    sore port

    Yes, I feel it too. I just figure there is something foreign attached inside me so of course I am going to feel it at times. I really feel it when I bend over or I am washing dishes & my tummy hits the sink. Like right now when the edge of my laptop is on my belly as I am typing. I think it's ok.

  5. Yes, He did my band last month. All went well and his staff was and is wonderful. Best wishes for a fast recovery. Hope this helped.
  6. Hi there, I was banded 8/6/09. Since our dates are so close I thought I would join you if that is ok. I have only told less than a handful of people also. I am walking every morning for 1 hr and almost every evening. I am determined to lose lbs.

    First Fill!

    I had my 1st fill yesterday. I was really scared. I had to wait 4 hrs. I was hungry, kids 1 & 2 were cranky & hungry. I could only take 2.6 cc. any more & I thought I was gonna die. I could not watch. I am afraid of needles. So I closed my eyes or I stared at the celing. It was really not painful for my local or the injection. It will be a month for me on the 6th and I have lost 22lbs. I will go back on 10/15. I just pray that I can stay focused. I do love the shakes because I make my own in any fruit or coffee flavor I want that day.

    HELP cant sleep

    I had the same problem. Took my liquid Tylenol and after a week slept fine. I can even sleep on my stomach again. Use soft pillows under your tummy if you need to. It really helped. Good Luck.

    Which shakes are the best?

    I have been using Isopure creamy vanilla powder whey protien. I always blend it with ice and change the flavor by adding coffee, banana, any berries, yogurt or chocolate & skim milk. I haven't got tired of them yet and my husband & kids keep trying to drink them. I have to fight then off. This is way cheaper than the ready to drink cans & this big tub has lasted a month so far. Hope this helps. I am a nubie too. Stay focused.
  10. Mine gurgles all the time. I was watching TV with my husband and he asked me if I needed to eat? Sunday I was at a matinee and you could here my stomach 3 seats away. I didn't know if I should laugh or be emabrassed. They passed me some trail mix. Next time I'll see a action movie to drown out my stomach.
  11. Hi there, I just joined today because you blogs are so encouraging and uplifting. I was banded 8/6 and go for my 1st fill 9/4. I am kind of scared. But I hope it will stop me from feeling hungry. I am not setting numbers either. I just want to loose at a steady pace and try not to get discouraged. I am walking 2x a day morning & night at least 45 min to 1hr. Well God Bless & Thanks to you & all the blogers and your helpful information.
