I have not had an adjustment in 5 months and I have not lost weight either. I thought the band was too tight because I frequently could not swallow my own saliva after I ate until I threw up a lump of mucus. I was recently told to use Mucinex to get rid of the mucus. This helped. Now I think I should get the band tightened so I can lose weight. I can't decide if it is too tight or too loose. Anyone else having the mucus problem?

Well I feel I am to old to do this, but with my health problems, I don't have much of a choice. I have tried everything, like everyone else, but nothing works. I lost 80 lbs. a few years ago but gained it all back plus some, and i said "I will never be this way again". Well now I looked even worse. It's hard to see your self large sometimes. My surgery is Monday 4-28-08. I am very excited. I have been on liquids since last Monday, and I can't beleive I am not really hungry, but...

This time has been hard for me, the time between month one and month 2. Nothing has happened, well nothing in my head as well as on the scale. Actually, as my surgeon so kindly pointed out at my fill last Friday, I have gained a few pounds..... Listen here you SOB you have been on vacation for the last 3 weeks and that is why I had to wait almost 9 weeks for my first fill. Not that I am bitter or anything can you tell....

I've never blogged before so bear with me. I am scheduled to be banded tomorrow. I am nervous but ready. The liquid diet was hard for me because I don't eat a lot of sweets and this was nonstop milkshake type liquids. I ended up making some savory liquids with protein powder and organic soups and plenty of herbs. That helped get me through but I can't wait to have some chicken or tuna.
