    1st fill

    Well today was my first fill. 2.25 was the amount I received today. I didn't know if it would hurt or not and the needle did hurt just a bit but nothing that I could not handle. So today I am on liquids only. Tomorrow I can start soft foods again. The grand news is 29 lbs down. I can say that I can feel the liquid go down today. Maybe it's in my head. Until next time
  2. Finding it hard to get in all my grams of protein in with shakes. YUK!!!

    mourning the loss of a dear friend.......FOOD.

    Arnetta, You made me cry!!!!!!! I too have thought about the food that I will not be eating but............I have meet a few people in the office when weighting for my turn at the dr. and they all have told me that they eat some of the things that I didn't think I (we) would be able to eat. Pizza just eat the toppings. Spaghetti just needs to be whole wheat pasta. Mine is a hamburger, that is the one that I am going to have the most problem with. I know i can eat it without the bun but it will not be a HAMBURGER without the bun. I hope everything get's better for you. We did the right thing. Love and Hugs to my Banded FRIEND!!!! Kim

Eating to going well. tonight thought my husband was dinking a pop and I wanted just one sip.... bad idea!!!! It is been easier than I thought it would be. What's been going on with you.

    Thanks for FINALLY updating. I was getting worried. heating pad works also for the gas pains. It helped me alot. How is your stomach? I felt like i had done a 1000 crunches. Glad u are doing ok. Also for sleeping I found a body pillow has helped laying in bed.

But not in to much pain, I am sure I might fell worst as the day goes on. But husband went to get pain meds. I have made a couple loops around the house already. I left the house and 6 and was back home by 12. that is with a drive of 40 min each way. Talk to you later Kim

    Hello I live in Missouri. Long journey for sure I am glad I (we) are on the home streach!!! How is your liquide diet going??

  22. Day 6 of my liquide and I cheated today and had a just 1 french fry. Daycare in my home and I fixed the chicken nuggets and frys and greenbeans and oranges. I must say it was good. Other than that all is well with this liquide diet thing. I know I will be ready for some real "soft" food in a couple of weeks.
