Thanks for the info. It really helps to read how someone else has conquered the beast of hunger, even after banding. My only problem is I have a hard time swallowing , chicken, salmon, and tuna.

I'am glad to have found these remarks!! I hiccup more than burp, sometimes it feels good then other times it is very uncomfortable. This just started after my first fill last month.

I was banded at Kettering Hosp. by Dr. R. Anderson.Ask me anything! I did really well after the surgery.I can say that my after care has'nt been very good, that's why I have been searching for some support. You see the Dr. each month, but she looks at your stomach(sometimes) and at your weight loss and says I'll see ya next month. I requested to see the dietician and the exercise physiologist. There is no follow up with the physcologist (which is the most important part of changing your life style, not just eating but why we over eat.

I have been on Cymbalta (90 mg.)for about 1 1/2 years and I have struggled with weight gain, but also take trazadone at night too. This did't help my weight!
