Not me. Now that I think out it, I have it more often

Thank you! Let us know how it goes

Thank you for sharing. If it's okay with you, can I add you to my prayers?

I go in next month to see if I need to get my meds adjusted. It's so discouraging sometimes

Congratulations on your pregnancy! Your health and the baby's health come first, and weight gain is part of the process. You really should look into getting your band unfilled. That is one of the wonderful things about the band, you can have a wonderful and normal pregnancy, and to help with the weight-loss, you can have you band filled again. Many Blessings! Nancy

I recently got a fill and am feeling great! Eating a lot less, making healthy food choices, and moving around a lot more, but not losing any weight. I think my thyroid meds need to be adjusted. Anyone else struggle with thyroid issues and weight-loss?

I went through something similar, it turned out my thyroid was out of whack

I love this App! My Dr was the one who suggested it. Love having left over calories

I was banded 2007 and lost 85 pounds, about 2 years later, I messed up and got something stuck. I had the saline from my band removed. A month later we also lost our health insurance. Fast forward 4 years later, I gained 22 pounds and would have gained more if I didn't have my band. We have health insurance again and had my first fill since 2009. I am on the losing end once again and I'm grateful to that little tool that is helping me slowly lose weight again. I have chosen to eat the right foods, move around more often, and use my band as a tool. Who knows, maybe in a few more years I will finally reach my goal

I have an appointment to see my Dr on Tuesday! Don't feel bad Mrs. Richards, you got this! I joined my fitness pal to help me keep track of my calories. Keep me updated on your progress

Hi Folks, Does anyone else have to get fills via an x-ray machine? I am having my first fill since 2009. My port did something funny with the weight loss and that is the only way the Dr can get to it. I am very excited because we have health insurance again, and I feel like a newbie! Can't wait!! Nancy

That's Great! I hope to be on the losing end soon

Thank you Missmonaaz! I had the lapband done many years ago, and due to not having health insurance, I haven't had a fill in years. I have gained 40 lbs of the amount I had lost. I had and have a long way to go. I go in for my first fill next week, in about 3 years and am excited about it. I wish you the very best, and who knows... this time around we might meet out goals!
