  14. Congrats. Hope your doing well besides the liquids. Your band maybe too tight in hear that's one thing. I also tried sport drinks sugar free. We should be on pure liquids now but my menu is so short. Only says far free puding yogurt cream Soups very nasty in cans cream of wheat farina. Skim milk that's about it for the next 10 days. I hope I can survive.

  19. I just turned 29 in aug and I've been overweight my whole life although because I'm tall I never looked obese but after having my dd at 25 and going threw gestational diabetes by 28 my type II diabetes went out of control very quick and I needed a fast healthy weight loos to reverse it I was banded Monday i still feel disappointed in my self for not being able to loose weight on my own but I understand that I chose this to better my health. And it maybe hard but it will be worth it. Best of journey to all of us
  20. 4 small ones all look the same size but I don't like the pattern of the ports I feel they could have been symmetrical
  21. Congrats girl I was banded Monday 19th today is day 3 and I am on liquids I've tried farina and Greek yogurt but the taste was awful and i was only able to consume two tea spoons of each. I follow the times in my diet for food and shakes. But there is only few items we can consume for 2 weeks. Like is that for real? Or is there more that's just not listed.
  22. Thank you for the input. Would you say your diabetes I reversed. Or just controlled.
