  1. Guys I hear you all, and I feel for you and know exactly whay you have/are going through. the root cause is yeast - candida albican, which is just bacterial rot, that causes all sorts including cancer. it breeds on sugar and toxins. I took all the toxins and sugar out my diet for about a year and it really helped the pain. low carb diet helped kill the candida for a while (approx 3 months), but during ketosis the body stays in 'acid' mode and after a while the candida started to grow again as an 'acid' environment can cause cancer and the rot to start again. the band and diet help because you are not eating so much, therefore less toxins and sugar, but people with a perfect BMI and get Fibro as their diet is full of sugar and toxins. toxins and sugar are in everything we eat nowadays, i find eating 'pure' food helps me, like organic eggs, orgainc fruit, organic nuts etc where as a ready meal is full of E numbers and additives etc etc - all toxins. I will stop yapping on; hope this helps. - take care x
  2. your welcome kiddo, remember the band does 30% and we have to do 70%, go girl go :-)):cool2:
  3. hi i was banded on the 24th of feb and my first fill was 4.5 ml and i really feel the difference, maybe sometimes it was too much, hope it works soon for you.
  4. hey, I never feel full, I think I have nerve damage that went with the gastric paralysis that happened 3 years ago along with the pancreatis, all fun. so i over eat then sit for hours with left shoulder pain, I know its just head hunger and I need to sort it. I was banded in feb 2008 and have only lost 5kg and wonder if i will ever lose the weight, so I do understand. All I can suggest for you is to never drink your calories, maybe that might help. best of luck.
  5. hi, cutting out all yeast and suger products will help; good thing about the band, everytime i try to eat bread am sick. best of luck
