Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Band

A MyObesityTeam Member asked a question πŸ’­
Springfield, IL

Mine really isnt a question as much qs a statement. The Band does NOT reduce the size of your stomach!! It reduces the size of the opening to your stomach. Making smaller bites feel like much larger bites... your 'pouch' abive the band is not to be 'filled' as a stomach would; it is to slow your eating down.... banded since 2013.

Weight Gain With Heart And Cholesterol Medicine...

A MyObesityTeam Member asked a question πŸ’­

Has anyone (besides me) gained a trillion pounds after taking Heart and Cholesterol medicine? My Cardiologist acts like I'm nuts when I say my weight goes up every time I'm put on a new medicine and tells me neither one cause weight gain. I have gained 50 lbs in 11 years on this stuff. Does anyone else have the same problem? Or am I truly crazy? And if you have the same problem, what have you found to help? (I walk on the treadmill and lift weights already) Thank you...

I try to stay active everyday.
