I know the pain your meaning I get that also if I over eat or eat too quick The pain I get is on the left side middle.

I was wondering if anyone experiences pain on left side and seems to be relieved with a burp? Ever since I've had the band (2012) I burp like its my job crazy big huge burps. But lately this pain on the left side has started just wondering if anyone else has this too ????

As soon as I feel stuck I stop drinking and swallowing then I start spitting I usually have a cup or bottle and spit Sometimes it takes 20 minutes. Sometimes I'm spitting for 2 hours...I have learned the hard way...

This is where I was banded also and I am so frustrated right now. The reason I went with clinic was the ongoing support ugh so mad!!

Hi Karen I was banded in Oct and I now burp like its my job lol. When I eat if I pay attention for my soft stop (which I try to always but its hard to get used to) I do burp or sigh but any other time I burp all day now. I think this is an individual thing but a lot do burp. ~Colleen

So its been almost 5 months for me getting the band and I am still living the journey. Something new every week comes up either I ate too quick ate too slow didnt chew enough etc. I have lost around 50lbs hav'nt had a fill yet but I think I need one soon,increased my exercise and and feeling great.There are days that I think what the heck did I do ? and there are other days when I think thank goodness I did this. So how are y'all October 2012????

Thats so funny I am too!! I havnt had a fill yet and Im exercising like a crazy women LOL

I made a yummy dish tonight I used shrimp cherry tomatoes cut in half onions Cook in fry pan with a little olive oil then before done add 2 TBSP of Feta cheese mmm it was good (you could add more or less feta) I added brocolli and cawliflower on the side Delish!!

No fill yet... I have restriction which is good if I end up eating too much or not chewing enough I start sliming its a little gross so I really have to listen to my body...and food is just not as exciting as it used to be which is a good thing. I am down about 38lbs I also started a couch 2 5 k which is helping. Good luck on the fills let us know how it went

22 lbs awesome!!!! How was your first fill? Im so nervous for it not sure when I will get one like I said feeling I guess restrition I can only eat about a cup of food and it keeps me satified for 3-4 hrs.I started having a little snack if I need it and then Im good for a while.

Hi I am doing OK having trouble with tightness with my band even though I dont have any fill. Im having periods where my stomach feels like its sitting in my throat and I start sliming. One night I slimed all night ugh it was gross. So they dont know what to do with me and Im back on mushies. Oh and exercise actually relieves it weird. I am down about 30+ lbs that including preop and I started a couch to 5k last night. How about you??

I really like Lose it

Just wondering if any of you are having crazy gas rooling through your tummy and the burping and other end is crazy?? I was done Oct 29th and its still endless Im burping like Im chugging beer all the time.

Im 41/2 weeks out and I guess I have some restriction (I dont like that word at all) or still swollen. I can only eat about 1/2 to 1 cup depending on what Im eating and not hungry for 3-4 hours Ok i do have head hunger and if i end up snacking I cant eat my meals so I am trying not snack. So Im going to wait as long as I can for a fill.

I have been walking since about 1 week and was told by the clinic/doctor 4-6 weeks "listen to your body" so I am now doing a little Zumba along with walking just not going so crazy and listening to my body
