  1. Happy 39th Birthday kimmy73!

  2. I had my 2nd fill yesterday. My 1st fill was 2 weeks ago (2.5 cc's) and I had no restriction so I went back. I now have 4.5 cc's and everytime I eat something I can't stop burping for a while. It is very irritating because it seems the food is hard to go down, so I just get so fed up I stop eating. The down side to that is I'm not getting full because I'm not eating enough. Now with the 1st fill, I had some burping when I ate stuff like strawberries or oatmeal, but I still had no restriction so I don't think I'm too tight because nothing is getting stuck or coming back up. Does anyone else have this problem? It's so annoying. It is taking me 30 min or more to eat becuase I have to wait for all of the burping to pass. Eventually I just give up on trying to eat, then I'm hungry about 20 min later. Even mashed potatoes have been difficult to get down. However, they do go down. Any advice??

    Messed up on preop Diet

    I fell off the wagon during my pre op diet with shrimp fried rice. I ate the entire container over two days. I just got back on the wagon and surgery went fine.
