  1. What kind of band do you have with all thos restriction? I went to Mexico and got the Allergan VG band, It holds 14cc, I am 2 months post op and have only lost 18 pounds, I feel like I have no restriction! I have had 1 fill and have lost no more weight, should I ask for more saline?
  2. When I had my first fill, the needle went in where my long incision is on the middle of my stomach... I could have sworn my Dr. In Mexico told me my port was located on my left side? Did they go in the wrong place?
  3. can someone tell me how to get a ticker?
  4. I am so tired of people trying to "steal my thunder" I hate it when people are negative about me getting the Lapband. Just today someone said, " people should just diet and excersize" UGH!!!! Of course this came from a skinny person whom has never had a weight problem!
  5. Thanks, I will give them a call.
  6. NO!!! I am starting my pro op Thursday & I am all over the place with emotions alo, WE CAN DO THIS!!!!! I think of it as I HAVE to. If I want to watch my grandkids grow up I have to do this! SMILE!
