I am happy to see all of your great outcomes. I know you must be elated. I know I would be. I have not done as well but I will keep on trying. I have lost some weight but have struggled in doing so. I would like some help if anyone can do so. I would like to maybe exchange emails or maybe post a message in my profile.

I too have not done soo well and with the new year am searching for help. ANYONE??? I still over eat and end up gettin sick because of it...what is wrong with me? How does everyone else do it? :thumbup:

Hi My name is Melissa and I live in Texas. I am getting my band on Friday Feb 5 2010. I am at 332 lbs currently and have a BMI of 57.

I want to hear anything anybody wants to tell me! :thumbup:

Who better to ask than those who have gone before me? :w00t:

My surgery will be done by Dr. Rincon in San Antonio.

I did all my pre-op stuff on 1/5/10 and have lost 6 lbs so far. I started out at 338 and Im practicing now for the pre-op diet.

So please reply!

:thumbup:good luck

thanks..I think this will be helpful

The office is so backed up. I get my fill and then I speak with a nutrionilst who spends more time talking about herself, her kids, her husband and how busy she is than talking about me. She didn't even look at my eating record the last time I went in She asked me if I was feeling OK, asked if I was having any Hair loss, told me to be sure and get enough protien and then abruptly excused me when she the receptionist interruped us with an announcement that she had a call holding for her.

I too am confused. I get food stuck, I am always hungery. I have had 4 fills. Do I need another fill or two to not be hungry? I am assuming food is gettng stuck because I am eating too fast and not chewing good enough..is that the case?

Hi, My name is Keri (Keri is already taken so I am now HKeri for this web site). I had my surgery last July and have had 4 fill's, I have not lost very much weight. I am able to eat a lot still. I had a large bagle for Breakfast with no trouble, I had a whole bag of pop corn yesterday and can eat almost as much as before the surgery.

I had the surgery because I have an eating problem...I STILL have an eating problem. Can anyone advise me. Should I get another fill, is there a trick to reducing my intake and not feel as if I'm starving. I am so depressed over this and would be very greatful for any guidance anyone could give me.
