  1. first fill was done last Thursday and boy am I feeling the restriction so far...just had solid food and i hate the tightness...the burping is unreal too. I can say that I don't enjoy eating as much as I used to...but I know it's worth it...
  2. got my first fill yesterday...took the Doc several tries to find my port...did not have a good time...LOL I was hungry alot today....wondering if its even working?
  3. NOTHING to be nervous about...Just think of it as the first day to your new life! I am almost two weeks post op and I am soo happy I did this. Best decision I have ever made! Just take it one day at a time! Good Luck!
  4. I have one week of liquids left then onto mushies...I lost 7 lbs so far..but i know it's because of not eating regular food. I get my first fill on July 23rd...So glad to meet so many great people here!
  5. Can I play too? I'm newly banded 8 days. I live in Woburn. My family is kinda on board with me...but I need to be able to talk to people who have actually done this and know where I'm coming from...
  6. Well, I'm a newbie 8 days post op. but i'm in the 100 plus club. 297 married 17 years with two daughters! I am more than willing to lend an ear and hopefully get the same support...this won't be an easy journey
  7. I get my first fill on July 23rd and I'm very excited about it!!
  8. i was banded a week ago and with me it's burping...real deep burps that feel like they're coming from my feet!
