Hi---due to some weird hernia problems, I now have a lap-band and no idea what to do. I could use some pointers other than very, very small meals, heavy on protein, etc. They say they may be able to "fix" it ==after they "fix' some other problems.

In the meantime, I am very frustrated--I could stand to lose the weight ( and a bit more, actually), but how does it stop, what do you do?

This has been going on since Nov. 08 and the weight loss has slowed down somewhat.

Am also not too proficient on the computer----

thanks mjawc

ok...so im not really all the way understanding...ur situation...so u only have lap band due to a hernia???? so did they just placed it in u without schooling u on it...or asking u if u wanted that particular procedure.....???

Thanku (AHBO8) I thought is was just me,I have no clue of what (mjawc) is tryn to say?

Yes, I dont get it either. They inserted a lap-band due to a hernia issue? And you didn't know? Please clarify.

I think what the poster is trying to say is that the hernia is causing a "lap band" sensation. That was what I understood.

Is this correct?
