  1. Thank you for responding. I think you may have a point about the stretched pouch. Following the 5 day pouch test couldn't hurt and may get me back on track. Thanks for the info!
  2. Laura, Thank you for you reply. I went to the website that you posted and this seems a great way to get "back on the wagon". I am really motivated to get going again. The great thing about the band, is that it is always waiting there to be used again....
  3. Hi Everyone, I am new to LBT. I was banded in July 2006 and things have been slow for the past year. I have fallen back to my pre-banding behavior of trying a different diet everyday. I am just beside myself. Also, I think my pouch is stretched and am going to try liquids for a few days to see if it will shrink back to size. I seem to be eating everything that will go through my band and not the things I should. HELP!!!

  6. Hi All, I am new to LBT and am posting for the first time. My question to you is what do you drink when you are on liquids for a stretched pouch? Do you start with clears and then move on to full liquids? I need to get my restriction back and will try this before I see my surgeon for my fill appointment next week. Thanks
