Thanks Jamie for your post thats inspiring!! Im going to do just that!! I guess I did have that fear to push myself. If your doing all that I can for sure get my butt up!!!

7 days post op 10lbs down! Im still having a hard time getting motivated tho. I feel pretty ok except for the stupid gas that goes up and stops in my throat I JUST WANNA BURRP!! I know I need to get up and about tho. Laying in bed I got hooked watching the 2 seasons of Glee. Bad idea! but its easy for me I have no kids, Im off of work another week, and my roomates outta town. Ive only been outta the house twice in the last week, the first time was 5 days post op I went to wal-mart and almost fainted.. I do live in Texas tho and it was 111 out so my motivation to leave the house is not exactly great at this point!

I feel ya girl! Im having the same problem. Im pretty much gaging down my Protein shakes. Try the gas x strips, I got some today and they seem to be helping with the gas pressure.

Thanks Caryn! I did call the Dr. I don't have a high fever or anything they just said im feeling like this beacuse Im not drinking enough Water. They told me to get some pedialyte and take some gas x and so far that has helped. I called my mom and shes gonna get me out of the house today so Im hoping that will help alot too. I might even buy a scale!

Hi everyone! Ive never posted or been part of a forum before but after spending hours reading everyones posts I can't help but be a part of it as well! My name is Tasha Im 23 from Austin, TX I was banded on Aug. 10th. My starting weight was 326 and day of surgery 300. Im not sure what my current weight is now because I dont own a scale. Im actually pretty affraid of them and don't want to be dissapointed. Also, Im a bit worried because its been 4 days since my surgery and I still feel like crap! Im really tired all I wanna do is lay in bed and Im having a hard time getting in all my fluids and vitamins any sugestions?? Thanks
