hey im new to the group been doing the mfp thing for a couple weeks and recently just got my band tightened again... i had removed all the fluid in the band for over a year because of the terrible gas pains i would get but i decided to give it a second shot... and so far so good thanx to a few suggestions by my new Dr

Being that my band is tight again i cant eat ANY bread, pasta, rice, and a few other things so its kind of hard finding stuff for me to eat that is healthy

ive learned i cant eat bananas, carrots, baked potatoe, and depending on the kind of meat and way its cooked cant eat that lol

i would LOVEEEEEEEE to add some lap band friends so i can look through your journals and would LOVVEEE any suggestions from anyone my diary is open to my friends only so please add me!!!

    Hey congrats on getting your fill again. I got the lab band 4 months ago and i recently had to have emergency surgery to take out my gallbladder. So for the last 3 weeks i have been with out a fill, i finally got a fill yesterday i only have 1.8cc's in my band again (its what i had before) and i am so excited i can start to lose weight again. I dont know how you did it for a year..... But any who welcome back and i have lots of great food ideas my husband and i take our favorite foods and try and find a healthy version :)

    Sorry to hear about the gallblatter but happy you got your full back and are loosing weight again!!! Please share te healthy food ideas!!!!!! :)
  • I was banded June 30th 2010, Im down over 150 lbs to date... I too had to have my gallbladder out 3 weeks ago this coming thursday.... Ohhhhhhhhh that sucked not being able to eat due to the pain.

    Welcome back, and congrats on the fill.... I no longer have insurance and so I cant get a fill and I desperately need one!!

    I have fallen off the "band wagon" as of late, so I am starting the 5 Day Pouch test starting today.... Im hell bent to get this thing back on track....

    Good luck ladies (and Gents)
