  4. Wow! You are brave! It didn't get stuck!! I had a couple of sips of you yogurt and a lil of cream of wheat and Had an anxiety attack I was so full!
  5. I've been banded since last Monday and I too was miserable! It's been a week and I still have pain in my shoulder but not so much. Sleep laying completely almost upright that helped a lot.
  6. I had surgery March 2, 2015 and I was gassy like crazy. Just getting over it! Had food stuck once and had to call 911! It really makes You panic like your having a heart attack! Just take it slow and eat very very slowly
  7. I'm on week two and am still on liquids! I had a stuck episode and I freaked out! Had an anxiety attack and my husband had to call 911! One more week of high protein soups and I'm gonna slow easing into puréed. I'm just so scared and reluctant????

  10. That's so true! Banded on March 2. ,15 and it's hard to not eat anything and the full feeling isn't the same As eating too much
  11. This happened to me on Friday and I freaked out! I thought I was having a heart attack! I'm just taking it slow stretching and trying to eat only liquids. This feeling made me want to take it out!
  12. All you ladies are doing so well with the band and I'm so scared to get malnutritioned or dehydrated. I'm oy 1 week in bug am I just tripping??? Someone ease my mind please
  13. I'm losing a lot since banded on Monday March 2,2015 but I think it's because in an only eat liquids right now. Also look in the mirror and compare pictures. That's a NON-scale victory!
  14. Honestly I do not think I want to fill
  15. I was told to chew on a piece of meat beef jerky and then just spitted it out
  16. I was Banded on March 2, 2015 and I was having the same similar symptoms not the spasms though or the hiccups. But so much so much gas you just have to take your gax-x strips and burp finally you'll be able to eat a little. I had an anxiety attack last night because I had eaten too much moving onto the puréed foods too soon. my esophagus and my stomach wasn't healed yet so now I have to go back on a liquid diet this whole following week until next week which I'm okay with because the liquid diet doesn't make me fell so full and constricted or whereas I felt like I was going to die I even had a call 911
  17. You can do it I'm only six days in and I'm certain feel hundred percent better already I just hope everything goes fine want to go back to work 65 pounds is more than I've lost in 12 years
  18. I have had my lap band for six days now and I am miserable not in the way of not being able to eat or anything but I have been having the worst anxiety attacks ever I don't know how to control them and it makes me feel like I want to go and get my band removed and just start exercising and eating right because I don't like this feeling it is awful and I start work on Monday and today is Saturday Has anybody else have this feeling and overcome and I really really need some great advice or someone to talk to
  19. I'm soooo gassy! And I have so much indigestion! I was banded on March 2, 2015!! When does this go away! I haven't popped for 2 days either!!! Someone tell Me what I do to ease this uncomfortable Pain! Sorry for the TMi
  20. I go to. Pho Vietnamese and Thai soups! They are more tasty and my dr states it was fine and next week I can start and puréed. I still have trapped gas and my indigestion is driving me crazy
