Its good to have a support system. I only told a few ( boyfriend which we had only been together for 3 months) he took me to upper GI and lapband surgery.without his help I would not have had the surgery. My mom , sister, and a couple of aunts were told and I don't recall none of them saying you look good. They may crack jokes and say" you look like you losing your butt". I often ignore them b/c none of them are in shape. W/o my bf support I would feel really lonely throughout this. One day hevsaid " why are your tiddy's hanging so low" and he knew it bothered me and he apolgized because said he b didn't mean any harm to me.

Lol! I've noticed how easy it is for me go up stairs at home. Sometimes may run up b/c I'm not out of breathe like the past. Congrats ok your NSV!

Did you lose your butt. I've always had high hips and I've only lost 28 lbs and my butt is shrinking. Any suggestions on how to keep a hump back there. ..

The 1st fill is more uncomfortable than anything because the anxiety is so high. My srgern is not that talkative and that cause me to be fear ful. However, the 2nd fill was many 30 sec. It stung just a sm amt and I was out.

I am 3 weeks post op and the soreness is just really fading away. I hate the scab that is in my incisions though. I know everyone heals differently so in time You will feel better. Good luck

Can anyone tell me if u t is okay to be hungry at 2 in the morning and satisfying that hunger. I work nights and often sleep most of the day away. I would eat a boil egg in the morning or make me a tasty omelet and maybe wake up about 5 or so and eat 3/4 Turkey meat balls or some chicken salad. I also have no energy and I think I'm not getting enough of food in me. Any suggestions would be greatly helpful.

You look great... I can't wait till I began to see progress!

Maybe a 10 ounce shake in the morning and for lunch and some chicken broth for dinner.

I feel the same way. I'm dying for some solid food right now and I'm 7 days out.

I was really scared because I could not Go to the bathroom for 5 days. Is that normal with the surgery procedure.

Hello , I'm new to lapband talk. I had my surgery on April 30th.Today was day 7 and I feel much better. I'm glad to hear someone else went through similar pain.
