  1. I'm new at posting but have been banded since March 2006. I've lost weight about 25 pounds but have not kept it off. I randomly regurgitate maybe not daily but then again on some days 5 or 10 times during the day. My solar plex area is sore to the touch. I feel like it must be swollen. I've only had one fill - it was way too much nothing would stay down well except hard crunchy things like chips and cookies. I've actually developed worse eating habbits as a result of the band than I ever had before... any one out there with a similar experience?
  2. I'm not very swift on the computer. I know how to open my email and reply to them but that's the extent of my technical wizardry. So I've been banded since 3-7-06 and this is my first attempt to "post". It has taken this long to figure out how/ where to type text! I'm having lots of vomiting and my abdomen is very, very tender and I want to discuss this on this site...... Do I do a "thread" if so how do I create a thread? Is there a difference between posting something and a thread? I need a detailed, ELEMENTARY, explanation to use this site. Can anyone help me out? please?? don't take for granted I know anything... cause, well I don't. many thanks -

  4. Hi everyone. I was banded on 3/7/06 by Dr. Rumbaut in Monterrey Mexico. Was 230 to start and now 207. It's taken me so long to figure out how to post a reply...........I'm not computer savy at all. Now I'd like to start a thread? I think? What is a thread anyway? I need some help navigating this site if anyone's interested.:help:
