  6. We are very similar! I was banded jan 11th and I'm down about the same...let me ask you, were you happy with what you lost so far or were you hoping for more? Because I was...
  7. Hello, does anyone else feel like they aren't losing as much as they think they should be? I am now in my solids phase and I exercise too but I've only lost 27 lbs since the end of nov and I was banded jan 11th. Idk am I being paranoid? I feel like it should be more. In my first two weeks I lost 10 and was depressed about it! Maybe its just me...but how have you all felt? Any suggestions?
  8. Hello all, is anyone else feeling a though they are hitting a brick wall when it comes to what foods to eat? I started my solids phase last wed and I need some recipe or food ideas that I can use! I work all week and some weekends so I need ideas of easy, healthy things to make to bring with me! Thank you!
  9. Ok these comments are all helpful...one more thing I'm wondering....technically I should start a new birth control pack tonight. My obgyn said to wait til I got my period then start the new pack. But I haven't started. Should I begin the pack anyways?? I'm thinking when I reach the sugar pills in 4 weeks hopefully that will trigger it to come, if it doesn't before then.
  10. Oh I hear you with the gas problem! I. had my surgery jan 11th and I would say for a good week or a little more the gas was creating pain in my upper chest/ shoulder area it was awful!! But I promise it gets better!
  11. Thanks everyone! I'm happy to hear that it should be coming...now I'm wondering if I should start my new pill pack tomorrow even though I haven't gotten my cycle yet? Thoughts?
  12. Hello all...my lap band surgery was january 11th and I was due for my period this past sunday January 29th. It hasn't come, and I have no symptoms. Im also not pregnant...should I not worry just because of the strain surgery had on my body and my hormones being off? Thanks for the input!
