  21. Hey..so confused. I was banded on 4/7. I have lost 21 pounds 11 pounds was pre-op. This whole week the scale has not moved ! I started mushies Monday. I have been walking 1 mile everyday.
  22. Oh gosh ok..glad this is normal ?? I guess lol. I was worried it had something to do with the mushies stage.. ohh fun
  23. So today is day 2 of mushies..was doing great. But today I had the worst diarrhea attack..it seems after an hour after eating I have to go. Is this normal ? Worried
  24. I was banded on the 7th . Just wondering what to expect at my first visit with surgeon. I know they will be ripping off the bandages. .oouucchh

  26. So next week is three weeks I have been banded...and I start mashies/ soft food. Some examples on my list is tuna salad, eggs, runny oatmeal ect.. I am actually terrified to start eating. Did anyone have trouble with mushiness ? Or will it all go down easy?
