It is so natural to be nervous. I just got my band in February and only had two weeks notice from the time the insurance approved my surgery to my actual surgery date. I was really worried about all of that same stuff. Now I am 6 months past my surgery and I can tell you I am so happy with my results. It has been a little slower than I expected but I am losing weight and that is what counts. It is so exciting to look at pictures of myself from before surgery and pictures of myself now. Even though I think that the scale should say something different the fact that my clothes fit better and I am finally able to buy smaller sizes means so much more for me right now. I promise you it will be ok. Just take one day at a time and focus on that. 6 months will fly by and you will be so happy with the results.

I don't know if I have reached my green zone yet. I had three adjustments which filled the band and my last one took .25cc out because I was too restricted. I think I am pretty close. I do feel full after about 1c of food and I stay full. I cannot eat bread either. Anything that is a little gummy like tortillas or soft breads I cannot eat but if it is toasted its fine. Before my last adjustment I couldn't eat any solid protein because it hurt my stomach and I would get full very quickly. Since they took that little bit out it has been great. I haven't gotten sick for about 4 weeks now, which is fantastic because before I was feeling sick almost everyday.
