Topic: RE: *sigh* - here we go again
I find that if I let something that feels a little uncomfortable sort of "sit" in my pouch too long, I tend to have trouble the following day. I don't know in my case if it is a reflux issue or something else. I have had trouble with reflux (I'm on something for it) and it makes me kind of paranoid, so i too have been using liquids to "move things along." then of course I end up hungry again too soon. Arrrgh.
Topic: Where's the crab cake recipe?
I'm sure Vicki or someone posted it?
I have some crab meat in the freezer and have wanted to make the crab cakes myself but haven't gotten the courage to do so! I know there are a ton of recipes on the web, but tried and true are best!
Also...what do you gals put in your crab meat salad?
Thanks!

Hope by the time you read this your band has settled down! I find it so odd how they change! I have generally got just the right amount of restriction but I jsut ate (slowly) a tuna and potato fishcake, should be so soft it slid down. Two mouthfuls and I am painfully full! Don't think i am going to slime but close run thing!!

Glad you are feeling better ! I got the flu shot and still got sick ... don't know what it was a cold or flu but my sinuses , ears and throat were hurting . I ran a low grade temp. but didn't have to go to the Dr. with it . My husband also came down with it ... it was more in his chest and he went to the Dr. and got medication for it . The change of weather is so crazy here its enough to make you sick . In the seventies during the day and then it drops to the 30's at night . One day cold the next hot . ~ Cindy

I had very little in my band untill this last fill . Last May I had an unfill then I had no restriction but was under a lot of stress and was scared to get a fill because it might be to tight again . Now I have good restriction but pain when I eat meat . Last night I ate roast beef and thought I was going to die but after 30 minutes was up I drank some water and I was fine . As long as I drink 30 minutes after I eat I'm fine . I called my Drs. office earlier and am waitng for them to call back . I haven't lost any weight in the last few months . In fact I gained but I have lost what I gained so I am just maintaining . When I had my last fill {before the one in Jan. } some of the solution had leaked out { due to the filling process .. when he takes the needle out } that is why I didn't have restriction and now I have restriction and I can't eat . I'm getting really discouraged . ~ Cindy

Up until this, I've had very little restriction with this fill level. This is my chronic problem - I have episodes of swelling out of the blue. I'm getting kind of tired of it really. I think I've onlt lost about 10 lbs in the last year because I spend so much time unfilled.

Dev , sorry to hear this . I will be anxious to see how you are doing . Hope it gets better ! I have to be very careful since my last fill which I had in Jan .. I have pain after I eat but after 30 minutes I drink some water and I am fine . I have no problems with liquids . I think I might be eating to much with this fill although I try not to eat more than a cup of food . I'm going to cut back on my eating and see how it goes . ~ Cindy
