Hello my name is Isabel.

Banded: March 15, 2013

Beginning weight: 276

Current weight: 242

My last visit was about 2 weeks ago, since my last visit I haven't been able to keep anything down. I'm not sure if that would be a good idea? I'm a little set where I want to be, if they un-fill I don't want to go back to my eating habits. Please help?

Thank you

Call your doctor ASAP. My doctor has someone on call 24/7, does yours?

That sounds too tight- and too tight isn't where you want to be. Too tight won't make you lose weight any faster, only put you at risk for a slip.

You talk about going back to your old eating habits- you have to remember the band goes around your stomach, not your brain. It's your job to change your eating habits, not the band's job. The band is there to keep you satisfied on less food for long periods of time, not change your eating habits.

Here's a link I think will help: http://drsimpson.net/fills/Lap-band-eating/lap-band-not-restriction/lap-band-and-restriction.html

I went thru same thing two weeks ago. Couldn't even get water down for 3 days. Went to dr that Monday and had lost 7lbs. Gained 4 back quick but think water weight and eating again. I want to know... If I had some removed... Will I be too full if they add removed amount back two weeks later?
