  1. Hey guys. I am 4 weeks post op and have been losing around 2-3 pounds a week. So I am down a total 17 pounds so far. I am finally eating regular foods now and found a great pasta substitute. Its called Tofu Shiritaki noodles. It is completely guilt free. It costs around 1.99 per pack and you get 2 servings out of each pack. It was great last night with light pasta sauce and fat free ricotta cheese. Tastes just like spagetti for my pasta lovers! Just thought I would share....
  2. As I am reading more posts on this site, Do you not begin to lose weight unless you have restriction or does it depend on the person? I feel like I have no physical restriction right now and I am 3 weeks post op yet I am still not able to eat nearly as much as I used to. Can I still lose weight without a fill?

    Weight Gaining!!! Help!!!

    MyFitnessPal is great for tracking. I have been using it and it works pretty good. It has all types of food there and exercise for you to track. I kinda feel the same way. I keep fluctuating between 2 pounds but think its just water weight. I have no restriction either. I am 3 weeks out tommorow. I just make sure I use my 1 cup tupperware bowls for most of my food and walk everyday. Its getting nice outside so find a local park and walk it out!!
  5. Hey guys. I am recently banded. I had my surgery on March 28th. I am already down 12 pounds so far!! MY starting weight was 250. I am now 238. I like it so far but I have been noticing that my family and friends are saying things like, I shouldnt keep it in forever, Its a cheat blah blah blah. How do you deal with the negative comments without getting discouraged?

    Omg How Would I Know If I Ripped A Stitch?

    No I am not eatingreal food yet. Mushies such as steamed fish, eggs, cream of wheat,grits etc. Spoke to the doctor and he said I should be fine. Just try not to lift heavy things. Thats hard when you have a terrible 2 at home lol.
  7. My little girl had a tantrum and I had to lift her out the store. I had some pain that day, yesterday too. When I called me doctor he said to take my pain pill and it instantly went away. Today I am fine but it does still feel a lil sore in my port area. But its not unbearable. Does anyone think I ripped it? Only difference I do notice is I am up to eating almost 1 cup of food at one sitting compared to the 1/2 cup. I am only 2 weeks post-op.

    No I am not eating solids. Only soft mushy food like cream of wheat,grits,tuna with low fat mayo, steamed tilapia, eggs greek yogurt etc. Ok glad to see I am on track.
  9. I am 2 weeks post op and I was full off of 1/2 cup of food. Now I am up to one cup of food. Yikes! Is this normal? I also have been walking at least 45 minutes daily. Is that ok? Does this mean I will need a fill by my May 3rd visit?

However 1-I dont see the difference 2- I am barely eating because everything makes me nauseous 3- Im constantly worrying about my band Is this part of the journey? I know the end results will be all worth it.
