  5. When just starting to feel restiction I remember wondering when I over ate wow is this a stuck issue or not.....now that I have truely had a few stucks....all I can say is...when you have it you will know....and it will surely help you to remember to slow down !!!
  6. Mine was really very nice..the Dr that did it was a old friend that had helped us adopting our children....so it was alot of catching up on the children and just making sure I knew of the risk of being put under.....Good Luck....Im sure you will do fine !!!

  9. I love reading everyones NSV....so sharing one more of mine...for the past 20 yrs when ever useing public restrooms I always wait to use the Handicapped stall.....reason being in a normal size stall my body touched the walls if I wasnt careful when moving.....well yesterday first time I used a reg stall ( the handicapped one was being used) and OMYGOODNESS i felt small in there...and crazy as it sounds...I just stood in there and moved and smiled....even laughing out loud a lil.......Lifes good !

  13. I think Colleen is right with sounds like you might have to slow down eatting....smaller bites,,,,I know thats how i feel also when im so hungry and I forget to go slow...or I take a big bite but tell myself i wil chew it good and not swallow it all right away.. ( gross sounding but im learning) If trying to slow down doesnt help Id call your dr....good luck !!!
  14. I will share my story about my weight loss and my children...I have 8 children ages 35 to 7 and my oldest children know my struggle of my weight and were very happy to know I was finally able to get the surgery,yet at the same time they thought "really mom at your age"...lol... .My younger ones were more worried about what mom was doing...but as I loose and am happier and doing more they are so happy to see the new me.....and last night while eatting water melon my youngest said to me....after he swallowd a to big a bite...mom I think Im having a stuck issue....OOO we all had to laugh.....as you can see I have been very open with them about this jurney....
  15. Your doing awsome....but I know what your saying...we all want faster... For me walking and more walking...and every chance I get Im doing some sort of movement that I didnt use to do.....even if its just stending on your tippy toes when washing dishes....or deep knee bends when folding laundry....Good Luck and with your motivation I bet you hit your goal !!!
  16. Cpvilla....sounds to me like your doing wonderful.... Keep doing what your doing and it will all come together once your healed... Good luck !
  17. For me...I to am just getting to green and have had more stucks then Id like...mostly because I forget to chew...30 yrs of old habit dont die easy...but I find moist chicken...meatballs...cottage cheese...chrackers...delux protein bars..apples with out skin...green beans..yogurt...very smll bite of noodles every now and then...and a english muffin if Im real careful and eat slow ! Good luck on your learning road...
  18. Sorry sent befor finished.... I have 8.5 cc now in my band and can honestly feel full after a normal size meal...also been having some stuck times when I don't chew...so give it time....congrts on your 30 lbs so far !!!!
