Do not give up on yourself. You need to do what is best for you. Find what works for you. There is a light at the end of this tunnel. We can't pick our family. Remove yourself from the negativity (family and friends). I was banded on 5/24/13. Take it one day at a time. I believe in you.

When a child starts walking, they weill fall, but they get back up. They keep at it until they master it. You are like the child trying to take their first steps. Do not beat yourself up. You can do what you think you cannot do. You are worth it. No one is more importasnt than thou art.

I had my first fill on 7/3/13. I went to Jamaica for a week, 7/21/13 thru 7/28/13. I did not gain or lose weight. I ate almost within the guidelines. After my fill, I am starving most of the time, 4 ozunces just does not seem to do it. Thanks to support groups like this, is how I obtain information. How do you get in the required daily Protein requirement? Should you still drink a Protein Shake? I was banded on 5/24/13 and have lost 45 pounds. I practice eating slowly and notice I do not get heartburn as much. I found out if i drink at least 64 ozunces of Water it sometimes help with the hunger. Prior to surgery, I was taking insulin 4 times a day and oral medication. Now I take one dose of long acting medication and oral medication. sometimes i experience hypo-glycemic episodes. I planning to call my surgeon's office today. I do not have any idea how much is in my band. I have started to impiement an exercise program. I do have more energy. I appreciaate any thoughts or advice. I am so thankful/grateful for this site. My grand-children are happy,their grandmother can do things with them.
