  1. Hello salma. It will be 1 year next month for me Oct 26th, I have lost 113 pounds. The big key is exercise for a few resons. 1. It helps to keep your body tone while losing weight. 2. With the lap Band you lose more weight faster by working out. I work out every day for 40 mins a day 20 mins in the morning and 20 mins in the evening that's all, and I do it all at home. 3rd. you feel so much better after a good work out and it keeps you motivated.. But yes there is a plateau that you will reach. Then one day you will get on the scale and see you have lost a few more pounds... I have only 15 more pounds to go to reach my goal but it's coming off slower now... But still moving. So I would say work out alot more it should help.. GOOD LUCK!!!


  2. Do not give up.. Seeing another Dr. may be the way to go it would not hurt to see what he or she have to say.. CRY AND GET IT OUT, once you are done crying you will feel better and fight for what you need. ALL THE BEST TO YOU..


  3. After a fill you should to stay on liquids and soft foods for 3 days.. You may just have to slip all your liquids all the time, to keep you from burping.. I also think 5cc is alot, I remeber my first fill I was given 4cc and I was sick so sick. My band holds 10cc. And now I only get 1.5cc after finding what works for me. Call your Dr.after 4 or 5 days if it has not goten any better you may have to have some of your fill taken out. I wish you the best.. Good Luck!


  4. Hello missrbp I have a few suggestion for you. When you go to the seminar and hear so much info on what you have to do beofre this surgery. It's going to feel like alot to do, but it's easyer then it sounds. My 2nd suggestion is do enjoy all the foods you love now, because after your surgery there are some foods that you will have to give up because they are just not Lap Band freindly. 3rd thing is post your feelings here on this site tell us what you are going through, this site has many wonderful people. keep in touch and Good luck to you. LOVE IT!
