Thank you! Appreciate the advice!

Hi there,

Does anyone have this issue when you first eat in the morning it hurts? I hate mornings because when I eat I feel like I am swallowing a golf ball. Could this mean that I am to tight? It does ease up as the day gets going but it takes me forever to eat Breakfast in the mornings. I am just not sure what to do.

Help!

You can do this! I know how you feel and before you know it this phase will be gone. Hang in there and keep your chin up!

Love it and I say right on! hehe

Thanks for the tip...I have a membership and noticed they have it but now I think I will check into it for sure!

Hi there, I'll be happy to help. I can tell you that I too did much research and talked to people that had it before I did the surgery. It has been the best thing that has happened to me. Anyway please reach out to me and I'll be happy to help!

I wanted to say You guys are Amazing! I am so happy that I have this site to turn too because you all helped me so much!...I ended up calling my doctor and then I was fine its strange...I had my fill a week ago and I was fine but yesterday was strange. I also told her how much I hate mornings and she told me to drink warm Water or tea so I drank warm tea today and wow it really helped. Anyway thank you all and they are keeping an eye on me cause I may have to go in and defill...Today so far so good! :wub: I hope you all are doing great!

I am not sure if I am in the green zone or too tight…If your in the green zone are you able to just take sips because to big of a drink hurts going down or comes back up? Same with food. What about gurgling…do you gurgle after each drink even Water? I also burp a lot with water when I didn’t before I am just not sure if I am good or too tight…help!

Aww thanks X! and Thank you all..WT you will lose that much you got this! This place is great to come too as well for support Wish you the best!

NP keep me posted on your progress!

I've lost 67 pounds and still have about 40 to go. It is alot of hard work One of the things that makes me mad people think all we do is get the band and thats that..but its not we have to still work our booty off and battle food. The only difference is we have a tool. I am very grateful for the chance to have this surgery. I get mad at times because I feel like I should be further along but you know I realize I should be proud of where I am...so to say We are all here for ya and please ask any questions you have

Hey there...The day I could start eating reg food or for us anyway was on Thanksgiving...let me tell you it was different...I too before that did ask myself why oh why...You hang in there and your gonna shine before you know it! Keep us posted on your progress!!

Hang in there don't beat yourself up...go back to your doc's orders and I think you'll be fine! Chin up!

I asked myself the same thing at the beginning...You are gonna be fine and before you know it you won't be thinking of anything. Before surgery man I drank sodas Pepsi to be exact all the time and I just couldn't get enough we are talking 4-5 a day. I thought NO way I can go without ...I am happy to say now I don't crave them and I haven't had any since Oct 22. Now if Only I can quit craving other things hehe...Hang in there

awww hun you hang in there. The first part is always the hardest believe me when I first had mine I wondered what the heck did I do and was super hungry. Once you start getting your fills and get in that green zone you will be satisfied and things will go your way. Chin up and hang in there before you know it you will start shedding those pounds!
