Congrats! Good luck!

It is completely normal for about a week or so. Congrats and good luck!

Congrats! Love hearing your success...

Congrats and keep up the great work!

My doc told me no bread. Believe me it was hard at first but I ok with it now. He said because of the gumming feeling it gets when it is wet and just clog the band.

Wow! Way to go and keep up the good work!

I'm not sure why docs are so different. I know it is hard but hang in there and remember there is a reason he gave you these guidelines. Good luck!

I didn't have a fill at my first appt but I did the second one. I was not to eat 2 hours prior and on liquids for 2 days and then mushies for 2 days. I was nervous but it was all for nothing. the NP felt around, gave me my fill and I was done. Good luck!

I had my surgery on a Friday and went back to work on Tuesday. I was still a little gassy but it was bearable. Hope this helps.

I wan't even aware of the extra. I would like to know too. Dr didn't mention it to me.

Sorry to hear about your situation. Alcohol has a ton of calories which could be a factor for not losing weight. Also if you are not getting what you want from your doctor then yes I would find another one. I have been blessed with my doctor and so I know there are good ones out there. Good luck!

I have been setting mini goals at 10lbs. So far so good but can't wait to find onderland!

My doctor gave me the go ahead at my 2 week post op appt.

Wow exciting news! Congrats on your success!

I believe rambling helps. I now your mother is proud and looking down on you every minute of every day. Keep on track because you are doing wonderfully.

Sip slowly. To make it taste a little better you can a some splenda. Congrats on feeling better and to a new you!

Yes you can stretch the pouch.

I never thought I would have to use a tongue scrapper too. I still use my periodically.

Wish you the best up luck! Thanks for sharing...

Thanks for the info!!

Sounds like you are eating too fast. Slow down and take your time. Wait a minute between each bite. Remember it should take you about 20 minutes to eat a meal. Good luck...

If you are really concerned call your doctor. The best thing is to walk around. This helped me so much. Good luck!

I weight myself almost every day. LOL.
