OKKKK i need some help.. I got banded in june and i have 4cc in my band now. I just got a half cc about 10 days ago. I am asking if anyonehas ever had these feelings of when you eat your chest is soar and in your back between your sholder blades are soar. Its like a pain in the back and in my chest. I can eat at times but at other times i cant today i cant . It is very strange... Please tell me if anyone has ever felt this and please give me any advice. i know i should call my dr but i will tomorow. Just wnat to know if anyone has had this and what they did for you. thanks

I was getting a pain at the top half of my stomach right under my chest. It was gas. I laid down and took gas x drinking more water. I found it was the beans that gave it to me. I havent had it sense my dr told me it could be scare tissue if it is all the time. Good luck

Hey there and congrats... Yes i find it to be that waay to i have 3.5 cc in and i had mine on the 25th of june. i am almost to 60 lbs down and i eat chicken and tuna but i make it to a salad if you eat it plain it is really dry. ass a little mayo like low fat . I know it is hard it will get easier and i actually am suppossed to get one next week but i decided not to because i have a lot of restriction. But u have to chew and eat very slow. I was told no pasta and no rice. So good luck and remember small bites and chew chew ...

well hello pam - well i love mine i am 3 months tomorrow and i am at 50 lbs... It has been hard but i would not change it for the world. I was back at work after 4 days and workingout about 2 weeks later and been going good ever since. I would take back not eating enough fiber and being constipated but that has all changed now. I chose this because it isnt the last thingi could do if i do not suceed at this i still can get the gastric bypass. With this i feel like i am still working at it and really trying . It is a very easy thing to do i would not trade it for the world. Good luck and take care

Ok well i am 3 months tomorrow post op and i am 50 lbs down. Things have been going really well except got the last month. I am wondering is anyone else is having this problem.I have never been a regualr person when coming to using the bathroom # 2 and since this surg.. i go only about 2 times a week. I am wondering if anyone else is having this problem. I got very constipated and created a fisser ( if thats how u spell it) And well i am having surg on wednesday for that. SOOOOOOOOOOO ... It hasntbeen the greatest of months and i am not looking forward to that but i have been in so much pain and i am glad i am getting it fixed. So i guess i am asking with not being able to eat a lot and all of that is anyone else having these problems? I try to get my fiber in and reall do what i can . Just wondering ... thanks

I will have to say .... it is the best decioun i have ever made. It is so easy to do. I felt great and feel great. I know its hard but trust me it is well worth it when you loos your first pant size .. good luck

I took off wednesday and went back to work monday. I had my husbnad here and he was no help and he ended up leaving me alone so then my mom came and got me . I dont have a very nice husband. LOL but my mommy took care of me after that. LOL she had my son for the time being to . Hes 8 so he helped to . But to be honest MOMMYs are the best.

i didnt even weigh for the first week and when i went to the dr a week after and i was 16 lbs lighter.. i coldnt tell either.... so no worries u will weigh and poof it will be gone.

walk walk walk chipper you will do fine it sucks i had it really bad and lots of water and gasx... good luck and welcome aboard.

i went to a place that sold GNC type stuff and it is a chocolate protien powder that i have really liked . BUt i also chop up bannans that i have put in the freezer the night before and i use milk and i add a tbl spoon of peanut butter . I blend it up and i drink it on my way to work . It contains 1 gr of sugar and 33 grams of protein. Try it and see.

GAS .................. Its GAS.................. Walk around and drink more water... That was what i had .. COngrats

Mine took a total of like 2 1/2 months i know the only thing that they had a prob with was the report from the pshyc dr... i had to 150 .. so but it was real easy and most of it was waitng for the drs to send all the stuff in ...good luck
