I have the same problem...been watching what I eat and exercising but I keep dropping 4 lbs than I gain it right back I go for a fill a fill tomorrow and I hope it will help me a little.

I was able to wear a tampon thank goodness!

We all did it can't believe August is over

Plus talked a out a fill since i'm so hungry but tried everybody ideas and was able to get through it!

You guys are awesome. Off pain meds and graduated to mushy and try some solid food!

One more question.. When you eat do you get the hiccups. Ever time i eat or even drink sometimes i get the hiccups really bad. i have also noticed i havent lost any weight since surgery but i havent been using the bathroom much either? i havent gained any either so should i be happy?

Thats wonderful ideas!!! I love tomato soup and for some reason never thought about eating it as well as i love cream of wheat and those are both wonderful ideas. i guess in the back of my mind i only thought i could have water, broth, and popcicles and im sorry but im tired of them. Ive been eating back potatos, kinda like mash potatos but i mush them up as much as i can and add a little sour cream and i only eat about half and im full!

ok that makes sense now. thank you!

utcanuser congrats!! thats so exciting to hear that you are losing weight expecially from your doctor! I go see mine for my post-op on thursday which will officially be 9 days post-op and i hope to hear some kind of news! but hey better to stay the same that to gain right Our August month is almost up but excited to see all of us starting our new lives!! Good Luck on everybody going in on the 30th and 31st...

I know this will sounds weird but what you do you mean?

Just banded and I understand what the green zone is just ready to feel it out!

Congrats beachbound! Only a 3 days left! I've found this site wonderful everyone has been so nice and right there to help me through everything. Good luck on your surgery!

I have only had the lap band for 6 days so I know I can't answer most of your questions but I would recommend to start over! Tomorrow is a new day and make it a new day! Keep your head up and don't give up! Losing weight is a challenge but would you be able to keep it off with out the band? I wish you luck and i'm sorry your going through such hard time

Congrats!! Hearing wonderful milestones makes me feel happy about my decision! keep up the good work

I do Protein Shakes and it's just not enough. I even tried chicken broth and everything that I had pre-op that would make me full but for some reason i'm starving. I called my doctor and he told me to eat some yogurt and if I had to I could have some pureed food but not to over do it. But now i'm scared to even have pureed food because of me stretching my stomach this early on Now clam cowder doesn't it have chunks, because that's my favorite Soup and I could live on that!! o and good job on your guys weight lose!!!! makes me know I did the right decision!
