  4. Well 1 month down and I got my first fill. They put 2cc in. Now liquids for 2 days and pureed for 2 days. But I'm down 33 pounds and I'm cleared to go to the gym. Finally! I was banded on December 1st.

  15. Okay I'm now 2 weeks post Op. Liquids only is over Thank God! I'm down 30 pounds! Pretty excited about that. I just can't wait to get back to strength training. Now I'm onto mushy/pureed food for two weeks. Just wanted to pop in and update everyone. I will update again in 2 weeks.

  17. I am 7 days post Op and I have 5 incisions but I can't feel my port underneath any of them. Where is everyone's port site any help would be great.
  18. I'm 5 days post Op and wondering can liquids get stuck. I've felt stuck twice in 3 days. Didn't puke or anything. I'm on all liquids so I was confused how could liquids get stuck.
  19. Had my first real uncomfortable feeling last night. I don't know if it was gas from the surgery or I just didn't sip the water I was drinking and gulp it down but I thought I was going to vomit. I calmed myself down and layed down and it went away in 30 minutes. Man that wasn't fun
