Was wandering if a group was ever started? I live in Dallas Ga.. Would love to meet up with others soon, Patricia

Well I am all about chatting with some new friends , I really need someone to talk to about my eating habits, it's horrible. Since my last fill on Dec 2, 2013, I can't seem to keep anything down. I have had problems slowing down... And everything gets stuck, even my drinks seem to make me sick. I believe I spit up at every meal. Not throwing up, just spitting out excess on too. I am not sure that's normal. Because of my fast eating!! Any advice

I am in Jonesboro, good luck!!!

Have lots of 2x and 1x shirts and size 16 and 18 jeans in the Georgia area

I need 14's desperately. Finally out of the 16s

Looking for someone to share food ideas, meet for lunch and chat and someone to maybe work-out with... Pat

I believe that I have 3 1/2 cc's in my band now!

Thanks everyone, I called today and was told try slowing down and smaller bites!! GUILTY i really am trying old habits are hard to break. Pat

Banded on Aug 29,2013 just had my 3rd fill and I have been experiencing cramps in my stomach area after eating or drinking any thing. It comes in waves, I have to spit out food at every meal. Still trying to SLOW down... is the cramping a normal stuck problem or something I should worry about?

Hello Georgia band girl!! How are you doing so far?

How is everyone doing so far? I'm ok it's been 2 months and I am still adjusting, had my second fill about 3 weeks ago and I am still getting daily stuck problems, I really need to learn to slow down and chew, really struggling. I have to spit up overflow at every meal just about. It's not a forced spit-up but the stuff that feels stuck in my lower throat. But I feel great other than that- weighed last night made it to 199- whoohooo super excited .

I also ha a hernia repair- I used dr gorjava in southern regional for my surgery. And we should meet up once a month for support, do you have a support class near you? Have one at sothern Regional once a month

Hello, I'm about 6 weeks out and I just had my second fill- feeling great. Hellooooo neighbor!!! Oh I'm from Jonesboro, and I need a support system myself. WELCOME

Ok this is what I'm feeling, so I DO NOT wash it down! Ok I will try this next time, I think I may not be taking small bites, or I'm eating to fast

What do you do when this happens, I kinda feel like I'm choking

That makes since, good to know. Lol I wasn't sure that is what was happening, so I tried washing it down with water, did not want to choke.

Are you suppose to feel stuck in your lower neck, top of chest

I ask my Dr what size band I had he just said large, and he put 2cc in it and said I will do 2 more next month.

I have lost 22 pounds so far :-D yehh

Hows everyone doing so far? I am not feeling any restrictions so far:-( looking forward to my 2nd fill.

Thanks for the tip, I love this site, great people and advice. Wonderful support. But looking forward to my next fill. :-)

I have only had my first fill, and I feel no different, ;-( I'm ready for some restriction, my dr said I received 2cc and he will put 2cc more in a month. That's so long to have no restriction, I think.

I will be glad to have a fill, I feel no restrictions and I eat everything that is soft, I feel like I am putting my weight back on. Maybe I need to go back to liquid diet

Hello we are neighbors I attend church in Fayetteville. Good luck and keep us posted. Are you excited?
