  1. Thanks ladies it was a little bit of both I think my swelling Is completely down now. I am a little more hungry now, but I still haven't been consuming more than 700 calories a day and I've lost 25/ 40 pounds in about three weeks. I put two numbers because I went to one of my surgeons closer offices and they had a manual scale and it read 15 less than my scale at home so idk which one is right. I think my personal scale. But, I guess ill see when I go back into the normal office for my full on August 9th.
  2. So I'm 9 days out of surgery and I'm on mushies. Really haven't had an appetite ,so I've just been drinking my protein shakes so I won't be completely weak during the day. The pain has been pretty uncomfortable ,but the doctor said everything is normal. I would think I would be more hungry now since the swelling is down ,but I'm not. I've lost 10pounds since surgery for a total or 20 pounds since Pre Op, so that's exciting.I'm just ready to get in the gym and back to work!
  3. I've been struggling with my weight for my whole life but, five years ago my dad passed away when I was 15 and my weight has reached it's highest. When i was 17 I started the process of getting the band , but my insurance stopped when I turned 18 and I wasn't unable to finish the process. So 2 years later, I simply asked my grandparents could they pay for me to get the lap band, and with no hesitation they said yes. I went for a consultation and set my surgery. I'm super excited about being banded in less than a week.I'm on a 14 day liquid diet the first week was so hard. I wasn't used to the taste of the Protein shakes and had to really get used to it. Now that I've got used to the taste, it has been much easier. I lost 10 pounds in 5 days and that definitely has given me a push to realize that the hard work has been paying off. I read a lot of posts on here daily and it has surely been a motivation. Therefore, I will be tracking my journey on here and sharing my experiences with the lap band.
  4. Went into surgery at 6 this morning everthing with so smoothe. Woke up in a lot of pain and nausea ,but they gave me meds through an iv that worked really good n quick. True Results San Antonio has amazing staff! I've been off and on sleep for about 3 hours but , I feel great sore n still a little tired but, all is well. I'm so happy about my decision and ready for my journey with my band;)
