Unhappy Richmond bandster

Hello Mary1966, I live in RIchmond also and was wondering How your weight loss was going. I noticed your date was 5/23 I was banded on 5/14. I'm down about 20. We started at about the same BMI also. I was 37.5. I just didn't know if this was a normal amount of not. I've had one fill and not scheduled for another until 8/5. My Dr. was Bautista @Commonwealth. I am always happy to see someone else from RIchmond around the same time as myself.

Susie

I have lost 23 pounds to date. It is going slower than I want, but I can eat better than others I see on the thread and don't have all of the getting stuck issues - until yesterday. I had an additional .6cc added on Friday and was fine until I took my hormone capsule Saturday. It swelled up like a kidney bean and stopped me up. After I slimed and puked all day (included puking up the culprit capsule), I went in this AM to have the .6 cc removed and am feeling bad from that horrible experience but have learned a valuable lesson. It is better to go slowly, eat smaller portions and be happy, than be so tight you are miserable and have to think about even every pill and anything you want to eat. How are you doing now?

Re: Richmond bandster

Hey Y'all,

I am a new richmond bander. I had my surgery on 8/21 (5 wks ago) and I lost 10 lbs but I think I have gained it all back bc I have had no restriction the last couple of weeks. I am not in that strong weight loss mindset yet. I am going for my 1st fill tomorrow and am hoping for some restriction. It looks like you guys are @ 5 months out. Have you found your "sweet spot" yet on the fills?
