That sounds terrible! I hope that shot helps, and FAST! There are so many bugs out there lately!!!!

The strange thing is it happens anytime - like this morning... nothing to eat yet (or drink).... it happens throughout the day, one here, one there. No nausea with it, thank goodness. It's just like regular hiccups but only one intermittently. Bizzarre.... lol.

and so ready for this journey. So far, everything has gone smoothly. I had some bad muscle spasms the first week but those have subsided the past few days (from where the port lies on the muscle). I am on day 5 of 14 of full fluids and already bored. BUT it is better than the week of clear fluids I was on. Still learning to tell if I am REALLY hungry or just wanting to eat. Anyway, looking forward to getting to know all of you!

Thank you so much. Hmmm.... what else to tell you. I am a mom of two boys - 11 and almost 4. Happily married to a very supportive man. He is overweight as well and we are hoping (I am) that as a result of my cooking smaller meals that he will benefit from my surgery as well. A tip my nurse gave me (who is also banded) is when you go out to eat to share a meal with your spouse in the case where they need to lose too. It saves money and makes sense since the portions at restaurants are HUGE! Anyway... I appreciate you all making me feel at home. Thank you in advance for your support, ideas and well... taking the journey with me.

I am newly banded so can really help but wanted to let you know I am sorry for the loss of your Grandma.
