Thanks @@2muchfun

I was banded in August 2010. SW 288 lowest weight 153. Current weight 221. Ever since I have been in Charlotte between allergies and breathing problems. I was on prednisone and my band was unfilled since then I have gained weight I have not been able to lose. They started filling my band again slowly but I came to a point where I was throwing up too much and acid reflux was insane so they unfilled me again. I was filled a little yesterday I feel the restriction but I am just so frustrated. On the verge of depression.

I have been struggling with my band and I am in much need of support.

I see my doctor on the 23rd. I know I need more restriction.

Thank you Michele! I have been working out, it's my eating that I definitely need to change. I have no discipline.

I recently got a fill in July. I have a follow up end of the month.

I am trying to get back on track. It seems my efforts are not working. I feel hungry all the time.

I started 288 lbs. I was banded Aug 25th 2010. I went down to 153 lbs. I recently got sick and was put on steroids and I gained weight and I am current 220 lbs. I feel so frustrated, like a failure. I have been eating right and exercising but the weight is not coming off. I currently live in Charlotte, Nc. I need a buddy/mentor. I was to be at 170-180 lbs.

That would be awesome!

No it wasn't band related. Bad bad allergies.

I got surgery done August 2010, started at 288, went down to 153. Got sick and 3cc were taken out and I was put on steroids twice, current weight 220.

I got my last fill on 07/29. I was 218. I have cut down on carbs and I have been exercising 5 days a week. I just weighed myself I'm 220 lbs.

Hello everyone! I have been banded for almost 3 years now. I recently got sick with really bad allergies and doctor had me on a very high dose of steroids and 3cc's were taken out of my band. This caused me to gain about 40 lbs. thankfully I am doing great. I went for a fill on Tuesday, they have been filling me up gradually, so right now I'm on liquids for 3 days and soft foods for 3 days. Back to the basics so to speak. This time around I want to cut out carbs, just get the minimal amount needed, with that said. Has anyone tried the Paleo Diet? Has it worked for you? What do you eat?

I would love to join . Very kool idea! Lisha.ortiz@gmail.com

Thank you so much everyone. I survived day one of liquids. Now on day 2. Trying to remember what are some mushy foods I can eat. Also trying to think of simple no crab meals.
