Banded 4/7 and am down 37 pounds with one fill. Go back next week to see about another fill but don':thumbup:t know if they will give me one.
-
My doctor says there isn't one for the Realize band but they are contemplating a card.
-
I didn't make the decision. My surgeon chose my band. I am almost 2 months out so I don't have a lot of history either. However, so far, I love my band and I only had one fill about a week and a half ago. I have the Realize band and am very happy with it. I don't think one is necessarily better than the other. Good luck on your journey.

Had my first fill yesterday. I was only apprehensive in the fact that I had no idea what to expect. It went great. It is not a big deal at all. Good luck to you all.

I asked my doctor today and he said no eating or drinking 2 hours before a fill.

I was banded on April 7th. My first fill appt is on Thursday as well. I am able to eat anything, just trying to make wise choices. Hoping to start this fill journey so it will get a little easier to know when to stop. My surgeon says count Protein not calories or fat but avoid all sugars.
I really enjoy reading about everyone else. It is very inspiring. Good luck to you all!

Awesome. Very inspiring!

Thanks, Katie! Not much movement lately. First fill is next Thursday. I know not to expect too much but at least it will be heading in the right direction.
You look like you are right there with me. When were you banded?

Been watching posts on this site for a month and thought it was time to join in. I was banded April 7. 2010. So far everything has been going ok. I can't wait to start my fills and get out of Bandster hell. I am not complaining but am ready to see the scale move. Looking foward to this adventure with you all.

I would love to join the challenge. This is my first post period on here so I have no idea what I am doing. I would like to lose 15 lbs by the 4th.
Help! Where to have the port located?

Mine is also in left sholder area, right where bra cups meet strap. I like it there. You don't even realize it is there after it heals.
