So with my 9cc's (realize 14cc band) as of 8/1/12 I am learning this band is not a joke, to all who have not found there way to restriction, have patience, it will come! So im still trying to figure out if im to tight, today I had a Greek yogurt for Breakfast, small bag of chex mex for snack, and than came the downer of the day, an orange! From 1pm I was nauseas, having cold sweats and extremely fatigue, about 10 minutes ago the culprit surfaced, one good belch and up came the half of orange I thought I had digested! This is definitely a learning experience, unfortunately no matter how many people tell you the do's and the dont's most of the dont's are not dont's until you experience it first hand#learning!!

I totally agree! Different foods affect everyone different, but I too have that problem with oranges, or anything citrus-y. You may not be too tight. Just try chewing a lot more and eat super SLOW. I want mine to be a little tight because it makes me think about what I'm doing. Try not eating Pasta, rice, tortillas or potatoes. They all get stuck for me. Good luck!

Oranges, and other citrus fruit, can be a problem because of the pith and the stringy bits.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
