  9. Love to hear stories like my own because it makes me feel less like a failure. Keep up the good work. Slow and steady wins the race. Lets keep in touch with each other for support. I am also on mfp. My screen name is alerker.
  10. I think you did great, considering you had no fills. On 3/20 it will be one year for me and I have had 3 fills and am down 50 pounds. I am a little disappointed I thought it would have been more. But it was 50 pounds I was never able to lose before so really I should be happy. Keep up the good work.
  11. oh god now I feel stupid, I never noticed that. Thank you

  16. Thank you for your responses to my burping issue, I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one with this issue, I also get the hiccups too. If it is because of restriction I will live with it, the end result is worth it. I am a little jealous of your great weight loses but at the same time I am happy to be down the 40 pounds I have lost so far. The holidays will pose a little bit of a challenge but I think I am up to the challenge. Keep up the good work, and lets keep in touch from time to time.

  20. Hi Everyone, it has been 8 months for us March Bandsters. How is everyone doing? I am now down 40 pounds I struggled here and there but my last fill has helped me to eat less. I have to be very careful what I eat and to be sure to chew food thoroughly or else it leads to a stuck episode and that is not pretty. I have a question for you all. Is anyone experiencing a burping issue, I seem to burp all the time now and sometimes I get this feeling of air bubbles escaping up my esophagus? Just wondering if I'm weird or not??? I would love to hear from you all and know how you are doing.
  21. I get them also it is usually a sigh that I should stop eatting. Although they can be annoying think in the positive. These hiccups are helping us to eat less and lose weight.

  24. Just want to share something.......since being banded in March I have lost about 31 pounds I have struggled a bit but am happy with myself. But what I am excited about is that I got on a plane yesterday and for the first time in over 10 years I did NOT have to wear a seat belt extender, woohoo what a great feeling I can't even tell you
  25. I'm also fighting the 3lb up and down. Just have to make it pass the 4th of July then going to also do liquids for a day or two

  27. Thank you, I already belong to My Fitness Pal, belonging and tracking are two differant things. lol I was tracking everyday after my surgery, I have just gotten a little lazy about it lately.
  28. Hi Everyone, I haven''t been on here for a while. Seems like everyone is doing well. I have had 2 fills for a total of 5cc's. Over the last 4-5 weeks I have had about 3-4 stuck episodes. So after this months Dr visit it was decided that I didn't have another fill on this visit but work on my own behavior. I know sometimes I don't make the right choices so I will be working making lifestyle changes. My Dr and I set some goals. 1) to lose at least 8 lbs by next visit 2) start to track my food more 3) excersise at least 3x a week. Summer is a challenge good luck to everyone
