I agree with everyone...please keep in mind that you did not come this far to gain all your weight back...they say we have an 12-18month window to lose as much weight possible; so for all of you who are counting your calories and trying to do it the right way it will pay off in a couple of years....for those of us who are eating whatever we like eventually it will catch up with us as well...lets all stay on track; for me it will be the first of the year. I have fallen off track, but I plan to lose 20 -35 pds by March 20th...and Yes I can do it at least I have hope and determination. smile.

I have lost 80-83 lbs...up and down in my weight... but I want to be a size 16 by March 20 2010. I hope I can do it. I put a call into my doctor today for a fill sometime in Jan; its been 4 months since I got a fill. I dont know how many ccs I have so I am waiting for them to return my phone call with that answer as well. Well I hope to hear back from all of you. thanks,

the pain in the shoulder was the worse for me but i consumed Protein Drinks every 1-2 hr just a cough Syrup size and it did the trick for me..my doctor wanted me to have Protein before anything went in my system..atkins shakes are good or even the ones in your docs office

I did not do the pre-op op diet my doctor wanted me to lose 5 lbs but i was like yeah right However the reason behind losing the weight before surgery is to make sure your live is a regular size so that they dont have any problems..that what my doctor said and I have to be honest my doctor is the best...smile dr emma patterson very well known doctor all over the world.curently she is in portland oregon

Is it because you lost the weight that you are no longer in love or attractive to him? Please dont give up make sure you try everything in your power before you decided to walk away. If you can afford counseling maybe try a church minister or something like that. Be encourage. I need to know people that can surivie marriage so when its my turn I can say if she/he did it I can too. Thanks Be bless

wow your in Oregon I from Oregon aslo, who did your surgery if yo dont mind me asking?

I had my surgery in 01-21-09. I have lost 80lbs to date and in the last three weeks continue to eat like a cow but i can never eat what i use to eat. I tried to get a fill in october but my stomach was way to sensitive so they had to take it out. i will go back in Jan10 and see how i do.. they told me to stay with the lowest fill possible. I notice when i over eat my left side hurts under my rib cage so i am trying to be extra carful at this point..listening to others on here made me think my band may be eroding. I PRAY TO GOD ITS NOT....I STILL HAVE 60LS MORE TO LOSE.
-
When doing a cleanse does that mean you cant eat for a few days?
-
i have uncomfotable under my left rib cae but i notice its because i over eat and i think i get swollen in that area never the less i pray its not band erosion. my port site does not hurt no problems at all
