Hi Sue, It's not that I'm eating more, it is that some foods I can get down, some I can't, I have good and bad days, now what does slip actually mean, it moves, and if so then what happens? I have not had a fill in years, Im wondering if im a bit to tight. When I did go for fill they don't watch you swallow, but all the bad foods go dwon fine, like Cookies ect... better than real food!

Also I have been living on Tums lately, and never had to b-4!!!

Thanks for the info, Im ot sure what my problem really is, I got banded 10/2007, and I have lost like 75 pounds, I would like 25-30 more, but there are days I can eat, then there are days I can't. There are days I can eat something w/out any problems then if I go eat it another day, im running to the bathroom, so not sure if maybe a need a little unfill, or did it slip (i heard that would be painfull, and I have no pain). I ate more healthy b-4 the band, with salads and veggies, I dont eat veggies, and only once in a while I can do a salad, what is really strange I can eat better at lunch than for dinner...

Can you please tell me what the 5 day pouch test is?? Thanks, Mona

What is the 5 day pouch test?? Thanks

Hello, Merle I hear ya, I still have PB problems, some days I can eat better than others, I used to eat salads all the time b-4 banding, but now I have trouble with them, and veggies too! Seems like the junk food like Cookies go down better!! When I go out for dinner I have to make sure I know where the restrooms are. I have never been to a meeting but I would like to go to one. Im also wondering if my band moved a bit, because i get heartburn alot which I never did b-4, i have been taking tums on a daily basis now. Just a little afraid to go cause I dont want them to take it all out, but maybe next mo. I will go and have them check it out. Hope to meet you at a meeting sometime. Mona

Do you know the dates and times of up coming meetings I would like to attend to one? Thanks

Now that I think about it, I think I really had it done in 2007.

what is a 5 day pouch test?

Thanks, I didnt want to congrats the wrong one, and the Jennifer I know from Dr vernons is awesome, and easy to make appts. with. I go next week for a fill but I think I might still be good from the last one, I will see how the weekend goes. Thankd Again!

So does anyone know if it is Jennifer from Dr. Vernons office that is pregnant?

Good Luck with your first fill! Now is this the Jen that works for Dr Vernon that is Pregnant?? Thanks

Just a FYI I used to e mail Dr Vernon, got better responses.

I was banded 10/07, and the same with you I lost about 40 then I was to tight and let it go for a year, then I just went back last month got a fill, and feel much better, and back on track, so go get the fill and start again it will be worth it!

Count me in!
