Thanks for sharing I was thinking about going to another Dr I feel like I'm not getting no where like I when under the knife for nothing of course I'm addicted to food if not I wouldn't have got banded I need help to become healthier

Thanks for the words of encouragement I really do need to hear all of your stories this is really helpful to me I feel like there is hope

Had my surgery in May of 2012 and I only have 2 C C I'm getting so discourage I'm back up to the same weight I started with. My Doctor will only give you 1 cc a month and if you lost more than 4 pounds he won't give you any.

Thanks

Ok I posted that I wasn't losting weight awhile back I stop looking at the scale everyday and I got back on today I'm down 12 pounds since the surgery which was on may the 4th 2012. I keep up with the inches to and I always see improvement with those but I'm so happy now

No had no fills yet

Yes I'm still down 21 pounds in all but only lost 4 pounds since the surgery (may 4)

When did the feeling start? During a meal? After a meal? Out of the blue?

For me' date=' a sense of fullness or pressure at the back of my throat could be a satiety signal (that I've had enough to eat and should stop). When it feels bigger, like a lump, that's a sign that I've overeaten. As I understand it, the sensation comes from your esophagus. It means that food is sitting in your esophagus (which is designed to transport food, not store it) and your esophagus is unhappy about it and possibly spasming to get rid of it..

Are you able to drink Water? You could try taking a few sips of a hot liquid, but stop if that makes the lump feel worse.

If it gets worse and/or you can't drink clear liquids, call your surgeon's office.[/quote']

I'm able to drink Water

I felt this after a shake today but still feeling it

Thank you all

Thanks I talk with my dr today I started back on my Protein Shake today and I take a Protein shot too. Have any one heard of V shape shakes they have 12grams of protein per serving? The Protein Shots have 26 grams per shot but the taste is nasty.
