying anything heavy. Good Luck

    COLD hands, cold feet, cold nose???

    me too I am so cold that I walk around the house in a blanket or robe and i use to hate to wear socks now I wear heavy socks and slipper. I just think that our bodies need to adjust to have less fat (a good thing) a insulation.

I have a question thou if I continue to loss weight ( Loss 47lbs) will this band open or do I have to go and take some out?
