  3. Hello eveyone, I had my first fill and I must say after looking at everyone's weight loss , I'm not doing to well I've lost 11lbs total. I have started the gym last week I went 3 days and worked out for 30-45 mins so hopefully this will help. And also I have a concern about mt restricion after being fill the Doc said he put 6ccs....but I think it had to been more like .6 right? I still feel pretty hungry but when I do eat I feel like something is getting stuck in my back, kinda like if you eat to fast and feel like something is stuck in your esphogas is that call restriction? I mean I don't feel full just something weird also I think I've been PBing cause when I feel that feeling alot of saliva comes up.....any advice would be great __________________

  5. I did it went and had my first fill...... It was not as bad as I made it out to be 1)didn't feel any pain 2)no pressure 3)no blood but then agian I freaked myself out so much that I had a magazine over my face for the first part of the fill, then I had to sit up with the needle in the port and drink so water!!!!eww at that point I was not thirsty and was a lil hard to take big drinks like they want you too.It's so funny when I sat up with that needle in me I felt like the lady (Mia) in the movie Pulp Fiction LOL...anyways today I'm on a soft food diet maybe it's just me but I still feel like I don't have the restriction like I did when I first had the surgery?
  6. Hi everyone, I have some questions about what I'm noticing with my port, it seems for the last few days my site where the port is that it looks alittle more swollen than usual (surgery was 9/25) and it is feeling achey has anyboby had any of these problems/
  7. I take zoloft, 2 at nightime, I haven't had any problems with taking them even after my surgery.Hope this helps
  8. Thanks Stacy, I'm so hungry this am not to mention the monthly thing that comes around for us females doesn't help...I WANT TO EAT, EAT,EAT....This morning I had a cup of Chai tea at 5:30am protein drink at 7:00am and the tiger in my tummy is still loose. I am proud that I haven't ate any fast food, fried food or chips since my surgery. I can't wait untill my fill on 11/8/07
  9. errrr! looks like everyone #'s are dropping like crazy, are all of you working out at the gym ? If feel alittle left out I've only lost 11lbs:help:what are some of the things you guys eat in a day? example 1-breakfast 2-mid morning snack? 3-lunch 4-snack? 5-dinner 6-snack?
  10. Good evening to everyone, I went to WalMart today and found some Chai tea made by Stash, so as I'm sitting here .......I'm sipping a cup now and I must say it is pretty darn good! I'm still going to try the Big Train brand after I finish this brand. I'm hoping it will be more creamier and richier than the Stash brand...Thanks everyone
  11. where can I buy these chai teas?
  12. Hi to all finer niners, so far I HAVE LOST 11LBS begin wt--189 weight on 10/11/07---178lbs first fill is 11/8/07.....Yipee
  13. Hi Fellow Sept Banders, I had my band surgery on 9/25/07.........yipee!
  14. Hi Liz and Arria, I'm happy the both of you don't have to much longer before your first fill, I have my appt (fill ) on Nov 8th yipeee! Do you ladies know how much saline you will get for the first fill? I heard my Doctor has started something new when doing his fills, I heard he fills the port with as much as a person can stand then tests the persons restriction by having the person drink water If everything goes down ok then he'll leave that much saline in the band , if the person feels to restricted he will take some of the saline out. I heard he started doing this after alot of his patient were getting discourged because of such a small amout of weight being lost by his patients. SOUNDS GOOD TO ME!!!!! Keep me informed on the outcome of your first fill. Kelli :cool:
  15. Hi fellow banders, Well it's been 16 days now and I feel as though I'm wanting to eat more than when I first was banded errr! Has any one gone threw this? I know my band is so new and I haven't had a fill or anything.......but I want to feel that full feeling like I did in the first week after surgery....:rolleyes
