    Thanks to you both, I feel a lot better today and am able to keep a bite down at a time, but that is awesome advice. I went from a 3.5 to a 4 and who would have thought it would have made such a difference. Live and learn I guess. I see some are starting at 6 for their first adjustments and I can't imagine. I am so glad I found this website.

    :thumbup:Ok feeling better now and seriously inspired. Looking at everyone's pics reminds me of what I am doing this for. You are all amazing and an inspiration to me. I feel stupid for feeling so negative earlier and I realize this takes time and patience and that is something I have never been good at.

  4. Do you get sick for a while after your adjustments? I am on my 4th adjustment and I have been sick for a week. I feel your pain, I hate to eat around people because I constantly get sick. The thing I can say about the dating thing is be honest. My boyfriend was very curious and now understands that eating is difficult if not painful at times for me so we do other things.

    :eek:If I would have know how absolutely miserable I would be I would have stayed fat. I just got adjusted to 4cc's on Monday today is Friday and I am fighting to keep any food down. My stomach feels like it has been through a battle and I just want to cry. From everything I have read 4cc's is nothing but I feel like I am dying. I have talked to friends who have had this and they say the vomiting comes with the territory. Does anyone have any advice on how to keep something down?

  7. I am 4 months post surgery and just had my adjustment to a 4 on Monday and I am struggling to eat, how did you make it though this. Right now I hate this and wish I would have never done it.
