  1. NOW WHAT...The 1st 6wks....

    Elana posted a topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
    Hello fellow "banders"~ I am brand new to this site and pretty much to the band. I was banded on 3/29/11 by Dr. Johnson in Rochester, NY. There are some issues that I'm hoping to get some help with. Like I said, I'm 3 wks post op and I'm feeling very... blah! I'm done with the liquid, the soft and now I'm beginning the lifestyle diet. I have lost 8lbs and that's it! As I read on here I see that people are kinda saying the same thing. Has somebody out there had the same thing happen? I feel like I can eat anything (just about) and I don't really see a decrease in portion! I'm scheduled for the 1st fill on May 24th, which seems like forever away.. any words of wisdom out there?
