When I get stuck I go bring it up because it hasn't gone down and most of it is mucus is this normal?

I am the exact same way. I didn't know there was a name for it. Does this happen even when you may need a fill?? I don't feel full when I eat. Should I schedule a fill if I don't feel full?

I've been getting some shoulder pain,between chest and shoulder. It feels like when I got out of surgery and had gas. Is it the band and is it normal? It happens out of the blue.

I had RNY originally and lost weight fast,but regained fast too. I now have band and the fact that I can adjust it if I start gaining weight back makes me feel better about my choice. I'm sure you'll make the right choice.

I'm in Omaha ,Ne. I have 2nd fill the 27 and I'm so excited about it. Hoping i'll feel something. No,they don't support me and constantly make comments about what I choose to eat and not willing to try my foods.I guess they are to healthy for them. Sometimes I wonder if I should just live on protein shakes. They're easy to make,not much clean up and provide me with protein I need. It's so much easier that way until I get my own place. I agree with what you said. I didn't go through all this for nothing so I need to make these changes for me and my health. Although its Easier said than done ,but no one said it would be easy. In fact there are warnings everywhere that it isn't easy. Thank you for responding. That meant alot. Hope to hear from you soon.

I to need help. I drink all day my crystal light,but problem is I even drink when I'm not suppose to around meals. I take mess that make my mouth dry so I'm constantly taking sips. I know I'm not suppose to do that . How do I break this habit of drinking before during and after meals? What are some EASY meals to prepare myself when you live with 9 other people and will offend them if you don't eat what they prepare?

DISCOURAGED AND DISAPPOINTED PLEASE HELP!!! I'm in need of a buddy/mentor. I had surgery 1-31-12 had first fill March 6 and have no clue as to how much was inserted. My problem is I feel no restriction and hungry a lot of the time. I live with 9 other family members who are not supportive. I know I need to make better food choices,but what do I eat? I have a 11 yr old girl and a 2 year old boy but they eat what is made by family as I do,but shouldn't.its difficult getting around to make myself food since things are sctttered all over the kitchen from them cooking their dinner I have no space and if I did. What do I make? I don't know what to do because I don't want to offend anyone by not eating what they prepared,but I can't keep eating these foods and expect to lose weight. I also don't excercise like I should and no longer have no excuse to take a walk since its been so beautiful outdoors. My goal is to run,yes run a 5k but I've never ran in my life,but it looks calming to run I just don't know where to start with that either. I'm lost . I've got to lose this weight. Please help me get through this. I need to be held accountable and have someone or people check on me often for me to report on my progress so I can make this a success.any suggestions will help.
