Its nice sorta i guess to understand its just a slow process because the scale is not moving at all for me i was banded in jan and i follow the rules and i cant loose but my clothes are falling off i am down about 6sizes and i just dont get it can someone give me and idea of what you take in for a day of meals!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so discouraged right now

I am about 3mos out and yes certain foods do get stuck and you have to hope it works itself down or bring it back up, but you will learn what foods agree with you and what doesnt but the main thing is too chew, chew,chew, chew take it slow

My nutritionist says the same on caffine but far as diet soda or carbonation water its fine after 6mos she says that is myth about the carbonation messing with band or pouch its totally false.I believe my nutritionist she has done much research and she does alot of consult with the lapband company itself.

I personally buy unjury and my nutritionist gave me different receipes, i am 3mos out but i still make a shake a day it helps towards the protien.

You have to realize that you are in the dr's office with clothes on and most time you have eaten and drank already for that day, i work with alot of nurses in my field i was always told to weigh yourself first thing in am with no clothes on and thats the true weight,When i do that and then go dr its about 2-3 lbs difference the nurse says thats normal.

i got a fill a few days ago and nothing comes up but when i drink its like i automatically burp everytime and i gurgle, should i get unfill

MY DR AT 6WKS POST OP DIDNT WANT TO GIVE ME A FILL EITHER HE SAID MY WEIGHT LOSS WASNT BAD, BUT I SAID I WANTED WANT ONE AND HE GAVE ME 3CC'S I GO BACK MONDAY I STILL FEE L HUNGRY ALOT SO I WILL SEE WHAT HE SAYS NOW

Yes its 6wks thats what my surgeon says you dont want bother that port doing too much!!!!!!!!

HELLO EVERYONE I AM A MONTH AND HALF POST OP I WAS WONDERING WHAT TYPE OF beverages DO YOU GUYS DRINK I DO DRINK ALOT OF Water BUT MY NUTRITIONIST SAID ONLY drinks THAT ARE 10 CALORIES OR LESS BUT THAT GETS ON MY NERVES SOMETIMES, I KNOW THAT BEVERAGES CAN ADD UP IN CALORIES ALSO. SO PLEASE GIVE ME SOME THOUGHT ON THIS MAYBE SOMETHING NEW

my new nutritionist says its for 6mos from surgery only because they put so much gas in you to move around during your surgery and using a straw with contribute more air.

HELLO EVERYONE I WAS BANDED 1/17/2011 IN BALTIMORE MD, AS OF MONDAY I WAS 7WKS POST-OP I HAVE LOST 25LBS A LITTLE DISAPPOINTED BUT I AM HAVING A HARD TIME EAT ENOUGH CALORIES, BUT I AM STILL HAPPY AT THE SAME TIME I VE BEEN GOING THRU THE TRIAL AND ERROR PHRASE WITH EATING TO FAST BUT PRETTY MUCH OK, I HAD MY FIRST FILL LAST WEEK, MY DOCTOR DIDNT PUT ME ON A PRE-OP DIET B4 THE SURGERY IF I HAD PROBALY WOULD BE DOWN MORE BUT ALL IS WELL, EVERYONE PLZ STAY IN TOUCH SO WE CAN DO THIS TOGETHER.
