  4. I've been doing great. I have had one fill and go in on Thursday for my 2nd. I feel like i am understanding my band better. I haven't weighed myself for a couple weeks but i did fit into a size 14 yesterday. I haven't fit in a 14 for years i started this journey in a size 20.

  11. I'm in the mushies stage right now. My favorite is low fat refried beans with some enchilada sauce on top and some sour cream on the side. It's so good
  12. I just had my first fill yesterday. My Dr. said nothing to eat or drink 4 hours prior.

  15. You can do it. I did 4 weeks of liquids post op. You're healing and if your Dr said to wait, then waiting is what you should do. Hang in there

  18. If it is the taste you love, my surgeon did say that you could have Diet soda if you left it out long enough for it to go flat. No carbonation left in it = no problem. However, i think flat pop is gross so its not worth it to me, but everyone is different.
  19. I have two weeks left on liquids. I'm ago glad someone started this thread. I'm counting down the days to pureed food.
  20. I had the same thing happen to me. I gained about 60 lbs in 4 months while they figured our it was my thyroid. I was just banded 2/22 so i hope to see such a great change in myself. You look great and are a great inspiration.
