  1. i have no problems with shakes i can get down 8oz easy
  2. 8 weeks wow, good to know thanks , when are you planning on starting solid foods, or are you already?
  3. Cause i thought i was supposed to eat 4 ounces, it only happened once, didnt do that again
  4. Im 17 days post op.. thanks for the responses guys but i just don't feel right i quit smoking also so maybee its just the nicotine withdrawal messing with my head.
  5. Pre op i was 308LB Today day 17 i am about 283LB's. I am supposed to be in my mushy food phase but i can barely eat anything, maximum half and egg or 2 oz of a mushy food like mashed potatoes. Water is not my friend either can barely get down 4 ounces. However i can drink the water if its flavored and i can drink an 8oz protein shake. If i force myself to eat the 4 oz of mushy i most likely will vomit... is this normal? is is supposed to get better? am i worrying for nothing?
  6. Status Update: had surgery on 9/10

  11. @JoiaRox, thank you for the information, it seems like what i keep hearing everywhere i read is the lapband is not all its cracked up to be, and most people end up getting it removed.. does that sound right?
  12. just wanted to say hello, thinking of getting started on this journey, gathering info now i guess. checking out the pros and cons between lapband and Gastric sleeve. If anyone has some words of wisdom that would be great... thanks
