  1. Can a slip or pouch dilation heal on its own? If so, how and how long usually? Not long ago I had a bad episode with a hot dog and vomited 5-6 times and couldn't get even liquids down that night. Anyhow, I went on liquids for a couple of days and I was fine. Do you think it healed on it's own? I have had several more pb's but, I typically do fine if I chew and eat slowly? Any reason for concern? Thanks, Julia
  2. Why not one with an added laxative? Dependance? I also wonder why not fiber pills. I can imagine they would bloat? Thanks for the input.
  3. I swallow pills everyday. Is that still bad. I'm 5 months out????
  4. This is a fun conversation. I'm a 16 and days of crossing my legs comfortably are closer every Sunday when I wear a dress to church, but, my foot hits the back of the chair in front of me. I'm waiting for it to swing comfortably towards the floor. I thought I was the only one that thought of these crazy things.
  5. Happy day. I've lost 30 pounds since June 2nd. Does this sound slow? It does to me but, I sure feel better. Thanks, Julia
  6. What does it feel like when your band slips? Do you definately know it or does it have to be "diagnosed" ? Does pbing cause the band to slip? How about erosion? Would someone mind explaining that? Dumb questions? Hope not. Thanks, Julia
  7. Definately tell them the truth. It will work out for you. Don't let your fear of telling them discourage you. You can do it!!
  8. You're darling. Congratulations.
  9. I love it. Thanks for the laugh. Now, buy you some jeans and head back to the field. You go girl.
  10. What's a stricture? Thanks, Julia
  11. I want to join. I need the motivation.
  12. I pb about every other day. Is this too often? I find that if I vomit, it's not very much and I just spit up the last bite or so. Any of this sound familiar? Am I too tight? There are times when I can eat the world I just have to eat the right thing and eat very slow. Thanks, Julia
  13. You look so much younger. You probably feel younger too? You look fantastic.
  14. I have a question. I had my first fill about 5 weeks ago and have only lost 3 pounds. Sometimes I get "caught up". But, usually i can eat whatever. I feel like I am "dieting" to lose anything. I plan on getting another fill on monday? Wise choice?
