Hi, I don’t drink beer but have found that my ordinary drink of prosecco is a no no. I tend to have a spirit with a diet mixer and normally leave it a few minutes to go flat to consume. Everyone is different though. Hope this helped

Hi, extra portions of what I normally eat plus had a slice of bread last night.

I'm currently at 4.3cc and have no restriction. I can eat and eat and eat. Hoping someone else has had this and it's not just me.

Having an adjustment Friday and hope that it makes some improvement.

Currently feeling discouraged and disheartened

@ceow thank you. Just got to wait and see I suppose.

@ ceow Thank you for your response. I've since ordered some Hair growth Vitamins. Hoping it helps.

Hi

Just wondering is anyone has experienced Hair loss since having the lap band fitted.

I'm now 4 months post op and have noticed my hair thinning. Wondered if anyone had experienced this?

Hi @nannynoonoo

Just came across your post. Sorry for the late reply.

I remember the first few weeks post op I felt the same. All I can say is it does get better. I have a band so I'm sure my recovery would be different. Happy to be a buddy with you.

@@Belle4321 realised after that didn't tag you not very good at this clearly haha

I was banded oct 2016.

So far 52 pounds down so very happy about that.

Just looking for someone to share experiences, exercise, food choices etc.

Look forward to hearing from someone.

I'm trying to get as much Protein in my diet as possible. I have bought a Keto diet/recipe book so hoping that will give me more tips thanks again!

Hi guys just looking for some advice.

Does anyone follow a specific diet since having band fitted?

Or do you just eat healthier but normal foods?

Thanks

Thank you for all the advice/information.

I'm contacting my nurse today to see about organising a second adjustment.

So I'm 5 days after my first fill.

Not feeling much if any restriction. Is this normal?

I'm finding I'm snacking more and could easily eat bread without a struggle.

Advice needed if anyone has any please!

No problem it's nice to have someone to exchange progress with.

@RustiJacobs hope your first full went well! And thank you. Looking forward to the future. I'm intrigued to see whether it's a good idea or not.

So I'm now 6 weeks post op and am feeling fab! Just had first band fill, things are dropping off well! 48 pounds down!

I intend to start working out this week as am concerned out the loose skin side of things.

Considering trying a waist trainer to help tighten skin.

Concerned that this will effect the band or cause problems.

Any advice welcome.

New to this.
