Way to go that is amazing, thank you for the post I am sure it will help us all to stay focused lassie

Welcome and go get them lassie

First “stuck” happened this morning. Was having my one egg and a slice of toast after church, before I was done I was praying to God not to let me eat any more toast. I could tell something was wrong had a little burning feeling in my chest made me stop eating. I have heard on here not to drink Water but after a few minutes I could not help it I had to drink something. It was not super bad it stopped fairly fast but still have like a little uncomfortable feeling. I will chew chew chew better. Lol Lassie

I agree it will get better ( banded 24th May ) the gas took a good week to feel better, Walk, Gasx, heat, Hang in there. lassie

Way to go- it took me a year- I was turned down four times by my insurance, I cried and fussed then dusted myself off and tried again until I was successful. Banded May 24th and so far loving it. First fill July 9th can’t wait. Good luck to you and keep posting your questions. The people on here are great even when the questions has been asked 20 times LOL Lassie

So your starting weight was 588 pounds and you lost 154 pounds. So now you are at 434 Pounds. That is wonderful good for you, you stay on the program and listen to your doctor.. Yes you have a long way to go but look how far you have come already. Whoot WHoot. Lassie

a stone is 14 pounds in Britian are you British?

the only concern I had was gas, have some Gas X at home and get up and move around when you can it will help. Good luck Lassie

what is the green zone ?

Oh my goodness girl maybe you should talk to your regular MD. Hope you are feeling better now, if not insist on seeing the doctor do not just take the nurse word.. I am not sure if I would stay with that doctor.

We will be thinking of you and praying lassie
