Got a lap band in 2008. Tried hard, but didn't lose much weight & developed swallowing problems. Fought my insurance company for almost a year & finally had a band to DS revision on 5/11/12. Have now lost 125 pounds. Yay!

Shelli - I know what you mean about this weird thing. I had a fill last Tuesday and immediately felt restriction and I have the hiccups up frequently. I asked on the lapband forum and was told that it probably meant that I was at a soft spot. Not really sure what that means but I think it means that if is a good sign that I have had enough.
Definitely not eating as much as I could. And that is a good thing as Martha Stuart would say!

So glad things are going well for you.

I had just asked you on a post how you were feeling. So glad you've overcome your yuckies and I also hope that's it for you this season. It's no fun, that's for sure. Good luck with your fill and the scale...can't wait to see if you're at THE sweet spot for awhile!
