    Eating too often

    I was banded Sept 07 and have lost 67 lbs. Which is great. At the start I followed every rule. I know I am getting to relaxed now. Any advise to get over the hump. I only have 30 lbs to go!

    Eating too often

    I had a fill last month and thought that would help but i am still stuck. I go back tomorrow for another fill.
  3. I have been banded since 09/07 with out any problems. However, about 2 1/2 weeks ago I got a cold that made me cough horribly. I coughed hard for 2 weeks. I am better now but I am sore around my port? Has this happened to anyone else?
  4. I have been banded since 09/07. My doctor doesn't seem to think mine is anything but just sore muscles around the port because of the coughing. I was told if your actual band slips the pain is horrible and you would know. I was worried i could have flipped my port.

    Thanks for the reply. Mine and your goal weight and date is the same. That is so cool. I know I have gotten lazy. Just got to get my head back on! Keep in touch!
  6. I was banded Sept 28, 07. I have 10cc band with 3cc now. I have had 3 fills, going for my 4th next week. It seems like my fills last about a month then it is gone. Is this normal?:confused2:

    Ryan's Steak House

    Just FYI Ryans Steak House does not honor the lapband card to eat off the Children menu. :wub:

    Ryan's Steak House

    I don't know how common it is everywhere. I was given 2 cards to keep with me. One that is an emergency type card that shows that I have had lapband. It is for doctors offices, pharmacy, etc. The other also explains I have had the surgery and request for you to be able to eat off the kids menu due to portion size. I have ate at alot of places and not had a problem with this until now. Longhorn Steakhouse, Ruby Tuesday, etc all have very good things on the kids menu. And the portion size is correct. However, they are for 12 and under. I was just disappointed that they refused.

    Am I stretching my pouch?

    I was banded in Sept 07, and got my 3rd fill yesterday. This is honestly the first real restrictions that I have felt. I don't think you have stretched. I think it is just early.

    Couch to 5K Anyone want to start with me ?

    Just fyi...I saw someone reply that they have experienced shin splints, I am not an expert but I have found thru trial and error that if I start out on the exercise bike for about 15 minutes prior to the treadmill or walking I do not have shin splint or calf pain.

    I have been kinda doing this without knowing what I was doing. I would love to participate.
  14. I just had my first fill yesterday at 2.5cc in a 10cc band. Of course I am on liquids right now. But doing fine. After reading I guess 2.5cc for the first fill was alot.
