  1. RedMom..Thanks for sharing it helps make me feel not so alone. I know everyone is different but is so discouraging when you hear one had surgery and has lost 60 lbs and haven't had a fill yet..My Aunt went many months to no sucsess and know she's down 70lbs... We all have are own stories it's just nice to be able to share here...THANKS To ALL!! Best wishes with your first fill, my first went real well. My second one was hard due to the fact they said I had a lot of scar tissue built up..I've been massaging the area hopefully it helps...Keep me posted...
  2. Thanks so much for sharing...I think you need to talk to your doctor or even your reg. MD. My Doctor placed me on Pantoprazole (Protonix) 40 MG once a day for 6 months to control my stomach acid. Maybe your doctor can put you on this or Nexium. I had Acid Reflux years ago so bad I thought I was having a heart attack, so I can see how bothersome it can be to deal with daily...I haven't focused on myself much so I need to get focused ....But again I feel pretty much the same as I did before surgery. I wonder how many other people are like myself..Thanks again...
  3. Let me say at first thank you for sharing this post. I had my LAP BAND surgery 10-06-08 and I feel completely unrestricted. I have had two fills thus far..I feel the same right now as I did before the lap band...I hope I find my sweet spot soon I haven't lost weight yet..I feel like a complete failure...My next fill is January 21st..Wish me luck
