  1. Man, these responses are making me very nervous :/ Got a fill Thursday morning and have had a cough/sore throat ever since. .. throat soar like something is caught and is irritating (itching) the back of my throat. No vomiting, just constantly "clearing" my throat. I'm at 7.5 cc of a 10 cc band. I was banded July 18th of 2013 and this is the very FIRST time I feel like the band is working perfectly and I am in the green zone. ... I see reflux listed on here, but I've never had a problem with that either. Is a unfill my only option? ??
  2. Oh my gosh, so much easier THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!
  3. Ladies, how do I add you with just username and not email? Help. ...
  4. Well my email is thestaubhouse@msn.com. ... I would welcome ALL the help I can get getting back on track!
  5. I am in the same boat. .. How do you add friends on MFP? The only page I found said add from contacts or an email address. ..
  6. Thanks so much! Just what I needed. .. As far as fills, I'm at 7cc in a 10cc band. They tell me that that usually is where the "sweet" spot is for someone that started with a lower BMI like me. .... I feel close-so close. I have had consistent fills, just frustrated I'm not there yet. I haven't been making sure protein is first. I'm sure that is part of the problem. I have restriction, I just have to make better choices. And no, I am trying to find motivation to work out, but I'm struggling in that area for sure. ... Going to visit this board more and try to refocus. ... and remember why I went through all this in the first place
  7. I was banded on July 18th, 2013. I am only down 25lbs and am struggling to not only stay motivated, but to not be discouraged ..... I am overwhelmed with my failure to be consistent and even more frustrated that I am in this position when it went so well the first few months
