Have my first training session at the gym today. I'm excited but Scared!

Does it hurt?!? I have my first fill tomorrow!

People are not educated when it comes to how hard you have to work when getting this surgery. I only told people right before I had the surgery. And when someone told me I took the easy way out, I told them I was offended and they do not know what they are talking about. Use this forum and go to support groups for support. That is what I do and it has helped me so much !

The more I healed the more hungry I got too. I use a calorie counter on my phone to keep me on track. It helps me a lot.

I am nervous too. I think in nervous because I'm afraid I will over eat and not know or it won't work. I'm sure we will be fine!

Congrats! I was just banded On the second and the pain from the gas goes away as long as you walk a lot and drink a lot of water ! Good luck! You can do it !

I'm glad to hear that! I was banded the 2nd!

Ok! I have added everyone! Is there a way to find other peoples recipes?

Thank you, I will have them check for sure! How are you after the colon cancer? Hope your are doing well !

That makes me feel better. I was finally feeling good from the lapband surgery. Which I had a hiatal hernia as well. And now I have this. Just really uncomfortable.

Just found out i have internal Hemorrhoids after 4 weeks post op! Anyone gone through this surgery!? What was the recovery like?

Have Started using Myfitness pal, an ap on my iPhone for a week now and it has helped me so much. I'm 3 weeks post op and it had kept me on track. Also, gives me the freedom of knowing I am doing the right thing and not feeling guilty for eating. It is a free ap !

Don't be afraid of drinking too much, just drink small sips. I kept my drink in my Hand all day. I don't eat jello so it was mostly protein drinks and water.

I Recommend isapure. It is amazing and not milky like all those other protein shakes! I got mine at the vitamin shop. Pricy but worth it!

I was banded 7/2/12 and I am good in the morning but am tired by 2pm!

I was banded July 2 and I feel a thousand times better than the first few week! Walk walk walk ! sleep and drink lots of water! It will pass. I was counting the minutes cause I couldn't wait for the week to go bye. Now I am enjoying my time off work! Good luck! You can do it!!

Mine was dry. I just kept water in my hand and kept drinking a sip every few seconds. It goes away.

I hope your feeling better!!

Great job!!! So inspiring!

Thank you!

Thank you !

How are you feeling? We were banded the same day?

Just be prepared and make sure there is someone to help you get up and down. I will be honest, it was extremely painful and uncomfortable. But I had lots of help which made it easier.
