Hi. I was banded 7/06, had my first fill (1cc) 2 months ago, and now my second fill a couple of days ago (2.5-3cc md is unsure?). Since that time I have felt as though liquids go down slowly and i'm having a hard time eating solids even with chewing VERY carefully. They don't necessarily come back up but they sit there and hurt. Soup is fine, and mushies seem to sit for a while but then go. Anything else and I'm miserable. Am I too full or just not used to this thing? Liz

I have regular ear piercings- no big deal, but when I got my cartilage pierced it didn't hurt so bad when they did it, but it took a YEAR for it to finally heal so that I could sleep on that side! (speaking of which i need to go put that back in, they made me take it out for surgery) I'm totally getting my bellybutton done when I'm skinnier.

I'm in for this month, but let me get back to the states before I can tell you all my info... Liz

You know dezadoo, I accidentally added that extra "e" into your sentence... then i realized you meant surgery lol

Do the seasickness patches help with a hangover? :) Kidding!!!!

Hi everyone! Guess what, I am alive! I had a panic attack that woke me up the night before my surgery, and I almost changed my mind, but it's done now! Yesterday I felt like I had been run over by a Mack truck, then by last night a 4 wheel drive, now today just a car Except after hauling my luggage up my port site is hurting again. Oh well, tomorrow just a bike? I haven't had much gas pain yet, just pain at the port site. I also keep getting these feelings like my stomach is cramping up, but they go away about as fast as they come. I had a pretty big hernia Dr. Zapata said, but he fixed that too. Anyway, I'm hoping your toe is feeling better BGP. I know the feeling when you've got all the science to back something up but people don't want to believe it- that's poopy Anyway, going to go lay down and see if i can't make my side feel better. Talk to all of you later tonight!

Paulax, I'm here all by my self! I keep thinking "I'm such a strong person", but deep down i really wish someone were here :bananapartyhat: Too bad there really wasn't anyone to bring. Oh well :bananapartyhat: Earlier i was thinking, wow, I'm in a foreign country by myself, I should do something crazy, like get a piercing or a tattoo or something, and then i remembered- I'm having surgery! Crazy enough :bananapartyhat:

Congratulations, and I LOVE the tattoo.

Excellent idea, and just imagine if we ALL have water- oh boy, watch out. I hear that funny gets into some pretty FUNNY stuff!!! lol

Scared, SCARED! Running around with my head under my arm. Tomorrow's the big day! I need a great big tranquilizer.

ROFLMAO We crack me up! I think we should have rooms near each other in case we get "waterlogged"

Hi BGP. I will. I had a mini emotional breakdown at dinner, just a couple of tears. Made an international call to my parents- they weren't home. :bananapartyhat: Oh well! I'm in monterrey right now and will be until the 2nd when I fly back home to florida. I was thinking about you as I wandered the mall today. Has anyone checked your uric acid? Is your big toe red and swollen? I'm wondering about gout.
