Lovelyband

Well its been 10 months on April the 10th. And I wanted to share new pictures. I hope that the show.

Wow! You look great . . but what's even better is that I know you feel so much better! I was banded in May of 2008 and I've lost 131 lbs. I feel wonderful. As soon as I get a chance I will update and enter pictures. Your an inspiration!

I had my second fill Jan. 5 and everything was going along well. This week, tho, I'm having a helluva time swallowing. Three weeks after the fill! The fill gave me restriction and I loved it. All of a sudden, I cannot swallow any solid food and just enough liquid. I chew everything like crazy. What's the deal? Anyone have any thoughts on this?

Hi, I'm new to this site today - I was banded May 27th, 2008 - I love my band! However, I'm experiencing the same problem. At the end of December I received a fill and three weeks later everything seemed to have thightened up more. I called my doctor and he told me for the next 3 days to go on full liquids. After the full liquids start with soft foods for a couple of days. If that doesn't help, I'm to call him on Monday and he will take the amount of fluid he put in the band out. He thinks that I may have eaten something that irritated the area and caused it to swell. We'll see.
