I have 8cc in my 14cc band. Lately I have been sticking if i eat something too fast/not chew it well enough..I have lost 3 more lbs since my last office visit-2 weeks ago...I am happy but this weight loss is really slow..I get very gassy at times..beware! lol...People I work with told me that my face looks smaller,but I have this tire in the middle that I need to get rid of..I have been eating oatmeal in the morning for breakfast and sometimes I eat cereal as a snack..I am going to the gym 3 times a week for an hour a day..My energy is really good..I am drinking alot of fluids so I feel like I live in the bathroom..I take my vitamins every day and my energy level is great...:cursing:

Hello All my weakness is the weekends because I am out and about..sometimes dining out and making the right decisions is tuff...do I want the buffet or should i make dinner at home?! LOL..Its tough..sometimes when at work i get bored and wanna munch on stuff...ok there is goes!

A new woman/// good morning..I feel your pain because i had the band surgery in august 2007 and because my mother passed away i deviated from the whole thing..i waited until 12.2008 to get back on track..i am down 30 lbs now..i have 8cc in my band..my band holds 14cc..i get stuck sometimes but for the most part i dont eat alot..i drink more to get over my cravings..good luck!

Good Morning all..hope u had a nice Easter I am pretty much maintaining weight..i get stuck occasionally now that I have 8cc in 14 cc band...honestly everyone Ive told said that i have alot of Fluid in my band..I wonder if I really have alot....suggestions??

Hello married How did ur doctor know that ur stomach was coming thru the band?? I am just curious???!!!!

I posted today but I wanted to say that I feel like 8cc is alot in general..I' ve read other posts and like what I have is alot..I know everyone is different but still and all...

Hello All!! I had a fill yesterday so now i have 8cc in 14cc band.. Honestly I am not thrilled about this..I bascially saw the doctors office 2 weeks ago & I maintained my weight.. With that said I will have to try harder..I am not disappointed just not happy about the situation either... One day at a time I guess

Good Morning and Good Luck!! You will be fine..When I had my surgery done the anesthesiologist was so good i didnt know i went under LMAO.. Welcome to Lap band talk toO!!

Good Morning I have bcbs insurance and I dont require an auth to have fills done..they bill an office surgery and its paid 100%..only thing I have to pay is $20 copay..hmmm doesnt sound right

Hello.. I have 2 disc herniations in my back and my chiro was suggesting cortizone shots in my back..do they hurt? pleae be honest..I dont exersize as hard as I should because I dont want it to be really bad..I do alot of walking and sometimes the treadmill..I dont take ibupohen so i dont know much about it..probabaly not good to take too much of anything.

Yeah I think it was what I was eating and I how fast I was eating it.... I will be ok..i didnt wanna vomit too hard to make it slip..

Hello All I have 7.5cc in my 14cc band and I got stuck today..i had to vomit..i ate chicken salad from burger king..I feel so queezy right now.. Just wanted to share this :crying:

Good Morning!! I have 7.5cc in a 14 cc band..I have restriction and i have to eat slowly because I can feel it "back up"..I hope that I have reached my sweet spot or at least getting there..Good luck All
