Recommended Posts

I am 8 months post op and have only 1cc in my band and am happy with it. I also had plication too though so I don't know if that's why I don't need much fill.

I also have a 14cc band and I'm at about 9ccs (I think) I feel like I'm getting close to the green zone! I haven't had restriction at all since about a month after surgery which was May 2 but I've lost 60lbs and maintained it for the most part. I've gained and lost a few pounds here and there. I'm hoping one more fill will put me in the green zone! My doctors told me with a larger band sometimes it's takes people longer to get to the green zone.

Thanks Sabrina. This makes me feel better. I go in for another fill on Wednesday; so here's hoping for restriction!

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
