  2. Happy 46th Birthday Poppy20!

  3. I am two weeks out and yesterday I had some taco soup and some rice and a little corn that was in the soup broth. Today I feel like I have lump in my chest just below the bottom of my breast bone and my stomach is growling for the first time since I was banded. I have already had one fill, my dr. filled me on the table, so I am not sure if I have caused the band to slip or if something is stuck or if my stomach growling is because of the measly bit of rice and corn that went with the soup broth has made me feel hungrier today. I have looked through the threads here and I would really like to hear what it feels like from someone who has had their band slip or knows of someone and what it feels like. I am scared I have messed up....Help!!

    Keeping secrets

    I am not comfortable yet telling people about my band. I am sure that if I feel like telling them I will, but so many people that I grew up with or went to school with haven't seen me in so long since I have lived all over the place the last 20 years and many do not even know that I have been fat. I know that the mental side of this whole thing will be coming to terms with your new self. You don't have to tell people now if you don't want to. Maybe someday you will though.. Good Luck!!
  5. Hi, I am new here but I have been reading the forum for a few weeks now. I am getting banded in December by Dr. Paul Cirangle in San Fran. Has anyone on here gone to Dr. Cirangle? If so, how was he and how was your experience? I am starting out at 246 and my BMI is 37. My goal is 140-145. It is interesting to hear everyone's experiences. The hope and excitement is great to hear. I am nervous, but I hope this is the beginning of a different life for me. A healthy, active life. To hear the optimism on this forum is inspiring. Thanks for the help.
