live in Modesto Ca. area.. wanted someone to talk to

I live in Waterford Ca. which is near Modesto in northern ca central valley. I'm 36 and have 4 kids a husband and three Bulldogs. I was banded on May 29th 09'. I have lost about 30lbs since I first saw the doctor. about 20 since the surgery. I have had 4 fills in a 14cc band I think she said I have 6cc in there. My last one was on Oct. 6th. Two days ago I had some chicken which I have been eating almost everyday for a month. I had about half of what I normally eat and then threw it up. Since then I have had terrible pain whenever i eat and fill full by just eating a couple of bites. I was just wondering if there was someone in my area that I could talk to...

it sounds like you may be a bit tight and you have to get used to it. I have a few suggestions- by the way I was banded 5 1/2 years ago and live in Ventura CA, on the coast...so while not local, I'm close anyway...Sometimes after you have an incident where you throw up you are irritated and you need to go back to soft (mushy) foods for 24 hours..Try that ..Then slowly intorduce solids back taking very small bits and chewing very well - let me know the results- you can send me a PM if you like.
