What Lyla said. You need to read post ( 9 Months Post Op by DeeDee72. ) Thats what this is about.

You gotta stop this. Not to freak you out any more than you already are, but this is only the beginning. Please just relax. You are going to go through a ton of emotions. I remember crying my eyes out early on because I could not eat something I cant remember what now yet I do remember being so sad at times. Me i am an obsessive scale person. But it sounds like you might be best not to weigh if its going to drive you crazy. And healing period is not BS. Hang in there it will come off I am living proof LOL, 3/11/10 Banded

I had a great fill last Thursday really good restriction. MY Dr has me fill on empty stomach then start with clear liquids and rapidly progress to regular food in the next 24 hours NO HOT liquid's during that 24 hours. HMMM NEVER HEARD OF Eating sandwiches but each to his own. We are all different yet the same. 3/11/10 Banded

Yes welcome to the land of bodily sounds. My family is used to it I think LOL. Any way its worth every minute . Good Luck. 3/11/10 Banded

I have flown may times since being banded and have been put into the screening machine many times and never had a problem or question in any way. My only problem was fitting in the seat. NOT any more though. You don't need to worry its all good.

Congrats it is a wonderful feeling to see 1 in front. Keep up the good work. Hope the fire gets better soon.

I also love the fact my daughter can wrap her arms around me. I found my rib cage this morning and made both my husband and daughter come feel them LOL.

To all of you cancer survivors I keep you in my prayer's every night. You are the strong ones.

I was told no pills bigger than a peanut. lucky my meds are very small. And for vitamins I take One a day gummies for adults. You are probably swollen due to dinner and pill getting stuck. Always a good idea to call your doctor for advise!!!!! Hope you feel better soon.

I had them really bad for a while. Not so much any more! banded 3/11/10
