  1. It may also be some rebound pain from where your port is sewn in. If so, as you heal inside it will settle down
  2.    Debbie3sons reacted to a post in a topic: Amount in band & guilt
  3. thanks for the input! I'm going next Wednesday to have another fill and in the meantime I am just working on eating more slowly and eating more protein!
  4. This may sound crazy but I had a band and plication on 12/30 with starting weight of 268 and I started getting fills in March. I had lost about 28 then. I am down to 227 and I have 6 1/2 cc in a 14 cc band. I still don't have a lot of restriction and my weight loss in the last month or so is none or very little, but for some reason I feel guilty like maybe I am just pigging out because I don't feel resistriction. I am eating between 1250-1350 calories a day and to this day I have NEVER had a problem of any kind! I am grateful for that. Is it nuts that in my mind I figure if I haven't hit my sweet spot by now I must be doing something wrong????? Do most people have more than 6 or 7 CC's in their bands???
  5. I had mine December 30th! Down 42 and started getting fills mid March. I am at 6 1/2 cc in a 13cc band and beginning ti speed up again. Love it! May be losing a little slower but have had zero problems and can eat small portions of absolutely anything
  6. I had my band/plication 6 months ago and I felt weak and kind of yuk for a week. I am down 42 lbs now and only started having fills 3 months ago. I am at 5cc in a 14cc band. I have NEVER been sick or stuck and I feel good! I'm off diabetes meds and my sleep machine. Life Is good! Hang in there friend! It will only get better. If you have any issues let me know!
  7. If you live in the Dallas Ft Worth area I will be happy to give you the name of my Doctor
