  4. Yes I can feel the difference. It's harder to get all the liquids down but it's better in the long run. My band started at 3cc,now I am at 4cc.
  5. First fill today also. 1cc added. Don't know what the band cc is but am happy right now.
  6. 34 days post op already. Dr talked about a fill next week. We will see. Been fighting the hunger snacking. It's hard. Had the 100 calorie pack of almonds during a meeting this morning. Seemed to help a bit.
  7. I am 32 and was banded on January 21st of this year. I use an app called my fitness pal. If anyone uses it feel free to add me.
  8. Do you use my fitness pal is what I was trying to say
  9. I have lots of stuff from sizes 32w all the way down to size 26w. Anyone interested, please contact me. Looking to sell cheap and get stuff out of the house.
  10. Thanks. I will try to read or something. I have a few books to still read.
  11. Feeling so unsatisfied right now. I seem to eat in the night more than one should. I don't know what to do. I am not hungry, just bored.
  12. 22 days post op now. I am struggling though. I am hungry and can usually get my dinner down. Problem is, later in the night, I am hungry again.
  13. Does anyone know any good recipes for someone in the 2nd phase diet? I can only have turkey, fish, tofu, eggs and chicken. Very limited. 3 oz each. Please help with ideas.
  14. Where are you from and what's the cost you are talking about?
  15. Sorry, I misread that you want elastic waistband. I have jeans and capris.
  16. I have some things size 28-30. I live in New York. Message me back.
  17. Well last night's dinner was ok but could only get half of it down.
  18. First day of phase 2 and I am loving it already. 3oz boneless skinless chicken breast with a cream of mushroom sauce over it. Vegi is zucchini with a garlic and pepper mix on it. 2.5oz of that. Mmmmmm, I am in heaven.
  19. Gas x is your best friend along with a heating pad for your shoulder. Try to walk as much as your body can tolerate. As for the pulling, try an ice pack. It may be swollen still. If that doesn't help, call the doctor. I hope this helps.
  20. Omg, pop a stitch. How do I know if that happens? I am scared now.
  21. I ate it straight today. Idk what to do now. Will it cause the band to slip?
  22. 2 weeks post op..... Can cottage cheese do harm? My Dr said protein shakes and full liquids until I see the dietician again on Friday coming up. Problem is, I am so darn hungry. Please help. I don't wanna have problems.
  23. Don't feel bad. I am in the same situation. I can't wait to start creamy food. I cheated today. I had a few cashews though. Chewed them to the point of peanut butter. I feel horrible bow about it. Hope I didn't do any harm.
  24. Thanks. Could I also take aleve or is that a no no?
