I was banded on December 10, 2010, I have lost about 40 pounds. I feel like I haven't lost enough, and I want to know how I can loose more. I get banded regularly. Also, does anyone else still have port pain? My port will get really tender and hurt so bad. Also, when I eat certain foods, my whole left side and band will hurt - all the way up to my shoulder. Is this normal? I do not stuff myself or eat the wrong food. I am really confused and just looking for some answers. Thanks

I have the same problem. We're is your port. Mine is on top of the belly button. I was banded same year in may. Had breast redux a month ago and everything in my body it's off right now including the band. Hope we can he each other
