lexx got a reaction from clarks4willie in 8 Days Post-Op, Gained About 5 Lbs, No Restriction, And Very DepressedI'm so confused how can you eat regular foods already? It's only been a week right? Can you be healed in that amount of time. I have 4 stages to go through. Day 2-5 fuilds, 1.5 weeks of full liquids, 1 week puréed food, 1 week soft foods then solid foods. I would be very careful what your eating just for your sake. I mean they stitch the band to your stomach I can't image those stiches like the ones on te outside are completely healed. Just be careful.
I to be honest felt hunger for the first time today and am also to eat only 1/4 to 1/2 of food at a time.

lexx got a reaction from Nayelli in 3 Day Post-Op Having Major Trouble Drinking All Of My Protein In.Hey nayelli,
I was banded on Monday soninguess that makes day 5. I completely understand how you feel. I was not hingreyvatvall the first 3 days. In fact I had to force myself to have at least 1 Protein shake a day. And the first one took about 4 hours to drink. Today is day 5 and I felt my first real hunger sign. Today I actually was able to have 3 Protein shakes and a bowl of Soup. Everyday gets easier.

lexx got a reaction from sandman27959 in Cant Sleep! Nervous! Today Is Surgery Day.You all are truly amazing. I'm very emotional today. I'm actually crying writing this. Surgery is at 12:30pm I'm in Toronto Canada and need to be there an hour before. Last night the time was flying by. I had to stop eating at 7pm then next thing I knew it was midnight and I could not drink anything. Now all of a sudden the time has stopped LOL.
