Egh I can't believe I let myself get fat again!!!! So angry with myself!

I've been doing well. I'm currently pregnant and have actually lost weight since I found out lol. I find that I'm able to get tortillas down pretty well. I haven't had any problems with my band! I did recently have to get my band unfilled due to pregnancy tightness lol Good luck to you!

Thank you so much!

It looks like you need more protein, less carbs, and that you need to ease up on your liquid calories...you're only supposed to have like 1-2 servings of non/lowfat milk a day. You should look for thicker things to eat...try to stay away from puddings and drinks...they just slide right through the band so they wont let you feel full as long as solid food would...

I've only had one fill...when I went in for my second fill I had lost quite a bit more than 1-2 pounds a week so they decided not to fill any more yet...I'm going to go in sometime this week...I think I need one now

I am so glad that I got this band...I'm down around 32 pounds and I feel great...last month I walked 4.8 miles, over hills, pushing a stroller!!! I thought I was going to die, but it felt great. Dr. Chock wasn't in my network either. I have TriCare. I self paid! She is a wonderful surgeon and thier staff is so supportive and great. It's fun to talk to them because most of them have the band! Good luck!!! It is so so worth it...I would do it all over again in a heartbeat....my only regret...not getting it done sooner . Congrats and you're going to do fine...take care and I'm here if you ever need to talk or have questions
