  1. My port is much lower than this area (it is to the left of my belly button) I was thinking maybe the underwire is actually putting pressure on the band itself?? I have an appointment for my first fill in 2 weeks, so I will ask about it then. :puke:
  2. I am 4 1/2 weeks post op and continue to have a very uncomfortable feeling created by my bra underwire on my left side, has anyone else experienced this?
  3. I have chosen to tell my family and a few close friends. I am also afraid of the constant judgement and monitoring. I figure when I reach my personal goal then I will tell the reaminder of my friends. That way I will be proof that it works and I won;t have to deal with the skeptics.
  4. Betsy and Terry, Do you both feel as though the "amount" of food you eat per meal is about the same as when you started with your band as it is at your current weight? I was just banded a week ago and am very confused to what the proper "amount" of volume should be per meal. I have read 1/2 cup to 1 cup to amounts in ounces? I obviously am working towards this point (still on liqueds, getting ready for mushies tomorrow) but any suggestions for serving sizes per meal would be a great help. Thanks, Kim
  5. Getting ready to start mine this Sunday and I am really nervous about it
