Hi all, are there any people here from Chicago?

Banded at DayOne Health in downtown Chicago March of 2008. Everything was great, but two kids later I can't get back on track. Very frustrating!!!!!

Have u been in to get a fill recently?

Im I'm Chicago too

I go back on May 14th to get a fill. I have stretched my pouch 4 times....I just can't lose weight, I'm gaining!

How do u stretch your pouch? Have u ever had it totally deflated and started over from scratch?

You can stretch your pouch from over eating a little here and a little there.....over some time you have stretched your pouch. Yes, I have had my band deflated and started all over again, several times. In the beginning I had lost a lot of weight, but as time went on I gained again. I was banded in March 2008 and had my first child April 2009; I haven't had successful weight loss since my first child was born. It's very depressing and frustrating to be going through this again.

Hello all had my surgery at mercy in Chicago May 7th. Do we have any support groups in Chicago?
