Thanks everyone. Since I don't own a scale I think I'm gonna go to my aunts house (who had gastric bypass) and at least weigh myself once a week.

Today is day 6 and my emotions are all over the place. I'm happy because I FINALLY get to eat something other than a Protein shake! It has been a long road. On the other hand I am TERRIFIED to step on a scale. I have not weighed myself since surgery day. *302* I was shocked to learn that I actually lost weight BEFORE I got banded. I've struggled my entire adult life and half my childhood with my weight. I keep thinking its too good to be true. What if I still weigh 302 or even worse what if I GAIN weight?!?

yes!! the vanilla is my favorite it kinda taste like cake to me lol

thats the Protein shakes that i drink.

i suppose to start the next step -thicker liquids- in 2 days.

im on day 5 of clear liquid and i am starving! up until today the Protein Shakes have been enough for me but today my so hungry that im in pain *stomach cramping* is it too early to start pureed Soups?

I lost 9 pounds

I live in Baytown I just recently got banded *4/24/13*

Congrats on the new baby and band! I was banded April 24th as well!

So far this weekend is going great. I woke up this morning and I was able to get out of bed without that much help. I took some gas-x last night so the bloated feeling is slowly going away. And the best part.... I STILL don't have an appetite!

Thanks everyone. I'm sending my husband to the store now.

Your abdomen was filled with gas when they put your band in so yes' date=' it's very normal to feel bloated.[/quote']

Thanks! I thought I had did something wrong.

I'm on day 3 and I've been drinking nothing but liquids and I feel so bloated is this normal?

You have to walk. Don't want that has setteling in. I hear its horrible. It will get better as the days pass. Don't be hungry is music to my ears........that's good!!!!!!

I try to walk as much as I can. They told me to get up and walk around every 45 minutes so that's what I been doing.

How are you feeling today?

I feel ok I guess. As long as I'm sitting down I'm good but as soon as I get up to walk around I be in so much pain. The good this is I don't be hungry which is a total shock to me.

How are u feeling @Jaideeian

My stomach is kinda sore on the left side and my throat hurts a little bit but other than that I feel ok.

Take it easy an good luck !!! I'm glad everything went well ...

My mama is here to help me with my boys *Ages 4 & 5* so I been resting.

Congratulations!!! Glad to see everything went well. Dr Hollis I will see for my follow up care. I'm going to have surgery done in Dallas by his partner. Do you feel hungry?

No I don't feel hungry but I've been sipping tea because my throat is sore.

The left side of my stomach is sore also. I've been walking around the house a little bit also. It's hard for me to pay down too so I been sitting up in the bed.

On my post-op diet sheet it lists tea so it might be ok. I'll call to make sure and congrats! I had surgery today also *4/24/13*

I had my surgery today and I'm at home resting. Dr. Hollis is soo nice and caring. He came and spoke to me before surgery to see how I was and answer all my questions and also afterwards. I'm in a little bit of pain but its not all that bad. Overall it was a good experience Oh and I'm down 9 pounds from the pre-op diet!!

Tommorow is the big day for me!! I'm super excited and EXTREMELY nervous! lol Is there anyone who can tell me what to expect or NOT to expect tomorrow?

I got my approval today!!!!! Woooohoooo!!!!!!

Congratulations!!!

Anyone in the East Houston/Baytown Area?? I'm getting banded April 24th.
