Too much cheese????

ok so here i am 3 months post-op, lost 35+ pounds and feeling pretty good. maybe tooo good.....so last week i used a straw for 2 days at work and suffered gas pains for awhile...got "stuck" and "slimed" (2 words that i never knew what they meant till now)...and here I was chugging along after 10 weeks and feeling fab, and BAM felt like crap:sad:

 

Now yesterday I had pain around my port ALL DAY...so much to the point I felt like I had just had surgery and had all that post-op swelling. So I had to get my mind going and think of what I had been eating (and to be very honest, I have been awesome with my eating since surgery)...but I was able to eat and drink so I didnt think anything could be terribly wrong....

 

So i realized that I may have had TOO MUCH CHEESE in the last few days....could I have eaten too much to cause lots of gas?? Does cheese cause gas? :cursing:

 

Really learning something new everyday with this band.....

I was told to not use a straw cause it will cause gas and burping...

Same-straw. Some just burp a lot...I couldn't burp to save my life before, now I BELCH with every little bit that goes through the band- liquid or solids. The 'gas pain' may just be the sliming/stuck...that happens. -BG Oh, and great WL!!!!
