Hi Girls, I was banded in March of this year and I am down 50 some LBs and feeling great...following all the steps and phases will get you results..Best of luck to all..

Sounds Yummy!!!! Thanks

Best of luck to you...

I just did that yesterday!!! after 2 1/2 months banded ..I decided to have a little rice and a peice of chicken AT THE SAME TIME!!!!WRONG...Ugly feeling..first I got the HICKUPS "BAD" then I started to chuck...It hurt so bad...Never...rice is out of my menu for now...Best of Luck to you Mikissa..

Congrats!! wishing u the best..DIDO on wut Bklynike said ..so true..

No one ever said it was going to easy...right?...I so think its worth it.My husband had the Gastric done a couple of years ago.....and I told myself ( NO WAY I COULD GO THROUGH ALL THAT) well, I had my surg 3-18-10 (the lapband) im down 32LB and feeling very good ..Its still hard but u adjust. Look!! once you see the LB start to drop and your kids friend tell your son (hey your mom is lossing weight)and it brings a big smile to your sons face..Shooot!! you'll tell yourself "HELL YEA" its worth it...after a couple of fills the hunger will go away...Hang in their..

Maybe eat a little bit more...maybe ur working out more... with not enough food to burn..remeber food is your fuel..

Walking!! lots of walking..that will take the pain away..I had the same prob..trust me..walk..use pillows on ur sides when u sleep...I am also a belly sleeper..the painon ur shoulder is air from the surg..move around more..the breathing in part with pain I also had..Shoot i thought to myself ( did they take out and organ or something...lol) it will go away..in time..take ur pain meds..And after all that ur back to norm...Good luck.

Congrats! Your story sounds soooo like Me!! I am 4 week post-op and had my first fill last week 4cc..since my surg I have lost a toal of 31lb and feeling good..Keep up the good work and fallow all of your phases..it helps.
