The only pain I felt was when I had to use my stomach muscles, Getting out of the bed, getting up from the couch etc, I took my drugs for 4 days and that was all that was needed. I wonder how long these stiches are going to take to heal though. I couldn't take a shower/bath for 72 hours, and no sex for 4 weeks, that's killing me. I only have one child if you can rock a bikini after giving birth to 5 I'm very jealous. At the hospital I didn't stay long 30 minutes, I got up walked around, had some Water and was discharged. I have not counted any calories and have lost about 25 pounds, I was banded 12/2/2013.

you have a great pre op diet I couldn't eat half the items. I need your doctor

4 days that a lot, that why you loose so much weight all this liquid diet. My doctor better not make me wait 4 days to eat after a fill I will be angry.

Thanks everyone for the support, I am a week post op on mushy foods. I don't see my doctor until 6 weeks out. Is it normal to be hungry because I don't get my first fill until January 16, 2014. I have read that people feel stuck but I have not experienced this. I don't eat more than a 1/2 cup at one setting but I don't have had any problems. I have been eating popsicles, muscle milk Protein shakes, broth, creamy Soups, crystal light, yogurt, cottage cheese, etc. Also, Once I start regular foods will I be able to eat sandwiches. I am so craving bread and rice. I don't want to eat Protein Shakes forever. When did everyone start working out. I am thinking about starting to go back to the gym doing just the elliptical or the treadmill for 45 minutes.

Thais great. I was just banded today and I am not feeling bad at all. Good Luck

I am going to be banded on 12/02/2013 in Arizona . Thanksgiving was very difficult with the preop diet. I cant wait to get the surgery and the post op diet.

Hi All, My band date is 12/2/2013. I am super excited and nervous but ready to start this new journey.
