How do they fix a slipped lapband?

I also have a Realize Band filled to 7.5 cc's.

Hello Everyone, I am out here just plugging along with slow weight loss but losing just the same. Went for a fill a couple of weeks ago and that is helping. I am at 7.5 cc's in the Realize Band. I am having to be very careful, mostly drinking shakes, milk, water. I hope you are all enjoying your holidays. It is cold here in California! Go ahead and laugh but I am not used to it. I am wrapped in a blanket most of the day. My best to all!

Hi Phyl, Thanks for sharing the x-ray. Of course I am very interested because of my back problems. Please keep us updated on what the next steps are and the feedback you receive. I hope you are pain free. :thumbup:

Just wanted to say hi. I have been out of commission for a while because of spine surgery, but I am back now and so glad to see everyone is doing well.

Hello Everyone, Just have to say that all of you make this the best thread on this website. It is like being a part of a community. Everyone is at an age that they don't have a problem telling the truth and the most wonderful thing is that we would all choose to do it again! Good Luck to those considering the Lap-Band Procedure and God Bless our Lap-Band family. Thank you for allowing me to join you guys. :thumbup:

JerseyGirl, Wow - Good Job - I have the wii fitness but just haven't used it yet. I am a sad sack!:smile2:

You are an inspiration! What exercises do you do on the wii??:smile2:

Thank you Karen. I needed that encouragement and will take your suggestions.

Emergency!!!!!! Have you guys ever gained weight since getting the band? If, yes, what did you do, just diet, to take the weight off and does the band stretch out and never go back to it's original effectiveness? Thanks for any help.

Hi Karen, Movie rental suggestions - "Away We Go", "Chicago", "Night at the Museum 1 & 2", "Bolt" (a cartoon0, " Valkyrie" and "Australia" warning, it is 4 hours long. Happy Watching! Congratulations on your successful surgery. Please keep us updated.:blushing:
