Hi everybody, it looks like nobody come on this blog anymore.

Hello everybody, just wanted to see how everybody getting on?

Hi everybody, hope everyone is doing well, has anyone had a slipped band before? i have got a pain in my chest its like trapped air wanting to come out but can't and i fell no restriction even i have 7.5mls in my band! but the pain is very uncomfortable.

hi everybody,hope everyone enjoying the long bank holidays. i went for a fill last week i now have 7.5ml in my band and haven't lost any weight for 7months!! i have lost 55 Lbs since my surgery in 2010 but that's it im not losing anymore even with my last fill.i have already had an x rays and everything is fine. im always hungry i feel hungry every 2 hours,and when i had a fill up to 8ml then i suffer acid re flux so i had to take 0.5ml out. which mean 7.5 mls is the max i can have.Im getting very depress im just not losing weight.is anybody experiencing the same thing? im quite short 4 11 so i really need to get down to at least 120-100lbs.

hi freckels, haven't seen you for a while. im glad you are better now !

hi everyone, haven't been on here for ages ! been banded for 17months now and lost 55 pounds its about time i have a fill now!!

hi everyone,hope all is doing well. Hi freckles welcome back ,you too going through that acid reflux ,i was going through a hard time last time i couldnt sleep at all mucus was comming through my nose it was terrible but then i had an unfill i now have 7mls. i can eat everything so its purely self control now i lost 6lbs just being on liquid diet for 4 weeks now as i cannot have anymore fill. well i hope it gets better for you or else its best to have an unfil.

Hello everybody hope all is doing well! congrats Husk on getting banded! I had my 6th fill last week so i got 8mls in my band when i finally got restiction i wasn't able to eat much very small portion like half aslice of bread, matchbox size piece of chicken...but i was feeling very full with a slime fast shake for hours,i wold have one at lunch 1pm then i wouldnt eat anything untill 5.30pm. but today after a week i am goin back for an unfill as i am suffering from acid reflux. as soon as i put my head on the pillow the acid in my stomach will come up,i choke few time in a night its a very bad feeling, i will have to have that 0.5mls remove which will not give me the restriction!! anyways i thought i shared my experience with you guy. have a nice day all.

Thanks Mummies, I dont have much restriction i can still eat fairly big portion and i also suffer from acid reflux. i will speak to freddy and see what he says. take care.

hello everybody, hope everyone is doing well. as for me im ready for my 6th fill as i have not lost any weight over 5 months !

Hi Freckles, hope you are ok yes its been a long time haven't seen you on here!! i am having a similar problem like you had when i sleep fluid and flems rise through my mouth so i am going for an unfill this months despite im not fully restricted.

Thank you SaraP , Despite not having much restriction i have lost a total of 44llbs a year in August since ive had the band i was hopping o lose a bit more without anymore fill.i will grt in touch wth frederick today. goodluck with your leak fix, SaraP can i ask you if you are paying againg for this surgery?

Hi everybody, i will be very happy if anybody can advice me, i have 7.5mls in my band and my last fill was in may i only lose weight the week i have the fill 1to 2 kg but otherwise i dont lose any it stop! i am not sure what is restriction, at times i can eat a lot and sometime i cant eat anything. frederick told me that after my last fill i wouldnt need anymore as i will be losing the weight at least 1 to 2 llbs a week. but as i havent had fill for the month of june and july i haven't lost any weight that month. i am not sure what to do i am planning to go for another fill in july so that i can lose 1 or 2llbs again but do i need a fill every month to lose weight! if anybody has any advice or have experience this before please let me know.

thank you very much claire, am glad i don't have to travel to belgium.

Hi everyone, hope all is doing well, i was banded last august its comimg up to a year now i just wanted to know if we have to go for an anual check up and do we have to go to belgium as frederick haven't told me anything. thank you
