  14. No group just one doctor he has truly been great has called thru out the weeks to see how I am feeling and how the weightless is coming along. To my surprise he called me on Wednesday to see when i was going to the office also asked how much weight I had lost and told him 15 lbs it was my exact 3 week mark and he answer thAt was too little and I had to up my exercise. Now 3 weeks and two day post op I've lost 17 pounds. I'm not really doing much other than drinking plenty of water 1-2 protein shakes and high protein blended or mashed meals. Thanks for the support everyone.
  15. I sure hope he is in a better mood on tuesday since its mg first follow up after surgery, he said possible fill will take place that day, nervous about that : /
  16. Had surgery on 7/19 my starting weight was 242 I'm done to 225 nd my octor says its not enought. I'm so heartbroken I wanted o tll him if I taught I could have lost more I wouldn't have had surgery. I actually taught 17 pounds was good, what o I know :_ (
  17. I'm 29 and just got banded July 19th.
  18. I was banded one week ago and must say had little to no pain, has one gassy night but if say I'm 80% back to normal. Good luck and don't worry all will be ok.
  19. I had surgery the 19 and I'm heading back to work tomorrow I'm not 100% yet but I'd same a good 85%.
  20. Wishing you much success if you've succeeded in your battle with weight any other obstacle is simply that, you'll be great. Stay positive and you'll see positive results:).
  21. Hi nicci Yes I've been able toove around with no assistance I feel that's why I haven't had much pain other than on then on the actual incisions so far no regrets
  22. Hi Llene How r u ? I am feeling pretty well have had some pain in the incisions but not much. Only thing is I am feeling kind of hungry already not sure if normal but will address it on Tuesday when I see Dr. Choi, I also weighed myself today and was up 1 pound from surgery hard to believe since I've only been taking liquids and Jell-O
