How many fills have you all had? I was banded July 23,08 and I've gained 5 pounds. :thumbdown: I've had 3 fills and I can still eat anything. I have no restriction at all. I have another fill scheduled April 22nd. I'm glad all of you have done well. I hope you all can give me some advice. I'm so discouraged.

I'm gonna try to make the October meeting. Hope to see you there. :crying:

I'm in Elizabethton. Dr. Hodge did my surgery July 27th and I go for my first fill tomorrow. My schedule is a little crazy at the moment but maybe we can become email buddies and support each other. My email is lisadental@yahoo.com. Be sure to put lapband in the subject line because I get a lot of junk mail. I look forward to hearing from you. :-)

Why did you lose your band? I'm terrified of losing mine.

I was banded on 7/24/08 and had a 10 day pre-op liquid diet. I've lost 15 lbs so far.

Zillyanne, how do you get that much protein with so little calories? Thanks

Oh my beachgal. I start my liquid diet Monday and I hope this doesn't happen to me. I'll never make it on my job. Good Luck!

Thanks Dtobe175ish for making the July list. It made me feel important. I'll be praying for you as you have your surgery.

Good luck to everyone in July. My surgery is the 24th at 10:00 a.m. For all of you being banded next week, Good Luck and let us know how you did. I'm so nervous about the pain after surgery. It's great knowing I have friends here who will follow my journey with me. You all are the best. :thumbs_up:

I hope you continue to do well. I'm getting nervous about being in pain after surgery. Thanks for sharing your experience.

I understand the being nervous jonesie. Lucky for me my insurance is paying a portion of the surgery. I'm still very scared and I go back and forth also. My surgery is July 24th. I have no stomach problems at all and I get scared when I read that some people throw up. I hope you will email me and keep me informed about your journey. Also, I would still love for someone to tell me how to get the tickler weight chart on my profile. :ohmy:

I love the weight loss ticklers but I don't know how to get them in my profile. Can anyone please help?

My surgery date is July 24th. I'm excited yet nervous. Good luck to everyone 8-).
