So, I am about 7 months into this. I have lost 75 lbs which I am pleased with. Then comes Thursday...I was walking to my car and had this real funny hard burp then immediate sharp pain in my stomach where my band would be for like 10 seconds...since then I have not had one stuck episode and i do not feel full anymore...help :smile: Dee

Ok, so for two weeks I have been counting down the days for my 2nd fill. I had my 1st which was only 1.5 and with no restriction, I was so looking forward to this 2nd fill. The doc came in tried for about 10 minutes and said I need to schedule to go to radiology which will be after the holidays (2 weeks) at least, and thats after and if insurance approves it...so i cried...i was so excited about this fill, it was such a let down. I need restriction, this is so hard to do without that "tool"...I am so afraid I will gain. I know I need to stay strong and positive, but man this sucks! I so needed this fill before Christmas... Please keep me in your prayers...I hope nothing is wrong. Dee

Thanks Chrissy! I thought maybe that maybe I was taking to big of bites. Thanks for the advice, I really appreciate it! Denise

Ok, so I am almost 3 weeks post op, and I have been eating for 1 week. Almost every meal, as I start to eat about 4 bites into it, I get this horrible pain in my throught, my mouth starts watering, and I have to burp and sit there until the pain goes away. Then I am fine to continue eating. Any ideas?:crying:

Hi all! I am looking for some tried and approved Thanksgiving Dessert Recipes. I will still be under 2 months, so no fresh fruit please. Thanks! Dee:biggrin:

My protein is the best. It's 100% whey protein from GNC. pro performance. mixes great, not chalky. I was banded on the 8th. so we are all close together. Good Luck! Try the shake from GNC. Oh and buy the shaker with the wire circle wisk...i promise it's like drinking chocolate milk!

I just had my surgery one week ago and I am having pain in my left side upper stomach. I can't sleep on my sides, it hurts too much. Doctor ordered CAT Scan. Anyone have similar problems? Help...I am freaking out...
