In any case, I'd be careful to keep up the liquids to avoid dehydration.

Good for you CapitolChick! I think working with the combination of a Band and WW makes this so achievable with much quicker results. It WORKED for me!

Hi BSG, Sounds like you're having a really rough time of it. :cool2: From what I can gather, your situation seems highly unusual - never heard of this before?!? Sliming usually happens when there's a blockage but it's just temporary and then passes. Could be you're really swollen? I'd recommend seeing your doctor as soon as possible.

Good for you Willow75....You've taken the first step to a better life. Well done. :cool2: I hope you are able to go ahead with the op, it's the best thing!

Hi, I'm new at this, have read many posts over the months, but this is my first post, so please be patient with me if I don't get it right. Since I was banded back in May 08, I had been in such a good head space. As as result, my weight loss has been fantastic, but I seem to be "loosing it". I had abstained from my trigger foods: takeaways, alcohol, potato chips etc. but they've since started creeping back, and my weight loss has slowed, though I'm still exercising. It's like they open up this insatiable abyss. The other thing is, my band is quite wide open for a bandit, but any more fill makes me so tight. My Doctor took out .02ml to loosen me up from being too tight, but I can eat ANYTHING and am not satisfied for long. I know most of this journey is more a head trip rather than hunger trip so how does one get back to that good headspace for further weightloss/maintenance?
