  1. I spoke to the nurse that sees me she said is too early to think about a revision:( I'll keep waiting, I'm eating a lot less but I'm still not losing weight
  2. I wonder if any of you still check this post just in case, I'm also in Miami I would love to know how are you guys doing since your surgery was in 2012. I was banded on 6/2014 still learning and adjusting....
  3. Thank you for replying I guess I have to work in patience lol, good luck to and my best wishes
  4. Can we have home made chicken soup?? I don't much of the vegetables I'm suffering eating just chicken half an avocado or beans with the chicken I'm 3 months post op
  5. cheese I don't want to think I have let 5, 10 years pass before I can have a revision...my band is not agreeing with me
  6. @@Alfie, I have a question, so how long did you had the band? I'm also interested in having my band remove but I'm afraid to be denied but it is not agreeing with me thanks so much
  7. Hi everyone! I know this must on case by case situation but, this is my question to have a revision I have to wait years? or how miserable should I be before I bring this up with my doctor, I was banded on 8/6/14 I know a lot of time haven't past but I just feel this is not working... no restriction, vomiting, night sweats, and many more discomfort. thanks,

  9. I was banded 8/6/14 I'm going for my 3rd fill 11/20/14, I haven't had much restriction and for the most part I just waiting for the band to the magic ( I know it doesn't work like) but I wonder when will I feel at least a bit of the restriction I read many have. I have the 10 cc band and its fill to 3.5 cc I believe, anyway any one from Miami Florida that wants to mentor me (more like hammer in my head how I should eat ) ....good luck everyone
  10. It's cool you're losing i supposedly have 4cc and I haven't lose much at all, nov 20 I'll have my second fill and according to the nurse it's only going to be a .5cc, I have heard that you start losing when you have at least more than 7cc so I have quite a few more visits to do..
  11. Hi roxx my surgery was 8/6/14 I would love to know how you're doing, my weight was 194lbs now is being at 184lbs for two weeks the scale hasn't move, are you losing more?

  17. I'm 5'4 my weight is 185 and my goal is 135lbs can't wait I think is doable but if I look scrawny or sick I'll probably raise up the pounds . I had my surgery 8/6/14 at 194lbs
  18. I used to feel the same I can't relate to most people on wls site because besides been much older they have a lot of diseases and have much more weight to lose, I'm 34 I was banded 8/6/14 Pre op weight 194 I have only lose 11lbs since then, my second fill will be 10/23 I'm still super hungry can't wait to reach my green zone... I have not experienced any pain when it comes to food I can eat almost everything although I'm trying to make smart choices of course to lose but its really hard I wish I would've done the sleeve instead anyway good luck everyone:)
