Hi, I hope everyone did great over the holidays..as for me I did terrible,yes really bad..my doc. postponed my fill date 12-30-09. but I do have an appointment fri.1-15-10,, he will surly be disapointed with me,. but I am trying to get back on track.not doing very good at that. I can't seem to want to do anything but eat,I get so mad at myself. does anyone have any suggestions? Hope to hear from someone..

Hello,,,Haven't heard from anyone in couple of months. how is everyone??:thumbup:

Well how is the restriction? I'm hoping to get a fill next time too! eating real good now, a little too good,been walking, a lot of yard work..need to join something.. but when I get off work I am ready to come home.I'll just have to get me some exercise tapes or something..talk later.

Hi all,I also have been getting hicups!!they hurt, but I didn't know I was full then..good to know,this is a really strange thingy, I have... today i could eat, well just about anything I wanted, was really hungry today.i try being good, I guess we all have those days, just a good thing it isn't everyday.

I did go to the Doc,, He said that I was doing very good, I told him about the tightness, So I didn't get a fill. I have been having some slimming incidents, not fun!! So I go again in a month,said I may have my band inflamed?? I have to eat real slow, one good thing,have been losing weight.YES!!!

Well hello..My weight had slowed also, for three weeks not a single pound.... well I weighed today and wow I was suprised,lost about six pounds, I go to the doc Friday,another fill, my second, I haven't had much restriction since the first fill, but this week I have been really tight! I don't know how that works, really strange, been hard to eat much.I don't know if he will do a fill or not.

Where is everyone??? haven't heard from anyone in a month, let me know what is going on with everyone ..ok?

I got stuck today, really the first really bad one. I ate to fast, or I didn't chew well, both will cause it, I think if you have a band ,at some point this will happen, it will for sure slow you down. good luck tomorrow, remember,SLOW...chew well.lol

Yes it was my first fill..I am discourged as well. I am not gaining, but I am not losing either..But i do feel better than I did the other day..lol,Thanks for sharing with me,at least i'm not the only one that thinks i don't have a band..Oh yea, my doc won't tell me how much he puts in,,wonder why.?

ok where is everyone??? I got my fill, I think I'm hungerier than ever!.... what to do??

I am getting my first fill Aug. 7th.

For those who have had fills, or just someone that knows.. how many cc's fluid does a standard AP lapband hold..just wondering,, and does the doc tell you how much he is putting in, when he does a fill.

Hi, yes I also get the achie feeling, kinda of hurts, I think I am eating to fast, I can just about eat what i want...That is not a good thing, really been eating, I am walking about two miles a day,,that is why im not gaining I guess, not losing but not gaining...also I do have a lot of gas too... wonder why? seems like it moves around my port at times and that hurts.

I think it means Productive belch, don"t really know that for sure, they were talking about getting food stuck and then had a pb and it came up, like the air pushed the food back up, what do you think?:thumbup:
