  2. Thats good to know. I was stuck once. I ate a dont hole and it got stuck. I did a few dry swallows but it didn't move, so I did a no no and sipped some water. Omg! Everything I ate came back up. I'm glad I burp now lol...
  3. When I chew gum or eat hard candy I burp a lot. It doesn't matter what time of day it is. I wonder am I getting to much air in my stomach.
  4. Thats how I was. I didn't gain weight but I wasnt losing either. I had my second fill, and I have some restriction but not like I want. My surgeon told me that if I can eat a whole burger patty, then i should come in for a fill. I'm at 6.2cc's In my 10cc band. I'm gonna get another fill at the end of the month.
  5. Ooooh thats what it is. I do get that from time to time. I just thought it was normal. I have it a lot when I eat strawberries. Mayb I shouldn't eat them. Thank you.
  6. I was banded on Jan 20, 2011 had my first fill and did not feel restriction so I had another one on the 14th of march. I have restriction but not like I think it should be. I started out 264 I'm down to 228.4 I luv the #'s. I am however is gonna schedule another appt, to get a third fill. Oooooh I have a 10 cc band and I have 6.2cc's in it. I'm happy with this.
  7. I always here about pb-ing. Exactly what is that? Is it the same as being stuck?
  8. I walk at the mall every other day for an hour, I also dance with the dance central game for the xbox 360. It counts my calories burned. Its a lot of fun.
  9. I got my band Jan 20 2011, I'm reading about ppl whos ports have flipped or bands have slipped. How does this happen?
  10. Thanks for all of the advise I have gotten, it turns out that I wasnt getting enough water and vitamins in. I'm feeling much better now.
  11. That explains a lot. Thanks for replying to my question. I'm starting my vitamins today. :-)
  12. I'm two weeks pos op, and I wake up feeling tired. I'm just wondering why, and could it be from lack of nutrition? How can I fix this? I have lost five pounds since the surgery! :-)
