I was wondering if the doc will give me my first fill even though I have lost 21 lbs in 5 weeks? I go next week for my fill. I do have some restriction but not like I should. I have been waiting 6 weeks for this and I will be mad if he says no. If I can lose 21 lbs in 5 weeks with barely no restriction, I can't wait till I get full restriction..... Jennifer

I am hoping that I get a fill on 9/23 too. So far, I've lost 26.1 lbs but I don't have much of a restriction at all. Sometimes at night, I am tight but not much. The gas is killing me tonight. Guess I shouldn't have eaten that tuna.

Are you still having gas pains in your shoulder too? I am too. It is worse if I am hungery or if I have eaten to much. I am damned if I do and damned if I don't. LOL Granted I don't get the gas pains as bad as I used to but as soon as I think they are gone forever, here they come back....

My daughter had surgery two years ago and she said that for a whole year, the gas would come & go. Just when she thought it was over for good, it would come back.

I just know it is a miserable feeling!

BTW, thank your hubby for me for serving his country and tell him that I for one appreciate his service. Good Bless him & all our troops wherever they are.
