  1. Hi All
    I was banded 9/24/08. I am down 99 lbs and just recently decided with my doctor that it is time for a fill. When I went in to get my fill I found out that my port is upside down. First he went in with a needle and stabbed all around. That hurt! The next time he decided to try and fill me under an x-ray which is when he found out that the port is upside down. Does anyone know what causes this? Is it from too much ab work? Shouldn't the stitches hold it in place? I am going in for surgery again tomorrow morning. I am really bummed:thumbdown: I hope it was not something that I did to cause this. I am worried if I will have to go another 6 weeks with out exercise. That will put me back big time! I do Jillian Micheals Fat zones for 50 min a day, treadmil 25 min, 100 sit ups, and Firm body sculpt 45 min. I don't want to start all over again! Please tell me this is not a big deal and I can continue doing what I have been doing. :w00t:
     
    Have a great Valentines Day everyone! :smile:
  2. What to Do?

    I have my cousins wedding to go to on Saturday. I just got banded 9/24/08 and I am not able to advance to stage three until October 8th. What should I do about eating? Should I hope that they will have some broth or should I bring my own? I think that would be a little tacky but if I have to I would.
