Hi! Figured it was time I got connected with some sort of support group. I'm 53, had my lap band 6-27-11, and had lost 20# but back to 17#. My first fill was 8-15-11, and I lost well for a few weeks, then stopped. Seemed hungry a lot of the time and was able to eat way too much. Doc put in 3.5cc the first time.
I went yesterday and had 2 cc more put in and having some back up trying to eat/drink. At this point I'm just trying to figure out what I can eat and drink and keep in. Kind of a scarey thing when even fluids back up on you!
