I had the same thing at TGIF's. I swear the waiter and my fellow guests (who don't know I have the band) thought i'm bulimic. Everytime I eat food, it would just sit on top of the band and make me so uncomtfortable and everytime i move it comes right out. It also happened to me while was in evening rush hour. Good idea about the plastic bags. I would have never thought about that. Are there any foods that would stay down? i try to follow the food guide but when you go out people it's so hard. since i get sick alot i have a question for people. Do you this acid taste during the day or while your sleep (which would wake me up during a good dream) and would not go away for a an hour.how do you get rid of that? can anyone help me?

is it true that you have to eat every 2 -3 hours? That's what someone told me..

Sounds like a normal day for me also.. My friend who also has the band said the more you get filled the less you eat...what happens when i get filled to the max. i just wouldn't eat anymore....I joined Medifast and like you gained weight...i feel sometimes there is no winning to the band or losing weight....

Since Feb i have been a yo-yo...weight going up and down..I know how you feel.. I sometimes think why do i have this band..the only thing i had to do was eat right and exercise...so why have the band..then i realize having the band helped me controll my intake...it also made me realize that i don't always have to finish what is on my plate..so having the band is a good thing and a bad thing...the bad thing I have not sat down with my family to eat dinner...I cant sit there while they have all they can eat while I'm stuck eating a tea cup plate full of food...I'm giving the band a year and if I'm not a least 50lbs lost ....the band is going bye bye...

Can I join? I have the band since 02/28/07 and only lost 20 lbs.... I have the band that can holds 10cc...right now I have a total of 5ccs in the band and have restriction. My doctor and family wanted me to join a support group so I can express my feelings with other people who are going through this life changing with me. So can I join because I feel like I'm a slow loser and the weight will NEVER come off.
