Yaaay there's someone else around this area! Boooooo that you're having some trouble. We should all try to get together for coffee sometime! I bet we've all seen each other around and don't realize it.

I am actually 2 years post op. BUT, at 1 year I had a severe slip and had to have a revision ..... then never got to get fills because the darned port had been pulled from the stitchng. Y, it was "free floating"!
Everytime Dr. Seares tried to do a fill it was a constant miss because it would move all over.
Sooooo, in this 1 year, I have gained back 37 of the 117 I lost! SUCKS! I JUST got that stitched down 1 week exactly ago.
I had also been looking for others in the area .
So nice to see someone close to me!

1. you have reflux at night.... mine was ALL the time. You cannot keep things down. I could not even keep water down. Mine was severe. It actually required a new band all together.
In the end, I had bad pain .... and a high fever. I ended up IN THE HOSPITAL the day I went in.
If you are having things come up alot even though you are chewing very well ..... you may be to tight and need an un fill.
But you sound fine!

SUPPORT GROUP MEETING TOMORROW NIGHT 10/28/2009 !!!
Fairbanks Cancer Treatment Center - 7:00 PM
subject : Healthy Halloween Eating Habits !!
Also lets have a PROTEIN SWAP, if you have a protein product you don't want, share with the group and let others try it and see if they like it. !
Last week we released two major updates. First was the public release of OH Groups where any ObesityHelp member can now create their own Group. Second was the addition of Activity Tracking to Health Tracker, which provides a robust and easy to use tool to track and monitor your exercise and activity. Today we have added My Meals and an Activity vs. Weight Loss Report to Health Tracker.
My MealsMy Meals allows you to group and store multiple food and beverage items as a custom meal that can be used over and over again. If you have meals that you eat on a regular basis, you will no longer need to log each food item individually. |
To access My Meals, go to your Health Tracker in My OH and click on the Nutrition tab. You will see My Meals listed under Nutrition. |
Creating a new meal works similar to your Food Log. You can search for food items on the right and add the foods to the meal on the left. A Calorie Breakdown chart and Nutrient Summary Label are also available for each meal. |
Once a meal is created you can add that meal to your Food Log from My Meals by clicking "i had this" or you can search for the meal from your Food Log. |
When searching for a meal to add to your Food Log, all meals will be returned when "My Foods" is selected in search. So, to "drill down" on meals that you have created, select to only show "My Foods." When a new meal is created it may require up to 30 minutes for that meal to be indexed and become searchable. |
Activity vs. Weight Loss ReportAdding to the Macronutrient and Export Reports previously available, there is now an Activity vs. Weight Loss Report. This report will allow to compare Average Time in Activity vs Weight over time, providing you with further insight into what impact physical activity as on weight loss and weight loss maintenance. In Health Tracker, click Reports and then select Activity vs. Weight Loss. |
We hope these additions to Health Track reduce the time required to log your daily food intake and makes it easier to view how physical activity impacts your weight. Create your first meal now! If you have any questions, comments or concerns about this release, please post them on the Main Message Board. |

Thanks for everyone's help!!
