I had my band done Aug. 24th 05, and have done real well. I went for my 5th fill, I have a 9.75/4cc band. When thd Dr. went to do the fill, he didn't hold pressure on the needle and it didn't go in. Then he did it again, and it didn't fill like usual. You know how you get the pressure feeling when they enter the port, well, now it is like I have no restriction. What do you think might have happened? I called the office and he does not come back until the 4th. So I am going to see what he says. Has anyone ever had this happen. I can eat anything, before I couldn't even eat scrambled eggs. I'm am so upset. In just 1 week, I've already gained 4bls. back. Please give me some imput!!!!!!

Good for you, Michelle!! I am not at all surprised that you haven't gained weight back. It was obvious to me even before you had your erosion that you had worked out the "head" issues that cause obesity.

Best of luck to you! Bet you will continue to lose once you start training.

Michelle you ROCK! I am so proud of you. The band is a tool but ultimately it is mind over matter, and you have set your mind to a healthier you! You go girl and I know you will reach your goal in no time. Thanks for the support of all of us newer bandsters. You inspire more than you know! May your new year be filled with all the things you ever dreamed!!!

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
