Disappointed

Had lap band on 8-8-06 lost 30 #. Thought it would go much faster. First fill not till 9-20-06 and am hungry all the time. Had a abscess form about 3 inches from port site-lanced but still there--HELP:"(

When before have you ever lost 30 lbs. in less than a month! ? You are way ahead of other lap banders that I've heard from. Don't be so hard on yourself. As for the hunger, try to eat low calorie, high protein and see if that helps. If you are eating sugar or carbs you are going to be a lot more hungry than if you are on the higher protein regimen. Get back in contact with your doctor if you still have that abcess. It's an infection and nothing to mess with!!!! Hope that helps. Pam

Thanks so much your site is beautiful
