Hey Cloe...my only advice about needing another fill is: if you are doing things "right" and you aren't losing 1-2 lbs per week (on average) then you may want to consider a fill. BUT, remember you can plateau for a couple/few weeks and then drop 4 or 5 lbs.....so don't get your fill too soon....as long as your losses average 1-2 lbs per week over a month you are likely okay.

I also am experience heartburn, but I had it before the band. I took a prescription drug call Prevacid. When I brought my meds to the clinic the day of my surgery, Maria pointed at it and said "You won't be taking that anymore". I was so nervous about the surgery, I never asked why. Well I still take it when I need it, but I thought that the reason for taking it daily was to prevent the heartburn. The acid is bad for your insides and from what I've read on this site that it's bad for the band.

Does anyone else take a prescribed antacid? Is it something that we are allowed to take?

Mandi's right, 60 lbs in 4 months is awsome. Fricken awsome, is that what you meant?

Seriously, all of you are doing so well, while I sit here and the scale is not moving. Can't wait for my first fill.

LOL..........I know, I know, I just have no patience. Im asking Santa for patience for Christmas this year. I was telling my mother yesterday, and she laughed and said, "god gave you everything dear, except patience". So I am asking Santa for some. Don't you think by the ripe ole age of 41 I would have learned by now? Again, you guys are awesome, putting up with my little meltdowns every few months.:phanvan Thanks Maria for the hug, I actually felt it. I LOVE YOU GUYS!!! :)

I'm not sure really, Mandi. I know when I heard that Dr. C gave Jude shit about what she was eating, I decided that I was eating to much junk food. Like quick on the go food. I went right back to good, good food again. Maybe thats it??
