Is it the flu or is it my band?
I have a question, I had a fill today, they put 5cc's in a 10cc band, I left and I could not drink my coffee which is not a good thing. I went right back and he took half out, I could feel the pressure being released it was great. I have had an acidy stomach ever since, I cannot eat and it hurts in my back. Just wondering if anyone out there has any thoughts on this.

Hey everyone I have a question. I finally received a fill well actually 2 now I think I have 3.5CC's I can feel it but I am wondering if you experinced banders could tell me how much weight is good in a month? I have lost about 12 pounds, and I am currently going to the gym and doing the treadmill daily, I dont know if that is a good loss or not, I almost feel discouraged because my caloric intake is very small compared to what it was before I really cannot eat much less without passing out. Please HELP MEEEEEEEEEEEEE! LOL! Sherri

How are my Feb Double Vs doing?
Hey Bandsters! I had a fill one week and one day ago, I have lost 10 pounds, do you think that is 2 much? I am not sure if I am eating enough, this morning I had a muffin which I was surprised went down and did not come back up, at lunch I had a small whole wheat pita very thin with a spoonful of tuna on it. For supper I had about 6 green Beans, 3 ounces of salmon which most of it came back up. Do you think I should be eating more? I am drinking Water and I dont feel bad but I am worried that it might not be enough. The fill was my first and it was 2.5 cc's

Lap Band Fills / Adjustment Info
Hello Banders I have a question, I was banned in Alberta Canada and have moved to Ontario, Canada. My doctor tried to fill my band yesturday but I dont think he had the proper needle, so I am not sure it actually worked. I was only filled once before we were moved by the military, how can I find out what size of an needle actually works? Sherri

Can you feel a band slip?
I dont think thats what you are feeling, you are going to have alot of different feelings, dont forget you are healing, if you are really concerned give your doc a call. Cheers Sherri

WHAT FOODS GETS STUCK or give you problems?
meat is a hard one, fish is good for me and I have been able to eat steak which is kind of weird, many of my friends that have had the surgery told me that I would not be able to eat it. It all depends I guess, some days are different then others.
