  1. I had an unfill over labor day due to complicatios. Today I got a "refill". I have 4cc in my 10cc lapband. I am going nuts on liquids. When I get "full" it's only for about an hour. I feel like I'm grazing!! What does your doctor say? How long on liquids? How long on mushies?? Thanks y'all! Katie
  2. Hello Everyone! I was banded in April of 2008. I lost 40lbs in about 5 months. It was fabulous!! But I got content there, yes I know, BAD! I maintained really well though for a year, which was something I had never done before. That in itself was great. Over Labor Day weekend something happened though. I ended up in the ER having my fill taken out. It was a horrible day. It took them a looong time to find the place in the port to unfill. They used x-ray and still couldn't get it. The called my doc and he got it right away... but that was at least a dozen pokes and pricks and HUGE bruise later. They told me to come back to get a fill once I was recovered from the unfill. So God willing I'm going in tomorrow. Monday evening I'm going to start a program called "couch to 5k". So hopefully I'll really loose some good weight with a refill and attempting to do a 5k by the new year!! So that's me... Thanks for reading!! Blessings, Katie †
