    Oh The Gas Pains

    I had surgery 9/20 I still have some pain under my left breast Especially after drinking too much Water How can you tell what's causing the pain? I think it's gas but I'm not sure! I really have no clue how the band should feel!!! I didn't think my band would involve pain!

    1 Cup Of Food?

    8oz of food is not the same as volume in a measuring cup Food has different mass and volume A cup of pork chop weighs different than a cup of lettuce for example A cup really is a guide ... Just stop eating when you get a sign from your band My sign is I hic-up ! Good luck

    Pain In Breastbone

    Thanks for the reassurance !
  21. Had my surgery 9/20 Started soft food last Thursday Had tuna for lunch but now t have pain in my band area and did not eat dinner Now I'm worried Can too much physical activity hurt my band only 3 weeks after surgery? I did not lift anything Only heavy house cleaning like scrubbing floors. Maybe I ate lunch too fast? I know I'm a worry wart but I'm a self pay and don't have extra money if something goes wrong ! Any thoughts?

    Need To Refocus

    Hi Jean I'm enjoying reading your books and looking forward to trying your recipes !
  24. Got my band 9/20/12 Ate my first "real" food today Not drinking with dinner was the worst part ! So I have a question If we wait 30 minutes to drink so we doesn't wash the food thru the band, How does the food stay in there after 30 minutes? Won't it wash away 30 minutes later? I really don't get this part ! Splain Lucy !
