  5. Hello, So you have had a lot of burping with your lap band? I never used to burp much, I coulnt even make my self burp, now it seems like I do all the time since been banded, I hear its from being to tight but I really dont think im to tight, because I can eat but real slow and small pcs at a time. I go for a fill in 2 weeks I shall see what they have to say I guess.
  6. Hello, Hey I was wondering about your slipage, how does this happen, and what were your systems? Thanks,
  7. What happens when a band slips??
  8. Wow Im not alone, Im very tight in the am and it gets loose by late pm! I got a fill a few months ago and for a couple of days I didnt think it worked and now im still tight!!
  9. Also I Could Never Burp B-4 But Now Thats All I Do When I Drink Or Eat!
  10. i THINK YOU MAY BE A LITTLE TO TIGHT, IM AT THE SAME POINT, I THINK IM A LITTLE TO TIGHT BUT I WAS THINKING IF I JUST LOSE SOME MORE PUNDS THE BAND WILL LOSEN A LITTLE, THE LAST TIME I HAD TO GET SOME TAKEN OUT, NOW AGAIN, SO I WANT TO TRY TO LIVE WITH EATING VERY LITTLE AND LIMITED.
  11. I seem to be right along with you with around 40 lbs lost, right now I think im a little to tight, im going to give it over the weekend and see how it goes.
  12. I havnt decied about this last fill i got, it seems that i have trouble eating in the am and afternoon, night time seems to be ok, water goes down fine, its just sometimes i need to go see my friend the toilet with some solids still, it seemd when i get fills i need to stay on liquids and mushie longer, i go on the 7th, maybe i need an unfill??
  13. I was banded on 10/3 I have had 4 fills, last friday was the 4th and Im having h hard time with food, but choclate covered strawberries and truffles have no problem, I had a hard time with fish tonight, came all out! So seems like i will have to live on mushie and liquids for a bit, i dont want to get unfilled.
  14. I have a little cup beside me and im going very slow, she had made a comment when she was filling me that i still didnt feel to tight, so I think it is because of the refux thing, I think i better get back on the pills, she probably thinks im still on them, im afarid if i go to unfill she wll take it all out. When you get fills when do you start mushie food?
  15. Hello everyone, I had a fill on Friday and the water is staying down, well im not drinking much but I dont feel like it, and also I feel a little strange near my chest area after, I cant decribe it, Im going to give it another day and may have to call the Dr., I was taking pills b-4 for some kind of reflux, and I stopped, wondering if I should still be taking them, I will have to ask when I call into her.
