  1. Happy 41st Birthday kimmycrs!

  2. Happy 40th Birthday kimmycrs!

  3. 4 years has passed since you registered at LapBandTalk! Happy 4th Anniversary kimmycrs!

  4. I had a similar incident when I received my first fill last monday. I didn't actually faint but It's funny you posted this because I was telling my husband about it too. I just got really liteheaded as I walked out to my car after the fill. Interesting
  5. Another way I looked at it was knowing that as long as I wasn't eating a lot of regular food I had a better chance of loosing weight. I just got my first fill last monday and trust me you will eventually feel restriction.
  6. Ah Malby, I know all too well how you feel. I remember day 3 was the worse for me, but keep the faith. If I had to go back and do it all over again I still would. I was banded on 1/24 and it took me a good 7 days before I felt somewhat normal again. Remember everyone is different though. I know that feeling you're talking about too, it feels like a nauseated hunger? Just remember to stick with your liquids. I often felt better with the warm Soups. I don't know if your doctor allows it or not but mine allowed me to have cream soups as long as I strained any meat or veggies off. You'll feel better soon. Good Luck PS I also know the Water is a biggie. Keep yourself hydrated.:drool:
  7. I'm not trying to contradict anyone or even scare you but they started telling me that mine was "gas" from the surgery the first couple weeks after my surgery. However gas from the surgery doesn't stay in your body that long. So my surgeon has changed his tune now. I do have the pain in my left shoulder that you read so much about on this site but the weight loss has superseded the pain. It's different for everyone, as you've seen, but for me its more of an annoying thing than anything. It can be painful in the morning for me especially and if I eat a little too much my shoulder lets me know. But I've learned ways to get around the pain. Like for example; when I first wake up in the morning if I'm laying in a certain direction it almost feels like a huge air bubble is crawling up the front of my chest and it settles into my left shoulder. I simply hurry up and change my position or sit up all together. My theory is that it is some sort of gas caused from the band just not the gas they put in you during surgery. Id never experienced anything like it until having this surgery but like I said earlier... I wouldn't change a thing. Good luck and who knows you may be like others and never have that feeling.
  8. illion I feel the same exact way. That's why I got on to see if anyone else was feeling this way. I had planned to go back today too but, no way man.
