  2. I only have 2 one in my belly button and one right between my Brest just under my bra line
  3. Me either I baked it and cut it up but it was on my list and I was hungry I cut it pretty fine...
  4. Ok I just posted the same thing before I read this I'm having the same issue I'm only 8. Days out and want a fill!!!
  5. Yay congrats on the 22lbs I want a fill but I've only had it a week I feel almost like I don't even have it
  6. Ok I started mushy foods my doctor says I can have chicken and fish and such and if I clock the veggies to mush I can have them, I feel like I've ate a lot I feel like I have no restriction at all like I never got the surgery almost, I'm eating less but i was expecting to vomit with the dinner I ate of course I only ate Breakfast and dinner but its only been one week and I feel like I already need a fill in!! How soon can u get a fill? Is there a rule? My next appointment isn't until the 30th!
  7. What kind of pre op diet did u guys do? Mine was just 24 hour clear liquids....and it looks like a lot of the weight was lost pre op
  8. Lol they were delicious and I'm still full!!! Lol I had mine in Florida..

  10. I was also banded the 30th and lost 12 lbs right away but now I'm stuck....lol just got cleared for exercise
  11. Congratulations u look great!
  12. I'm one week out I had the same problem they said as long as its not red and infected looking and if u don't have a fever it's fine it's normal because u use ur abdomen muscles more than u realize and it's basically from general every day movement
  13. This made me almost cry I'm so sorry I couldn't imagine going through all the appointments, pre-op and everything and having to have it removed good luck with everything I'm so sorry
  14. Good luck don't feel bad if the insurance denies you I was denied like 4 times my doctor actually personally called and argued with my insurance company for 30 minutes on Monday the 29 th they finally said yes my doctor basically threw me in the OR the next morning it's been one week I'm feeling great and down 12lbs!
  15. I talked to my doctor about my energy level and they told me its normal because ur basically having food withdrawal per say but once u start actually eating protein it should help because I drank the shakes and the doctor said its good to drink them (I was drinking one a day) and she said once I eat meat ill feel better good luck How much longer are you on liquids?
  16. Good luck guys but warning my doctor didn't warn me before hand you will feel fine personally I didn't even feel like I had surgery but the gas pain in my arm was excruciatingly painful so walk. Walk walk and when ur done walking walk some more belching isn't proper etiquette but its the only thing that helps keep some gas-x drops or dissolvable strips they help too
  17. Congratulations I hope I hit my goal that fast (80) great job!
  18. That's awesome congratulations ur for sure a Sucess story and an inspiration to everyone
  19. Wow 43lbs would put me at my 1/2 way mark go u...we're u hungry? That's amazing how much have u lost total? And how long have u had it if h don't mind me asking
  20. Wow I went to the doc yesterday and don't go back until the 30th one month later I'm already prepared to ask for a fill... I get solids Saturday and I'm not sure if I'm hungry or just miss the way food taste because everyone around me is eating normal and....this is sad but it's like I'm jealous I want to lose weight this is what I want and I can do it but it would be easier if u felt like I did the first 4 days...not hungry lol
  21. But it's only been a week...I start mushy food tomorrow...I hope it helps
