    Gaining Weight?!?!

    So glad to hear that many of us bandsters are going through the same thing! Thank you for all the advice and encouragement! I will definately look into "bandster hell", I just hope I'm not stuck in there for too long . All the years of dieting and failing...I need for this to work!
  2. I was eating soups, yogurt, and oatmeal 10 days post op. You can still drink occasional protein shake, just to get your protein in, which helps with the healing process.

    July Bandsters In Need Of A Buddy

    Good job on drinking your water! I ate Greek yogurt too. I love the texture - its so smooth! It was so great to change things up and actually eat real food...even though it just slides down your throat...lol. I was so sick and tired of those shakes! I am starting my soft food phase today - really happy about that. But I can eat more and more every day and THAT scares me! I'll have to wait till 22August, my next appt, to get a fill. But I think I really need it. They tools me they only put about 3ml of Water into my 8ml band at first because of the stomach swelling during the surgery. But as I heal and swelling goes down - I definately don't get full as fast. I guess I'll just have to keep my appetite under control with my awesome will power (yeah, right...lol) till my appt. Keep up the good work! P.S. Must be nice to have summers off! Are you a teacher??

    To Sarah 72: I'll be your buddy! I was banded 18 July and also had a hiatal hernia repaired. Hang in there! It will truly get better and better every day! I had my first post-op appointment today and I feel great! My surgeon said I don't look like someone who just underwent a major abdominal surgery! Lol!

    San Antonio here also! Just got banded July 18 and doing good so far. I lost a few pounds the first few days after surgery, but have been stuck ever since I started the "slider" phase with soups, oatmeal, and yogurt Curious if anyone else recently banded encountered this?? Thanks!
