  1. Hi! I was suppose to have the same Dr you had, but I don't know what happened they ended up changing to Dr. Hollis. By uncomfortable you mean you get full too quick or are foods getting stuck? I just tried Jello earlier and OMG I felt it getting stuck, it finally went down but after lots of burping and gurgling. Jello was on the list of food to eat in the first week, I don't know what happened
  2. Thanks for the info, is that the pain I'm feeling? Cause it's swollen? I can't believe I didn't ask how big the band was! I'm gonna call next week and ask, all I know is it was filled with 3cc's but I guess it's not really much of the band can hold up to 15cc...Ugh! I'm so knew at this, can't wait till I have it figured out. I've read that some people have to loosen it cause the band is too tight, How in the world will I know that? LOL
  3. Just noticed Bashy611 had the same Dr as me!!! Yay!
  4. Wow Thanks for all the replies! Ok this my sound dumb, but what do you all mean about swollen? What part? I still have sum gas pains but it hasn't even been 24hrs since surgery, whn should that go away? I'm going to follow the diet to the T cause I've read horror stories of food getting stuck? I would freak out! Thanks again everyone and I love seeing all the weight loss tickers, I'll have to figure out how to add one
  5. Hello everyone, I just had my surgery this morning, and he said he went ahead and did the fill already at 3cc's...Is that normal or should I be concerned, or happy?? So far I'm doing great with liquids. Thanks for any feedback. Marla
