Thanks everyone!!

Lmbo@ memphis fan!!! I couldn't feel mine either until today (1st post-op appt). Doc put my hand on it, feels like its deep and kinda weird honestly..lol..

I us lactaid© and all of it's products.. In fact It's 1 week post-op for me as well and I can now have soft food.. I found lactaid © cottage cheese in the store today. Also I find that lactaid pills prior to eating is a great help..Hope this helps you. Good luck it's sooooo worth it...

It was fantastic today! I stepped on yhe scale and was down 13lbs since monday.. My blood pressure was the lowest it's been since I can't even remember!! My Dr. Graduated me to soft foods today and the menu was pureed chicken breast, babyfood sweet pot, and cottage cheese... Can we say Thanksgiving !!! Lol [ATTACH]24594[/ATTACH]

My surgery was the 30th also.. I am still really sore how about you?

I am 3 days post op and still really sore..

Really sore for the most part.. I don't really have a problem swallowing or keeping down my protein shake.. I was able to have watery cream of wheat (1/2 cup) for breakfast.. But I am still stuffed or at least I feel that way.. Is this normal?

Thanks Dawn!!! Everything went well and I go home tomorrow..

I was banded today?! No problems at all, everything went smooth.. Pain on a scale of 1-10? 5 and that was just at the site and some gas.. I was up and walking an hour after surgery.. I will be discharged in the morning!! Let the journey begin!!

I jad to do the 6mo as required thru my husbands ins. So it was a monthly thing for me.. Goos luck with your journey!!

I was fired because although they were aware of the impending surgery they did not want to give me to time off.. I was still ob my 90day probation.. So I will jave plenty of recovery time.. I get banded tomorrow morning..

I can't believe it is finally here.. I am so nervous,and excited all at the same time!! I hope I can sleep tonight.. I am scheduled at 9am, but I have to be there at 7am. What should I expect when I get there?!

I am on day 7 pre-op and today was the first day of diaherra.. Horrible and embarassing!! Smh.. I am on bariatric advantage protein shakes 3x a day and 2 bariatric advantage bars a day.. I have 7 more days of this and I swear I have put myself on time out for the past 3 days in a row... Lol I slipped in a cup of broth and that might have caused my problem today.. Ugh but I wanted just another taste in my mouth other than strawberry !!! Lol come on July 30th!! I am sooooo ready!!
