Are you too tight? My Dr always tells me he can tell depending on my reflux.

Just got in from the drive-ins. busy day, had to get up at 5:30 no wonder why I'm so tired.

Have a good night everyone

Rain

Rain, you just reminded me dr H. has me come every 4-6 weeks instead of 8..He calls me his problem child. Ha, Ha....

Maybe i'm too tight, I don't know cause i can still eat a good amount...It seems to be the iced tea I drink in the a.m., every now and then once i have a glass it starts. How do you know if your too tight or your eating too much? :thumbdown:

Rain

Rain, how many cc's do u have, is it 5 or 5.5?

Vicki,

Im pretty sure I remember having some acid reflux when I was drinking ice t as well. Now I drink sugar free Hawaiian punch. Its so good they have grape, pink berry lemonade and fruit punch. I get tham at walgreens, cvs and the dollar store. Its only 1.00 for 8 packets.

I believe that I have 5.25 in my band. He gave me .25 at my last visit. I think its working, I have lost 1.5 lbs this week. As long as its going down and not stuck Im happy.

thats how I feel to Rain, when I was at 5.5, I gained a lb and now I am 5.7 and feel a little tight, so I'm not sure what to do. I dont want to stagnate or gain but I hate having heart burn and feeling deprived. I am hungry but afraid to eat.....:thumbdown:

I am definitly going to try the punch and quit drinking the iced t, here comes the caffiene withdrawls...

I had to give up Hot Peppers and my buffalo wing pretzel bites. they caused me so much pain at night I couldn't stand myself. I miss them so...

I find myself giving up hot and spicy too and I love my hot and spicy food.

Veronica,

It sounds like you must still be in oneferland. So thats good. This band is definitely trickier than they make it out to be. Thank goodness for supportive websites so we dont feel alone.
