You should definitely get it checked out...it's possible you may have a hernia or something.  It's better to be safe than sorry.  The weight will come off, but the stomach pains are nothing to mess around with.  Good Luck!

Soup is a slider food.  It doesn't stay in your pouch and make you feel full.  As for solids, make sure you are taking tiny bites.  Bites the size of a pea or pencil eraser.  And chew chew chew until it is the consistancy of applesauce.

Also, don't drink with your meals.  Wait 30 minutes to an hour after a meal to drink.

Good luck!

You're not alone.  I had the lapband in 8/08 and Ive only lost 15 pounds thus far.  What am I doing wrong??? I dont even feel like anything is going on anymore.  

I feel like I should have had the gastric.
