I love the baby fills too! They do satisfy!

How r u ? I m happy that I am able to eat soft foods and only had one episode of wet tuna getting stuck. I felt bad for little while! I hate the constipation! My first after care visit is August 7th Surgery date: July 10 Pre-surgery:256 Day of surgery: 247 Current: 236

Hi everyone I was banded July 10th as well. I m down 10 lbs , still passing the gas , thank God. No pain meds in 2 days! Back to work half days starting tomorrow for 5 days! Ughhhhh! Feeling ok but don't like the shakes! Changed to EAS but still not a fan! Ready for purée food! 5 more days! Keep up the good work everyone!

I wonder why do many of us had hernias too? I am a RN but the researcher in me wants to know if there is a correlation between the hernias and the weight gain. I have never read that but I will be investigating it.

I will try a different brand I know I need the Protein in order to heal properly. I have Atkins shakes now but gonna try these other suggestions . Thanks!

I too don't like the shakes . I drank a little of one shake since my surgery on the 10th I feel stronger each day without the shakes . I m not a milk drinker and I forced myself to drink the shakes on the pre op diet but since we have a few more options now I m drinking no sipping Water crystal light and eating Jello and the fat free sugar free pudding chicken broth . Doing well on these. Thank God! I try the shakes but can't get much of them down .

I had my band done in the 10th I notice the pain eases more n more everyday! Hang in there! Are you walking? I kno it's hard when ur hurting but try to walk slowly it helps ! Well it helped me! Good luck n feel better!

I have an office desk job too! I dread all the meetings though! Ughhhhhhh! Don't miss that!

Yes I m n if I ever learn how to post pics here! LOL!

I m thankful we all made it thru our procedures with no complications and we are feeling better as the days go on. I m planning to go back to work on Wednesday but we'll c. How about u? Others when are u back at work?

I was banded yesterday at 9 am was home by 12 noon. I also had a hernia repaired. My shoulder pain was mostly in my left shoulder. It was horrible! I feel much better today! Praise God. I walked outside for 20 minutes today. Gas is finally passing. Just a little sore! So happy it's over! Ready for the new me!
