Thanks for the Comments, I am glad to know that this is quite normal....

I had my first fill last Monday and actually feel some restriction. My questions is, when I eat Breakfast my first bite always gets stuck. It doesn't matter if I am eating string cheese or soft scrambled eggs it gets stuck. It eventually goes down, is this normal? By evening I don't have an issue eating dinner..... Thanks for the input:rolleyes2:

I was suppose to have my first fill yesterday but my Dr. had to cancel because on an emergency, so now I have to wait until Monday..I am kinda bummed because I am hungry, but am close to being down 30lbs which is Awesome!! How are you doing??

Josie: The boys and I are so glad you like your harness and we think you are adorable!! Deuce says : Josie you will like me better than my little brother, will you be my girl??

Congratulations on finding someone to do your surgery. I am new here and just starting my 6 month physician supervised diet before my Insurance will pay for surgery, but I just need to be patient and know that it will happen!!! Good Luck!!

OMG!! Hi Stephanie, it is Bobbie from SM. I knew you had lap-band surgery but just didn't really think about it until I saw you and Josie on here. I am just beginning in this journey. I went to my seminar and now have to go on the 6 month physician supervised diet and then hopefully insurance will pay for my surgery:thumbup: Wow 81 pound so far!! You are doing fabulous:thumbup::party:

I had my seminar on May 14th and am going to my Primary Care Doctor to start my 6 month diet program tomorrow. I am so excited about eventually having lap-band surgery. My husband is so supportive and that makes all the difference in the world. I am looking forward to learning from all of you on the forum!:party:
