5 Weeks

I am 5 weeks out from getting banded and three weeks out from my first fill. I am really down because I have only lost 10 lbs. Well ok I had lost like 15 lbs and then gainned 5 back.

 

When I got my first fill it hurt??? Im not talking about the needle Im talking about when the fuild went in. Is that normal????

 

Also I dont feel any changes as far as the amount of food I can eat. I am trying really hard to control the amounts of food I am eating and what I am eating but old habits are really hard to break. I had 5mls put in. And go back next week for the next fill.

 

I am trying to start exercising. I did Jillian Micheals 30 day shred and hurt so bad the next day that I couldnt hardly move so what do you know here I am four days later and I havent tried to exercise since. I know I have to change. I want to change.

LAP-BAND Patients

Hang in there!!! I had my surgery on 4/24 and am only down 4 lbs since two days following surgery. I am being a bad girl and have been sneaking bites of meat. I told the drs nurse and she discouraged it but didn't forbid it. But I can't seem to get full. She scheduled me an early appt to get a fill. Hopefully your appt is early next week. I do moderate excercise on the days I hurt from the day before. Even standing in place burns calories and walking burns even more. Chin up!!
