  12. When every restaurant meal results in leftovers for the next meal When my dog starts following me around as I will now bend over or get down on floor for a pet, rub belly season
  13. I am still having gas. The more I move, the better it is. BANded Aug 13.
  14. I read and followed my doctors instructions. I am not hungry or light headed. I didn't gain this weight in a week and realize the lapband is a tool. I am increasing my exercise slowly and learning to eat properly. Good luck on your journey
  15. Congratulations on your decision to start the journey to good health. I am on day 16 post op, 10 pounds down and feeling great. I walked every time the gas pain hit. I am 55. Taking back control of my life and hope I will have many successes to share. First goal is to get rid of my sleep apnea.
  16. I took 2.5 weeks to recover to ensure I was on track with good prep and my new life. Starting the walking routine and ensuring I am drinking my water. I want this to work. Changing your eating habits and. Lifestyle is exciting and fun. Enjoy the journey!
  17. Day 15 for me. Iwould say ensure to rest and regain stamina slow. Lots if walking. Follow the doctors and nurses orders and everything should be great
  18. I would love to go back to volunteering in my community. Right now I have to focus on me. Perhaps when I reach a milestone
  19. Fantastic. Keep up the fantastic journey.
  20. A model for Victoria Secret
