Thanks Tracey. Are you on any special diet yet. I had to go on a cottage cheese, yogurt (all low fat) for two weeks prior to surgery to shrink the liver. Say, how did you get the neat looking measuring stick into your message? Doddie
Hi Robyn: I am fron the boonies North Vancouver, BC. I can't seem to find many people banded out here so I thought "what the hey, I try and hook up with someone from another province and see how they are making out." Afraid I am an older bandster. 63, retired, married and love to travel. I was 299 when banded and now 268. When my weight goes down, I think the airplane seats will be more comfortable. Doddie
I was banded Feb. 1/07 with the Midband. I have lost 20 lbs to date and I am still on full fluids. Tomorrow, I start mushies and I can soooooooo taste it. My doctor was Dr. Yau and I have had no problems so far. I was 299 at time of banding and hope to be 180 in 2 years.
