Zach's Mom

Way to go. You look great!

Congratulations!!!!

My fills are a littel diffrent than Mandypoo's. My dr. makes me drink this liquide stuff while taking an x-ray. than I lay on the table he sticks me once and than takes another x-ray to comapre the speed the liquied goes down before and after the fill. It is very fast and there is no pain.

When I get stuck I know it right away. Sometimes it lasts a few minutes and sometimes it last as long as an hour. Drinking some water makes it even worse.

I was on Glucophage for about a year while trying to get pregnant. It was hard at first for about 6 weeks(diarrhea) but after that I liked being on it. It lowered my blood pressure and made my eyesight better. I did not however lose any weight while on it.

I had matza last night and it was fine. The matza balls in the soup I only tasted one bite because I was afraid of it getting stuck. I am just sticking to chicken and veggies for the most part.

I had my 4th fill this week and I am finally feeling restriction. My dr. is very conservative and goes very slow with the fills. I hope with this restriction I can finally start losing some real weight. Wish me luck!

I also had a hernia repaired during my lap band surgery. Since that day I have yet to have any heartburn or acid reflux!. Good luck to you on your journey.

Hi everyone- Does any one know of a local support group in the Fort Worth or mid cities area that meets on Saturday? Thanks!

congratulations on your surgery. Keep up the good weight loss!

Way to go! Congratulations!

My dr. makes us wait three months for the first fill and I had mine today. I was so scared but it was easy breezy no big deal at all. I have lost 15 lbs since my surgery and am so excited now that I can start having a fill every month until I am where I need to be!:clap2:
