I had a problem with my band 2 weeks ago and I couldn't hold down solids. My doctor said it was because sometimes the walls of the stomach thicken and it tightens the band. I had no slip. He unfilled me 1/2 way to 1.5ccs. I promptly gained 4 lbs but had a blast eating for 2 weeks. On Monday of this week I weighed in at the gym with my new trainer. I weighed with my shoes on at 246. My doctor scale says 234. Long story short, I weighed myself today and after getting my fill on Thursday I am happy to report this week I lost 10 lbs. I am still in shock over it. I just started working out at the gym. I only got 1 extra day of cardio in and 1 weight day this week. This coming week I have 2 days scheduled with my trainer. So hopefully the weight loss will continue.

I wondered where you were, hadn't seen you around in a while. Glad you are back and things are better.

Thank you so much. I am feeling a ton better. I never experienced so much vomitting in all my life. I sucked not being able to hold down food. All is better now and I am back in love with my band. I'll be around more often now! Thanks!
