KelzDown

I don't know if this is restriction or swelling but I can't eat much of anything. Lost 2 pounds! I know this will not last on just the first fill.

My first fill is tomorrow. Yippee! It has been the longest 7 weeks EVER. I hope this fill helps because I'm frustrated!

After two weeks of a very sensitive stomach or a very tight band, I am able to tolerate one meal per day plus shakes and yogurt. Maybe by next week I'll be able to have solids. Wish me luck!

Finally back on track and loosing weight!!

My scale needs a GPS because its going the wrong way! Can't wait to get a fill.

I'm down 4 lbs on the pre-op diet (yay me!!) I've been exercising and drinking a lot of water. I feel really good so far.

I haven't seen my Dr. in about a year. My journey has been going well during this time, My advice to everyone would be to make sure to take your vitamins and supplements to make sure your body is getting all the nutrients it needs. Also, make a life long commitment to EXERCISE!! it is the necessary evil we all need. It took me some time to realize this but the band will not work on its on.

Nothing in my band but still can't eat too much which is a good thing!

Surgery went well. I'm still very sore but I will survive.

I started the pre-op diet today. Its only a low cal low carb diet so its not so bad.

Starting to like the new me!!!

On vacation in NM and'm still walking a few miles in the mornings. i

Got my first fill! 3.5 cc's in a 10 cc band. Nice start. Lets see how this goes.

Every time I eat food I get sick. Since my fill I have been on mostly liquids. This is not normal.

Lost 6 pounds since first fill.

Emergency unfill last night. It has been a rough two week but finally some relief. I'll try it again in two weeks.

Day 8 post op and feeling normal again. The Dr. said I can eat soft proteins and stay hydrated.

3rd unfill in 4 months. I give up!!!

9 days post-op and feeling good. I'm eating regular food with no problems. I just need to chew longer. Old habits are hard to break!

Just because I can eat it doesn't mean I will! Skipping the banana split .

Surgery in the am. I hope that liver is small enough. I don't think I'll be getting much sleep tonight.
