Thank you so much! Thank goodness for everyone that answers newbies questions.... You save us from going nutz LOL

I am one week one day post op.... I eat till I feel okay.... but a few mins later I am hungry... I want to eat again, but i don't i stick to the 3 small meals a day. I'm in liquid and mush phase... when i get to where i am eating "real" food (solids) am I going to feel fuller????

1ST thing i thought was low blood sugar i got my dads tester out and i was 102 so i was good. I feel good today. I drank more water. Took some pain meds to sleep and now i feel fine. I also had what people call sliming where my mouth over waters... i have had that twice now after my surgery last friday. Its weird and I am not taking any pills or eating a solids and really wasn't drinking enough so maybe it was my swollen tummy. all is well for now! I feel great today *knock on wood*

I am dizzy all the time!! I started out with 2 days before surgery on a liquid diet. while on that i was fine. Never was dizzy. Now i am dizzy all the time if i am sitting or laying i am fine when i get up its bad! im not on pain meds anymore. anyone else going thru this?

please tell me what happened with you if you can I like to know the good the bad and the ugly!

Tomorrow I am being banded. I have waited so long! I'm very excited and for this to be my 1st surgery ever I'm rather laid back about it. We will see if that changes tomorrow tho! I know I wont be able to sleep tonight I'm sure! Wish me luck =]

I will be banded on September 16th =] so very excited!

You are the only one that can do this! get you some up beat music to get your mood together and just kick @ss!

Thank you all very much. I have never been put to sleep and never had surgery so i was freaked out to have to feel something inside of me. Thank you for all your replies!!

I was wondering if banded people feel the band inside.... Does it feel weird at first and you get use to it?

My name is Jennifer. I live in the Dallas Fort worth area... 8 years ago I was trying to get WLS in the middle of all the testing for the insurance I lost my insurance and had to give up.... Im back at it again! Pay cash out of pocket! I very excited, but I have been let down before. On September 30th I hope to be banded. I am getting a tax return back that I didn't file for (2009) and I am using it as a down payment. I have everything done such as blood tests breathing tests EKG everything done. Just waiting for the money part. I learn from the last let down 8 years ago to not be TOO excited.... so cross your fingers for me please! I am 27 years old. I weight 301 with a bmi of 51.4... i wear a size 26/28 jean and 3x-4x top

LOL thats awesome!!

I am reading more topics and seeing that someone my size 3x top 26/28 jeans say that their are now shopping at The Gap.... normal stores. That seems so weird to me... I was born fat! I only know FAT GIRL sizes! I can't wait to feel... i guess you would say "normal" Shop anywhere because all stores have your size... I have never been able to do that! I cant wait!!!!

YOUR RIGHT!! Thank you! most the time the glass is always 1/2 empty with me! LOL thank you very much you made me feel a lot better!

I am about to be banded in Oct. I am reading a lot of topics and now I am scared of my unit slipping ...... i am paying out of pocket on payments and what if my band slips!!! im scared now damnit
