  1. Happy 30th Birthday ravendays!

  2. doing good. 19.8 lbs down 2 months post op. Fill scheduled for the 30th. Found out I shouldnt be able to eat a full sammich without problem haha. Excited for the fill.

  3. suppose to get my 1st fill on the 16th...thinking I may not need it now tho. If anything Im probably not eating enough how it is and I can got 3-5 hrs without being too hungry. Im losing 1 to 2 lbs a week....so I may reschedule.

  4. I am doing okay. I go back to the doctor today hopefully I will hit my 50 lbs mark but I doubt it. I have been sick this weekend and did not go to gym for two days and was not making great choices while out of town but hopefully I will be close. I pray he gives me a fill today since I am getting hungry about every 3 1/2 to 4 hours. I hope I get a good report.

  5. Hey there, thanks for asking :) My weight hasn't changed for like 2 weeks :( I started going to the gym for about an hour of cardio a day for the past 8 days and still nothing. I won't let myself give up and I'm hoping my fill on the 14th will decrease my appetite enough. How are you doing?

  6. Hey there, just checkin in...hope all is good your way?

  7. Hey hun, wondering how you are doing?

    Being Sick and Being Banded

    Thank you everyone. I'm on the downhill of this nasty chest cold. My port area hurt really bad day of on set of symptoms and the 1st day of the cold and after the congestion started to break up the port didnt hurt anymore. I guess from the inflammation of me coughing and congestation that it irritated poor lil Bandito somehow Ahhh to breathe again is nice =) Thanks again!
  9. Was wondering if anyone on here has experience a chest cold or flu type illness after being banded and if it effected your port? My port was sore 3 days ago and I figured I over did it day before spring cleaning my house. Next day it was still sore. Then yesterday I had the "wont go away and I keep wanting to cough" experience. Today I woke up with fever and body aches. I would think they port isnt related to my lungs and chest cavaty area but honestly my legs are achey from this and they have no relation to my lungs....so I was wondering how everyone else was effected when sick? By the week im a month post op =)

    Intro - HCG

    I have heard some bad things about the HCG diet but then again you'll hear "Bad things" about anything this days. I have a friend that started taking diet pills now after 6 months post op and 50 lbs down. She also has had a month long battle with constipation due to not eating healthy enough. Guess what her daily splurge was? Vanilla shakes....you are 10 days post op? I'd highly recommend you wait until you are healed up a bit more and think a lot on this one splurge. If you can justify this, what else can you justify? Oreo Cookies w/ milk? Shoot I did pre-op...made since to me, the equalled each other out haha. Just remember why you did this surgery and if a milk shake is something your body needs for fuel. Best of luck to you both. Oh and OP I would suggest asking your doctor if the HCG diet is a health diet to start post op...good luck =)
  11. im sick. My port hurts and is sensitive right now...hopin thats normal. Sucks to cough again. I can eat and drink fine, though with this chest crap Im not much hungry. UGH Love when co-workers get me sick =(

  12. One month since surgery...down 15.4 lbs! Doing well tho I keep thinking Im completly healed and 6 hrs of cleaning results in a reminder =P Doing good on the mushies tho I've limited myself to 3 different meals I rotate threw...Tomorrow is day1 of regular food w/ caution...

  13. Tomorrow is week 3 post op....Really? Doesnt feel like its been that long! Scheduled my 1st fill for March 16th!
