Krista please don't give up. I know that it is hard now but there is always a way. As all these ladies have said there must be another co-signer or lender that will be able to help you. I know exactly how you feel, I felt like the band would be the only thing to help me lose weight, now I am less that ten pounds from goal. Getting the band will be the best decision you eill ever make so don't stop fighting.

Hi everyone I wanted to know if anyone has had surgery with Dr. Gutierrez Romero in Tijuana Mexico, I visited his website and I liked what I saw but I am not sure If I want to go and have surgery with him. I know that a majority of patients who have had lapband with Dr. Ortiz have gone to Cosmed but I went to their website and was not too thrilled with the pics that I saw. I want to get a breast lift and maybe augmentation. I am almost at goal im 176.5 now and my goal is 165. I have lsot all fullness in my breast. I have basically been approved for financing for the surgery and wasn't sure where to go. Any help that you guys can give would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hey JanJan thanx for visiting my page adn adding me as a friend, I was banded on October 23 2009, when I go in for fills they tell me that I can not have anything by mouth 8 hours befor fill and no liquids at all four hours before I come in. Then you are only supposed to have liquids for two days after the fill. I go in for my fourth fill on the 22nd of Oct. Good Luck : )

Hi , I have 8.1 cc's in my 11cc band. When I got my last fill, I don't even remember how long ago I thought it was too tight I was p'bing more than I ever had with the band. I thought about taking some out but I didn't I started chewing slower and babying my bans a lot more. I am starting to see the restriction loosen, so i will be getting a fill soon. But having eight or more cc's depends on the person. Some people have up to 11ccs and still have no restriction.

Anyone else losing hair??
orockz99 replied to jen1teacher's topic in Gastric Band Support & Discussion
I have been losing my hair like crazy. My hair was not that thick to beging with and it was coming out in big clumps. I knew it was a side affect of the surgery, and I knew that I was not getting enough protei. I have just started to add more protein in and I have been eating too much carbs and not enough protein. I was struggeling to eat protein because a lot of it wouldn’t go down. Like eggs and chicken wouldn’t go through the band that well… they still don’t, but I try to take the time to eat stop and then go back to eat more. -

Hey everybody, I wanna be a part of the Friday weigh in crowd, its gonna be hard for me to only weigh in once a week, I usually weigh myself every morning and twice when I go to the gym, before and after I work out, I know I'm starting late but I figured it would be a good idea, my starting weight as of this morning was 193.5

THANK YOU VERY MUCH. I fell the same way about this fill. I hope I will not need another one for a while. The journey to my fill center is long and arduous, and I am not looking forward to doing it again for a really long time. I am glad that I joined this blog and have support from ppl like you, I means a lot to me.
