  1. I am going to chime in with my brand of choice in all types of shoes. Merrill is the best ever for me and I have flat feet and all types of foot problems. I have been wearing Merrills for over ten years, and they last. I shop online at Footsmart.com they carry all the brands mentioned above.
  2. I just got my first fill today. Dr. T. told me that he was giving me 4cc today and in two weeks he would give me more. He said that he goes slowly until I get the right amount. I had no problem drinking the cup of water and stopped for a Jamba Juice right afterward. I was amazed, thought that I would feel some resistance, but didn't. I have lost 22 lbs since my surgery! Celebration time uh huh.
  3. I asked this question and never really got an answer. I too work as a teacher.
  4. I was banded 11/4/11 and have lost 19 lbs. I am doing well, but for the last week and a half I have had very frequent cramping and feel the need to eliminate. Is there anyone who has had or is having this kind of problem. I am awaiting results from my doctor on some tests to see if I have an infection in my intestines.
  5. Strange how we hear all he bad stuff and worry when we are not experiencing it. I too have not vomited ever since my surgery on 11/4. Yeah is all can say about that. I do have a problem that I am worried about, it is about my food's exit. Did any of you experience elimation problems? I am having very frequent BMs with terrible cramping. I have given stool samples to doctor, but am awaiting results.
