    HELP!

    Hi I'm 6 weeks post op I was eating bake fish and broccoli with avocado. At first eating with no problem all of a sudden stomach and chest pain I thought I was going to lose my mind, mouth watering running to the bathroom. I did feel a little better I'm still burping food is going up and down like a yo-yo I think I'm stuck no more broccoli!! I'm so upset with myself I can't sip on anything because I'm back in the bathroom. What do I do?

    Pain first fill

    I went to my Doctor today he told me he gave me 2 cc when I got the band (surgery) that explain a lot how I was feeling. Today he put 1 in half cc he told I have 3 in a half cc. I'm really uncomfortable is this normal after a fill? I'm going to start shakes for a few days then start back with solids. Thank you for your replies.

    Question for everyone

    Hi everyone, I get my first fill Aug. 6, on the 8th it will be one month since I had my Band. I was wondering if anyone ever had a 4cc or more put in the first time you received your first fill. Thank You for you reply
  7. I went to my Doctor appt everything is going well, he was pleased I loss 24 lbs. If I lose 15 or more pounds by Aug 6 I won't get a fill. I went to the gym today I only did 40 min on the elliptical nothing else. I will add more later It really feels good not being hungry!! Happy Weight loss we will reach our goals together! !!

    Pre-Op diet mistakes

    Try not to cheat anymore because your surgery is in a few day's.You should be ok as long you didn't gain weight. I cheated the first 4 days with crackers and ice cream. I was scared that my liver would be to big but it wasn't. I wish you the best drink plenty water that really helped me.
  10. Today my brother had his party at my house. I was on my feet to long making plates and cutting up the watermelon. I put a a big piece in my mouth my daughter said mom! I remembered I got the lap band. I spit that in the trash. How in the world I forgot, I have to be careful. I'm having more pain now then the first day. I'm 5 days post op I would like to thank everyone for your advice you showed me so much support since day 1 this is the best forum:-)
  11. Best wishes, I know what you're going through.. it will be over after while. Good you're getting a recliner that really helped me. Post when you can let us know how you're doing.
  12. Hi I was banded on the July 8 I'm feeling pretty good. I know I can't go to the gym I was wondering can I walk 2 or 3 times a day for 30 min I'm use to working out since I started my weight loss journey. Have any one started walking or working out less than 1 week post op?
  13. I ate a half of Popsicle and few sips of diet tea for Breakfast ...I feel so full I can't eat or drink anything else. I'm surprise to have restriction without a fill. I'm going to wait for 3 or 4 hours then I will have my Protein shake.... I will mix 4 oz only not sure how much I will be able to take in. Have anyone else had this problem before? Thank you
  14. Hi everyone, I'm home really soar not to much gas pain I finally took something for pain. I did really good my doctor send me home. I been walking and sleeping a lot trying to drink my fluids. I am happy it's over!!!!! I will post again under post up HAPPY WEIGHT LOSS!!!!
  15. I was told the first few days I will have low energy because of low carbs. I take B -12 and supplement, that really help me. Please don't cheat I regret eating a few cracker two days in a roll. Make sure you're getting enough water that will help
