Tammy, Calm down, you're going to be okay. You just had a bad weekend. Have you had a fill yet? If you have, it sounds like you need a tighter fill. You shouldn't have been able to eat a 6 in. sub, much less a 12 in. I think you need a fill immediately. Call the doctor or his nurse and tell them about this. Also, try to gauge your amounts so you don't stretch the little stomach you have left. Let's think your hubby made the comment because he loves you and is concerned, not to be mean. One day you'll be slender and laugh at all of this.:scared: Pat

Nanster: I lost my desire for chocolate & sweets after the lapband. I was a chocoholic but now could care less. Maybe that happened with you since the Snicker no longer calls to you. Before the band that sucker would have called my name until I inhaled the whole thing regardless of how many ounces it was. Pat

Feb. Banders List Pat aka Happy2 Banded Feb. 28 Dr. Scott Steinberg-Atlanta Feb. 28/06-Wt. 288 April 4/06-Wt. 268 Loss to date-20 lbs. First Fill-April 10/06-Can't wait

Thanks for the support. I feel better knowing that I will lose more after the fill. My first fill is scheduled for April 10. That leaves only one week for me to be careful. I haven't gained any weight which is good. Pat

To: Gail CB Hi Gail, I was banded on Feb. 28 with very little pain. They gave me a pain pump that I hardly used at all. After the first night the pain was so little I only used pain medicine twice. I was going to exercise class in a week. Pat

To: Gail CB Hi

Susan, Thanks for the way you broke down your meals into protein and calories, etc. This is so helpful to me. I'm struggling to get all the protein I need. Happy2 aka Pat:confused:

Susan, Thanks f

Congratulations, Lianna!!! Keep up the good work. One day I hope to join you under the big 200. Happy2

Hi, I had the lapband on Feb. 28 and go for my first fill on April10. In the first 3 weeks I lost 20 lbs. This last week I haven't lost a pound even though I'm not eating more than 900 calories a day and am going to Curves daily. Has anyone else hit a plateau so early like this? happycomfortpsl
