Hello everyone, I am new to this lapband and the internet. Just learning both. Everyone has shared some very good info and I thank you all for that. I am still on liquids and trying carnation instant breakfast. I might get brave and try soup tomorrow. I just went for a short walk in the park and my stomach is jumping up and down. I think it might be hungrey. Trying follow my surgens instructions. I am 54 years old and by my birthday I hope to have lost half of my weight which is Nov. Thanks a bunch

    Hello, Welcome to the lapband family. I was banded on March 2, 2012. I have lost a total of 30 pounds doesnt seem alot but I'm happy I started at 220 so i guess its ok.I also didnt tell anyone i had surgrey so losing it slow is good.

    Well my first week i had aolt of liquids, ice pops, chicken broth. 2nd week sceabled eggs and creamy spinach. I got filled twice. the 1st one was uncomfortable and 2nd one was fine going for my 3rd June 28. I would like to lose another 30 by September. I will try.... Feel free if you have any questions.
