Only mornings for me and so I try to drink something before I eat. How about eating something on your way to dinner? Gummy vitamins or something?

I have trouble with some raw veggies, like carrots and cucumbers. And, of course if I don't chew well anything could give me trouble.

Welcome back! Most of us have difficult days. We can do this!

Yay!! New beginnings....

Toot away! Good job!!

I've had five fills and finally getting close. It takes time and coming off S-L-O-W, but I just keep telling myself it's only the beginning of the journey. Be patient, it will come. I used MyFitnessPal to track calories. Drink lots of water!

Good work!

I was feeling better within 4 days or so. I went back to work on the 5th day. For me, the gas pain was the worst part. Walking helps and GasX was my friend!

Great article!

Every doc seems to be a little different. I'd call your doc to see about their instructions. Mine didn't require a pre-op liquid diet. Mine required a very low carb.

Yes, it's gas!

Job well done!! It helps me to hear people's struggles and that they powered through. I hope to be posting such a success someday!

I just got my 4th fill and not in green zone yet, but close I think. Its been slow for me, still plugging away and watching my cals intake till I get there! Hang in there!

My Dr requires no eating 3 hrs before a fill.
