I can no longer eat regular crust pizza, if we do have pizza(which isnt often) I can only eat thin crust. If your like me you might have ALOT of trouble with thick /dry breads

I can't drink anything this AM, PBing it all up and Ive been in pain since yesterday. Just waiting for 9am to call, I can't take this anymore. Ive lost 8lbs in 2 1/2 days. Im so dizzy from not being able to eat. I hope they can see me today, stinks I have to drive 2 hours, but I can't go like this over the weekend.

I havent tried solids yet, just water and soup. I had no issues with the soup, just the water. Im going to try solids in the AM, and if I have to many issues, I will call my MD. Is a day and half enough time for the swelling to go down??

Hi Everyone, When was banded in 12/26/2006 I was 335, I got down to 289, and then I had a baby and lots of stress(baby born 11 weeks early) So Im starting over, I was 338 when I had my band filled(7/14) again(was empty while I was pregnant). I was so happy to see this thread because many times I have been made to feel I was to 'large' to be banded. So Ive lost 1 lb so far...38 lbs to the "2"'s

It's been so long since I had my band filled(was empty for my pregnancy) Im not sure if what Im feeling is my "spot" or if Im too tight. Should I feel really full when drinking only a few sips of water?? Im able to drink warm soup , easier then the water. What are the signs of being to tight? Thanks

Hi Everyone! My name is Vanessa, I was banded on 12/26/06 by Dr. Paul Wizman in Margate, Florida. I lost 50 lbs in 6 months, then happily discovered I was pregnant with my first child. All was going well and then I developed PHI, and my son was born 11 weeks premature, weighing 1 lb 15 oz. After the up's and down's of it all I gained it all back and had another fill yesterday. I have 10cc band and have 2.5cc in, feeling quite tight, Im ready to start loseing again, and hope to make some friends from here :thumbup:
