I NEED HELP!!!!!
As Michelle has already stated, until you get to the right level -- you are in bandster hell! It's hard because you had wls, but you fill like nothing is happening. I lost a lot of weight right before and right after I got banded, but it is not uncommon to lose slowly.
It's kind of hard to tell if why you are not losing weight because you did not give enough information. Just make sure that you are following the orders from your doctor's office. Go to the lapband forum and review the rules and eating suggestions for lapband patients. Hopefully the information that's there will give you some additional help. Once you get to the forum, look on the left hand side of the page for the links. I read all of this stuff over and over, and all over again -- it helped me a whole lot. I spent a lot of time on the lapband forum also -- asking questions and reading profiles. There's a realize band forum that has good information too.
Good luck and March 11th will be here before you know it.

THANK YOU MICHELLE FOR THE INFO. I AM A NEW MEMBER TO OH. I WILL CONTINUE READING AND LOOKING OVER THE REALIZE AND LAP BAND FORUM. I THINK THE BEST THING FOR ME TO DO IS WORKING VERY CLOSELY WITH THE DOCTOR AND NUTRITIONIST. I HAVE BEEN VERY CLUELESS IN WHAT I SHOULD EAT AND WHY. FOR EXAMPLE I HAVE BEEN DRINKING AND EATING AT THE SAME TIME. I THOUGHT HAVING THIS SURGERY WOULD OF STOP ALL MY BAD HABITS, BUT IT DIDN'T. AFTER READING SOME OF PROFILE ON REALIZE FORUMS , I HAVE TO MAKE SOME CHANGES TO GET THE SUCCESSFUL WEIGHT LOST. THANK YOU SO MUCH
