  2. I was banded 3/19 am down 20... Had my second fill today and have 7.9 in a 12cc band... I don't have restriction either, I know they say it takes time but I am getting impatient!
  3. I had my first fill on Monday, I feel some restriction for sure.. I ate lunch a little too fast and boy did my band tell me! It's a learning process... Now my question how much restriction should I have?

  6. Just thought I would give an update. I was banded 3-19.. Have lost 26lbs to date, I feel incredible so much more energy! I walked a 5k yesterday I am happy to report my incisions are healed and I no longer have any port pain! Just challenging myself to be better everyday! Ready for a fill...April 29th!
  7. Thank you everyone! I am 10 days post op and still on mushiness... Always hear people talk, nice to get an idea!

  18. I really struggled the first 5 days...day 4 was the emotional day.. I am at day 7 and although I don't have much energy I feel more like my self!
  19. I was feeling a little more hungry.. So I took some Tyson's ready cooked ckn and added it my soup before I puréed... Gave me more protein and actually only got 3oz down.. Might be worth a shot!

  28. I took it easy again today, and my husband insisted I go to wal mart with him if for anything else to get me out of the house and do some walking... Guess what? I sat upright in the car for 10 min there and back, no problems... I came back home and am back on the couch taking it easy... But very optimistic!

  33. Talked to Drs office. They said most people take 1-2 weeks off and everyone is different. That is the incision that people have the most tenderness with nothing to be worried about and to take a few more days to heal. They are going to call me tomorrow to check on me and if its not better by the end of the week they want to see me.
