I have never had a fill with fluoro and have had no problems, 4 fills so far everythimg awesome:thumbup:

cool I will be checking some of them out!!!!!

yep I love youtube.... I do a weekly Vlog.... Danyett on youtube.com:thumbup:

If you eat high calorie foods and dont exercise You can gain. Things like milkshakes and ice cream go down easy. We have to do our part the band only limits our food intake the rest is up to us.:frown: we are all human and can sometimes slip up. I love my band!

I am feeling great..... I do a weekly vlog on youtube talk about my ups and downs....over all I love my band.

I also was banded oct 16th time seems to have sped by!

fills have really helped me....everytime I start getting tooo hungry and am able to eat tooo much I have gone for a fill! I have had 3 fills and I believe I have 7.1cc's in my 10cc band ....also I watch youtube videos of other people who have had lap band and make weekly videos myself, helps me to stay on track....plus it's cool to see how diffrent I look already in just 3months:thumbup:

your welcome

most of what you can have after surgey is sweet so I made a big pot of homemade chicken broth ....(whole chicken, two yellow onions,celery, carrots, spices,anything else you like, alittle chicken base and filled up the pot water cooked for 4 hours) I froze the broth in tupperwere and took it out as I needed .....it was the best thing I did.....much better than canned or box broth or stock!

I would recomend youtube.com lots of people who have had lap band post weekly vlogs on there myself included I have learned more there than any other fourm.... this one is a good one too Danyett

Hi everyone I was banded on oct 16 I have lost a total of 43 lbs that includes my 2 weeks preop diet. I feel bettter and better every day. I have had 2 fills with a total of 6.1cc in a 10cc band. I got the second fill on dec 14th and I have good restriction I eat 1/2 a cup to a cup 3 times a day and feel full.I am super happy with my band and am happy to not be hungry all the time! Merry Christmas !!!!!!!! Danyett:thumbup:

thank you... and good to hear

a banana with a Tb of peanutbutter or 2 scrambled eggs with salsa

very cool iset my DVR to record it

I had my first fill nov 16th exactly one month out...... my doc does them one month out and once a month til good restriction..... maybe soon if u need it.

Hi everyone!...... I will be getting my second fill on dec 14... I can't wait, I feel no restriction after the first one so I am using mostly willpower, I don't know how long i can keep it up lol. If i had will power I would not have needed the band in the first place...... I am sticking to 3 small meals that are sometimes more than a cup each.... and going to the gym (I hate every second i am there!) went 4 times last week and only lost 1 lb!.....I know 1 is better than none but I didnt work out at all the week before and lost a pound. I am still very happy with the band tho If I didnt have it it I would have given up by now and would have started gaining by now. Danyett:thumbup:

Hi all I am doing well, had my first fill a week ago but don't feel a diffrence. still able to lose weight so very happy!

Disneyworld has every food you can think of so as long as you pick healthy things you will be fine.......... which may be hard because they have lots of yummy bad stuff lol

Thanks Amy! I read your blog all the time..... it was the first blog I found when I was looking into getting my band

mine is about the same place

walking will help, i also used gas x strips and got back rubs from my girl friend..... soft protein: tuna, canned chicken, greek yogurt, refried beans, deviled ham, soft fish like tilapia

Restaurant Card Bariatric Surgery I have not done this yet ..... its a card you print out and have your Doctor sign it......

I am self pay also,I am in denver my sergon used disposable stiches. with clear plastic strips covering them so about five days out you pull off the plastic..... gently wash them thats it... just check with the doctor on what to do

Just a quick tid bit..... anyone who needs a good fiber supplement... Target has a super yummy fiber gummy....by vitafusion....one supplement I look forward to lol..... I wasnt doing fiber at first my weight loss stopped for like 5 days then started fiber ......lost 4lbs in last 4 days wooohooo

I had my lap band surgery with him just over two weeks ago. I think he is awesome! I had a lot less pain than a lot of people (from Gas) he does awesome. I have lost 27 lbs so far as of this morning!(pre op and post op)
