  1. Hello Tam. Most people experience the pain in their shoulder the best advice I can give is to get up and move around some. It is excess air that is trapped. They used air to blow you up during surgery to make it easier to move and see what they were doing. Your body will eventually absorb it but you need to move around to make that happen.

  2. Hey there everyone. I was banded on October 17, 2008. I do not regret one bit of it. I have lost my weight more gradual than most. But I thought it would be valuable for me to put in my two cents in case some of you are like me. I have only lost 40lbs. up to now but it is steady. I really need to go in for a fill because I do not have much restriction anymore. I still have much more to lose. I am starting to work out now because I feel much better and have more energy. I also noticed that there were times when I lost inches instead of pounds. I have gone from a size 24 to 18 so far. My goal is a size 10.

    Hello my name is Amy and I have lost a total of 24lbs. Pre op diet included. I am getting a little frustrated because I have had my first fill on Nov. 17th and haven't lost anymore weight. I have a total of 3cc in my band. My next fill is scheduled for Dec. 18th. Please reply if you have any encouraging news for me because I am getting impatient. Also how do I get one of those tickers to display at the bottom of my blog that will keep track of my progress?
  6. I had my surgery on October 17, 2008. I have lost a total of 20lbs. from the beginning of the pre op to now and I am frustrated. I had my first fill on Nov.17th and I still feel like I am not losing anymore. I have 3cc in my band now. Has anyone experienced anything similar to this and if so what did you do? I would also like to get one of those tickers at the bottom of my entries that keep track of my progress. Can someone tell me how to get one of those?
