Hello Carmen:) So far I think I'm doing good, i get a bit paranoid at times though... thankfully i have never been stuck or have had to throw up... i do burp though (reg. burp) i take it as my body telling me to stop eating, and it feels good too! does that happen to you? And yes i think it's just the holidays
Are you taking any meds/vitamins? Sore how? -
Hi Carmen, I noticed that you and i were both banded on the same day!
I would love to keep in touch with you, and share stories and what not! hugs

Sometimes when I'm finished eating I burp. I'm able to eat just fine, I have never been stuck (knocks on wood) but I do have to say that when I burp it feels good, I feel relief. Is my body trying to tell me something (by burping, lol)... is it normal? Please help :thumbup:

how are you doing? -
Hello Everyone, Ok so I'm 2 weeks post op and have already lost a lil over 25lbs. I feel my stomach growling so I eat, but I'm not able to notice/feel when I have had enough, so I just eat about 5 "spoonfuls" just to be safe. How do you know when to stop eating? thanks!
