  1. My port has already flipped once and had surgery to fix it in 8/10 The dr says that the body rejects the suchers and they depend on scar tissue to help it stay in place. Well I went in for a fill a few weeks ago and the Dr. Could not find the port again. Did the floro x ray yesterday and it's flipped again. Dr's PA called me this morning and he said that my port is at a 90 degree angle and wants to see if he cann get to it now that he has seen the x-ray. I go back in on the 26 to see if I get surgery again or just remove the band.
  2. What's up fellas. I was just banded on 3/3/09 a week ago today and I feel great. I was about 305lbs before I started my liqiuid diet 1 week before my surgery. I did cheat only two days with a bit of food. I was a bit freaked out becase I have never had any type of surgery before. Went in and out in a flash. I'm on liquids right now till next week and have been doing god in controling my hunger. I just weighed myself a while ago and I'm down to 278 lbs. I have not weighed this since probably 2001. If I can do it all of you can also. I was the type that if I was infront of the computer like right now I would of had 2-3 twienkies by now and a few cookies to. Good luck to all. You can do it!!:thumbup:
  3. I have the worst job in this bad economy. I do the evictions on foreclosed properties that the banks take back. Somebodys got to do it right.
  4. I have my surgery date set for 3/3/09 at Oraqnge Coast in F.V. I have been looking at this site for questions that I have. I guess that I'm still in a shock mode that I'm doing this so I have not started to prepare. What protien driks should I begin to try and what is the best place to buy them. Only my wife knows about this and plan to keep it that way.:thumbup: Does anybody have a preferance between the two bands. Realize band vs. Lap Band Any help will be great.
