Hey there, I'm from Perth, Western Australia. I'm 31 years old, single mum of 3 girls. I was banded on the 7th of July 2011, weighing almost 99kgs. I had no surgery complications but did experience quite a bit of pain post op. I've had 2 fills and currently have 6.0mls in my band. I haven't experienced any reflux or vomiting, thank goodness. I can pretty much still eat everything i desire, yes including bread haha but my portion size is much smaller than pre band. However, I'm starting to stress about stretching the pouch cos I'm eating lots of solid food and don't eat as slow as i should. I have googled almost every site about this issue and much of the same info states that stretching the pouch usually occurs when the band is really tight and people are over eating so the food is just sitting there where as i don't have much restriction, food doesn't get stuck (another thing i haven't experienced LOL) so I'm quite sure that food is passing thru at a fast rate oh well who knows, if anyone can give me advice or have their own story to share, drop me a line or three...ok, ciao xo
