Banded March 20th; first fill May 15th. Wish my current loss was faster but it's a loss so I'm not going to complain. I'm enjoying my way of eating (small portions, no breads, Pasta, anything that might get stuck) but I miss raw vegetables. I haven't yet reintroduced salad stuff as I've read many people have issues with lettuce, raw carrots, etc.

Otherwise, I'm pleased with my decision and have no regrets at all so far.

Good Moring March Banders,

I had my first fill on 4/2 they did not give me the amount of cc's they put in and my next fill is coming up on 4/30. My weight loss has not moved this month it keeps fluctuaiting between 211-214 so I am staying away from my home scale and will let the RN weigh me next week, hopefully this adjustment will give me a little more restriction but not too much :) Good Luck all and thanks for sharing your progress!!

      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.
