Congrats on your loss! If you're asking what I think you're asking, there are threads on the subject--does it actually get bigger or does it just appear bigger when the stuff around it has shrunk? At any rate, almost everyone seems to report a better sex life post weight loss--more energy, more flexibility, more interest from partners . . . And if that's not what you were asking, my apologies!

I'm on my way today! I am at the very beginning of my journey and just lost my 1st pound!! I'm going to celebrate EVERY SINGLE ONE....and you guys are stuck with me! LOL

Hi guys!!! Tomorrow is the big day!!! I'm a bit nervous, but good nervous,excited, so many feeling all at once! Tomorrow my new life beginning! Wish me luck, and as soon as I built some energy I will get back to all of yous! Good to those September Surgery we got this!

Inspiring!! My sw similar to yours. Your inspiring! Did you ever imagine you'd be done in 6m?!

I think it's the hanging about waiting for that the worst. I have been on the program since June 2016 but as it's on the NHS it takes ages. Have you ever regretted it ? Sent from my CUBOT MAX using Tapatalk

I use sugar free pudding powder to alter the taste of vanilla. 1 scoop is all you need. I was also told I could use liquid extracts, but not much due to the sugar content. Also use peanut butter/almond butter. It makes things taste better!

that happens when I've eaten too much or too fast. I hate it!

Hi, banded 11/30/2016. I don't know if this is the same thing, but a few months ago I had a similar problem after eating shrimp. I didn't chew well enough and was probably eating too fast (one of my main issues!). A restless night followed by the next day a feeling of an uncomfortable "lump" in my throat even when drinking sips of water. I got in to see my surgeon that day, he sent me for an upper gi. No blockage was seen by that time. He had me do liquid protein and soft foods for 2 days just to calm things down. I have been fine since then. He truly believes that it was a bit of shrimp temporarily stuck. I don't know what you ate before this happened. He told me shrimp is a problem for a lot of patients, but I can eat it if I chew thoroughly like we are supposed to. I hope this helped, best wishes for your journey!
