I have an appt on the 30th I think and if they didn't cancel it, im going in and if they did, I am calling after next week, this is insane, At least you have an excuse Rain, and even then u only gained 20lbs since december, I gained this in a week:scared2::scared2::scared2: help, I need a fill......

My fill appt is the 21 of april!!!!!

Really Val, your too tight, dont u just have 2 cc's? wow, I hope I can get 2 cc's and be good. He says every fill and unfill is different, you can be loose with 5 cc one time and tight with 3 the next and now that my band has been moved it may be totally different this time around, I just hope I dont have all the problems I had last time....whats going on with u val, do u work, is that what is going on? :unsure: hope all gets better...

Wow Val, you sound urgent! when did all this happen, was it sudden? Maybe your just irritated, do fluids go down ok? I wouldn't wait till tues. if your symptoms get worse or you feel it is unbearable, thats what i did and even though your band is ok, don't put yourself thru it. I will check your post later, doing a craft show till 3 pm.. call my cell if u need to 507-3636...hang in there.:) How's your dad doing?

hello ladies...sorry I haven't posted in awhile... It's been very frustrating to say the least.

I had my appt with Dr. Pham and was sooo happy and relieved with the way the office worked and the staff. I was in and out in an hour and everyone was beyond accommodating. A huge difference from the way I was treated at buff gen. Anyhow, I had to have a gallbladder u/s to rule out stones and will have my surgery the end of April. I wish I had gone this route from the start.

I am still dealing and processing what happened to me with dr. posner. I still can't believe no phone calls returned, even after several were left with his secretary.

Anyhow...hope to be on my way!

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
