  1. I have the same symptoms except I'm very tight. Last night I propped up a bunch of pillows and slept with my head and chest higher than the rest of my body. It's uncomfortable but it did stop the reflux.
  2. Katherine & Alexandra, Thanks for the advice, I was feeling guilty that things were going so well. I was full open and ate with no remorse. I had my first adjustment recently and still am apprehensive. CHHS:)
  3. 396power, What is a VG band ? & does your fill make it easy or just no choice but to be on the liquids? CHHS
  4. No symtoms, just scared because I haven't had my first fill, and I'm eating like normal. I seem to be pushing my luck. Everybody says stick to the program, but If that was so easy I would have never got the band. Thanks CHHS
  5. Hi all, How do you know if your band has slipped?
  6. Thanks, I get paranoid.
  7. Betty, Thanks very much, I was starting to worry.
  8. I had my surgery on April 17, I was on the liquid diet, started with the mushy food, quickly noticed I had no problems eating. I started eating more & more with no problems. I have yet to have a fill, but I'm wondering is this normal? I've been eating just like I was before the surgery.
