Thanx everyone! I will get me a scale and check out that website for the plate!

Does anybody know were I can find a plate that has the specific porportions for lap band patients. I'm pretty sure I'm eating more than I should.

Yeah I just got my second fill on Tuesday. I think I have 4cc in it now hopefully I'll only need one more fill. I'm planning on stepping up my workouts also!

Since being banded 10/31/12 I've lost about 32 lbs(includes what I lost on 1 week pre op diet)

I started at 328, currently I'm at 296. I'm kinda feeling like my weight loss is going slow!

I was banded on Halloween 2012! My weight loss is going slower than I expected! Can you give me an idea of how your diet is? What your daily meals are like?

Thanks everyone! :-)

Thanks!! :-)

So happy weighed myself this morning and the scale read 299.0!!! I haven't been in the 200's in years feels so good! Was banded Halloween total down 24 by my scale 29 by the doctors scale!

Congratulations! I'm close to this milestone too, I can't wait!

Since I started mushies I haven't lost any more weight! This week I'm on regular foods and I'm kind of concerned that I'm not losing. I've been working out at the gym and I'm so close to being back in the 200's I'm 302.2 started pre op diet at 323. I'm just so anxious to hit my first big goal any suggestions on how to get the scale back moving?

I was wondering what was happening to me, I gained a couple pounds too on mushies, I'm gonna start working out to get them back off

Hang in there you two!!!!! I hope your approvals and surgery dates come sooner! Fingers crossed

Wow, I'm so happy I'm not alone I was recently banded and the taste in my mouth is horrible!!! I never had this before, constantly popping mints!!!!

I'm down 18lbs since one week pre op til now!!! Start at the gym this evening!!

I've lost 18lbs since pre-op and surgery a week ago, can't wait to go shopping in my closet, I think I will try this weekend!!!

Thank you so much!!! I'm going to try that today!!! :-)

Banded on Halloween, was doing fine except gas pains now all of a sudden my left shoulder is killing me and under my left breast is aching. How long does the gas pains last???? Very uncomfortable right now!

I'm a week post op today and just started experiencing the gas pains in my shoulder yesterday and it sucks because today is going to be my first day back at work! I'm hoping the gas pains only last a couple weeks!!!

Congratulations!!!! :-)

Thanks everyone for your feedback!!! I meet with my doctor tomorrow for my post op visit I will ask then!

I was banded on the 31st, I took my prescribed medicine on 11/2 and crushed it like it was recommended. Then on 11/3 and 11/4 I decided to take it regular just to see how it would make me feel since it's not a huge pill (size of a capsule aspirin) Is it ok to keep taking in regular form since it goes down without a problem??
