Why Cant You Eat And Drink At The Same Time?
Sweet Change replied to Loneil's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Well personally..I can drink all I want before I eat..but after I eat and I take even one drink its like liquid has no where to go but back up (not vomit but fill up like a cup lol) ...after I learned how it worked and I learned how to control it I found that I didnt loose any weight during that time..so I am sure it was just pushing the food through and making more room .. its just hard..I love having something cold to drink after a bite of hot food ugh.. oh well..its totally worth it to me -
Hey lady! Hope things are going very well with you! Just dropping a line to see how everything's progressing! =) Take care, hun!

I am 8 weeks pregnant and have the Lap Band...I would appreciate some advice from someone that has been pregnant after having surgery..how did it go? Did you have to have fluid taken out? Did it put additional restriction on the band due to all the pressure of the baby when you were further along? I want to do what is best and let my baby get all the things he/she needs..so if you could email me or get with me on my page.. I would greatly appreciate it! Hope to hear from someone soon... Thank you! dispatch2287@yahoo.com

Anyone regret their decision to get banded?
Sweet Change replied to JoJo22's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
NO WAY! I do not regret my choice, I love how I feel and look. I have lost 85 lbs in a year and a half..only have 15 till my initial goal (which is what I weighed in HS) so if I dont hit it..its not that big of a deal..I also just found out that I am pregnant..if I didnt have the surgery I wouldnt be where I am now. I am so excited, and as another fine lady said your still early in your journey trust me the first two weeks of mine were horrible, I couldnt keep anything down ..the Dr prescribed me Nexium and then I was fine..The weight loss didnt start "showing" till after my first couple fills wich was about 6 months in...Even though I had been loosing slowly before then I just didnt see or feel it. Then I started swimming in my clothes and I just smiled..it will get better..just do what your supposed to..eat and drink how your supposed to and of course you have to make the effort by working out..the band is just a tool..but it will be fine..Keep your chin up! Dont rush it -
