    finikey band...

    Last Sunday I went through a day feeling like I was in banster hell..... just wanted to eat eat eat...... this Sunday started with a tooth ache so I took 2 ibraprohins....with my coffee... then I had a yogurt and could eat only half the cup....we were running late for church so I didnt think much of it...put it in the fridge for later... Got home and started lunch ate the yogurt i didnt finish earlier...i felt fine... I dished out lunch and 2 bites into it I knew I was stuck..... it lasted ALL DAY....i retched and sat in the bathroom most of the afternoon and night... A few times I tryed getting some Water down and it hurt even more till it came back.... Finally i got to go to bed and i hurt most of the night...and even had reflex....which I have never had.... So this morning i tryed a lil coffee...it went down but i could feel it going down.....i had a lil yogurt and it was ok to...i did it it very slow... I did call my Doctor...he is off today but said he could be in the office at 3:30 he would like to see me.... So I am going to ask to have a lil removed from my band...i have had one to many stucks.... even though I know its my own fault for not paying attention....

    would you do it again?

    My only regreat is not having it sooner !!! I honestly had NO pain....worse pain I have now is when I try to eat like Im not banded and take a BIG bite or eat to fast....and I get that stuck feeling.... and thats my own dumbness !!!
  8. Hello.... A year ago today I was banded.....and it has been the best thing I have ever done for myself and my family...It gave me back happiness that I didnt even know I was missing....now simple pleasures are getting dressed and not needing to sit down and rest...bending over tieing my shoes...wearing pants with zippers....buckelting my seat belt....fitting into a resturant booth...wanting to walk every day...loving how proud my husband and family are of me....not feeling like every one is looking at me as I walk into a room saying WOOO look how big she is....Having so much energy now..... Last year I was so ready to get this done I left for the hospital extra early and my sister and I went to the local park and I walked a mile before going into the hospital....I was determined I was going to do it and d it right....I just want to thank everyone on this furum that has given me words of encouragement..when it got tough....and looking back to some differant storys I have read on here....let me tell you some times some one writes about a difficult time they are having...and I can remember and I thank who ever it was that basiclly told me to suck it up...I thought I wanted some one to say...oh yes you poor thing I understand.....but they didnt....they told me JUST DO IT.....and I was a lil taken back for a day or so.....BUT...I knew they were right so here I am a yr later...120 lbs gone !!!!
