3 1/2 weeks in

I was banded on Dec. 10th, at 259 pounds. I woke up to very little pain and never ,even, needed the pain meds. I was crazy full the first 2 wks. At my 2wk check-up I had lost 16 pounds! I am now 243. I go back for a fill in 3 wks and can't wait to get weighed in (I still don't have a scale at home lol). It is a little harder now since I haven't had a fill and the swelling is down, but I still get full after about a cup to a cup and a half of food. I'm trying to stick to liquids and soft foods still ever though I am on stage three. I figure it will help me until I get a fill. Can't wait to see whats ahead!
