BandedAnnie

This is so encouraging to read that...I go in for my fill on Tuesday the 18th. I can't wait because my stomach growls almost all day long. I am eating small portions but still more than I expected I would be able to eat. I am seeing my seemstress tomorrow and hoping she can bring some of my pants in as they are all way too big!

THanks for the encouragement guys!

Thanks for the notes! So GasX we can take after surgery? I think I will need to get some. I feel good when I wake up but by the end of the day and with even a little water, I feel gassy again! I can't WAIT till that is gone! I'm also amazed at how tired my body gets. I had a full hysterectomy three years ago and don't remember feeling this tired. I might leave a little early today just to get home and rest because that seems to be a very important thing right now!

Thank you! How are you guys doing?

Thanks! I was 'feeling' my head with my hand and I didn't seem hot so I was figuring it was that my stomach was upset....today I see one of my Drs so I am going to tell him about it.

Thanks for the encouragement everyone, and for reading! It just helps to know others out there in the world are going through the same things. This is a hard process and one that I realized I can't really talk about if the person hasn't gone through it. So it is wonderful to have others in this with me!<br>

Really enjoyed your post. Appreciate the detail. I have been curious about what we really go through right after surgery and the days that follow. Thank you. And it is wonderful to hear that you are doing so well.

<br>Thanks! I'm excited for you too! It seems to take forever to get surgery going, but then once it happens, it seems to fly by! I can't believe I am almost one week post!!! Tomorrow will be one week already! It seems surreal that long has gone by!<br><br>

<br>I've enjoyed reading about your the start of your journey. I love encouraging posts. I wish you blessings and success.<img src="http://cdn.lapbandtalk.com/public/style_emoticons/%3C#EMO_DIR#%3E/smile.gif" class="bbc_emoticon" alt=""><br>

BTW, I was banded on 9/21 as well!<br>

<br><br>So we are like 'banded' sisters! lol How are you feeling!?! I've had a lot of 'throwing up', although nothing really comes out! (sorry for being graphic!) I can barely eat anything, which is all in all a WONDERFUL thing, but I sometimes feel like I want to eat and if I have a sip too much, out it tries to come. I guess we are getting used to 'new bodies' and so we are learning how to live with them now, like a baby that has too much formula! They don't know how much is too much, they just drink until there is no more, and then puke it up hahaha...anyway good luck to you! Let's keep in touch, I need to hear from others on where they are at so I know if I'm experiencing normal things! <br>

Wow, that is awesome! Good for you! How are you feeling now??? Do you 'feel' full since surgery on the liquids?

I am just seeing these...wow thanks everyone! It is so helpful to read and get encouragements! I will keep posting!
