  1. Thank you so much for that! There has been alot going on in my life and I do feel Satan trying to steal my joy. I really needed to hear something inspirational as I go thru these things and I appreciate your support!
  2. When I got a fill a few weeks ago I felt so good. I finally felt restriciton and immediately saw results and felt like I was flying on top of the world! Now it seems my restriction is gone as well as the wind in my sails.....i dont know what happened! Is this normal? I really dont have it to take another day off work plus borrow a car to go down for the 3 hr drive and then pay for the fill too. Any advise?
  3. But what about the discomfort? I can literally only eat about 1/4 cup and feel pressure. Is that what its supposed to feel like?
  4. So I went for my 3rd fill the other day. He added 1 cc and that makes 7 (the band was prefilled 2 cc's) Now its hard to eat solid food. I can eat like a few bites but it always feels like its going to get stuck so I stop. I cannot eat anything in the morning, even coffe feels like its not going down right. Thruout the day I can eat a few bites and feel full but there is an uncomfortalbe feeling there. I have lost 3 pounds in 3 days. I thought that if it was too tight I could not keep anything at all down and you have the night cough and all and thats not my situation. So how do I know if it is too tight or if that is the normal restriction I should be feeling?
