Hi! I'm Francine I had my lap band done on May 30th, 2013. The procedure itself was a breeze it's the gas pains that are killing me. I did not anticipate them to be so bad. I'm still experiencing them but to a lesser degree, thank god. My tummy is so swollen and hard still. The incisions are starting to heal and itch like crazy. I'm still very anxious that someway somehow I will mess this up like I did all of my diets in the past and have wasted 10K. I want to be that skinny girl in my head so bad!!! I do need some suggestions on how to facilitate taking my pills in the morning. RIght now it is taking me forever to crush them and then taking them like that tastes awful even when I mixed them with Jello. Has anyone come up with a more efficient way to take a large volume of pills. Any suggestions would be helpful. thanks.

I feel constantly bloated, even more so after I drink my shake or eat a popsicle. Burping is nealy impossible....how do you all deal with that? Francine

I'm only 4 days post-op and copied the rules you wrote. I want to be successful and so will post these rules everywhere in my house. Skinny is what I want to be. Thank you. Francine

Awesome! I will be trying that with my next doses.

Ok cool, I'm going to try this. Thank you.

Where your pills BIG? Mine are potassium pills and Metformin. They look like horse pills.
