Congrats Slue on the date!

Glad everything went well for you!

Today, I had my first fill. I was nervous at first, but I didn't feel the needle going into the port. I banded with a 10 cc band, and the doctor gave me 4 cc today, and boy let me be the first one to tell you.....I can tell the difference already. My question for the forum what was your first fill?

Fenton, Good Luck with your surgery tomorrow!

Tennessee Here, west of Nashville

Thanks--hopefully when I get my first band I will be below the 200 mark. I knotice all of my clothes are getting really loose.

Yes, I think it was fluid retention, but I have since the 18th of February lost 6 additional pounds.

I was banded on 2-4-08, and I have been losing weight since I was banded. This week I gained one pound, and I know it's not much weight....but I want to continue losing weight. I have increased my cardio workout to an average of 45 minutes on the t-mill. Any suggestions?

I was banded on 2-4-08 and I am losing weight, but this week I gain one pound.....I know it not much, but I want to continue to lose and not gain. I have increased my time on the trendmill. I am averaging 45 minues on the t-mill. So did anyone else gain weight...during the first couple weeks.

First congrats on your surgery. I was banded on 2-4, and love it

I went to the doctor's today, and since my surgery, I lost 10 lbs, which I think is great in itself. I am on my way to the gym to hit the weights.:mad:

Quinn, Congrats on the band!

Please ignore this thread..........I saw where it has been addressed on the previous thread!

Wanted to know if anyone use the compression shirts made by Under Armour. I heard they were good to use when the weight start to come off? Any suggestions?:thumbdown:

I was banded on February 4, 2008, and everything seems to be going fine. I was able to wean myself on Hydrocodone. I like to thank everyone for the support on this forum.

Feeling fine............my incisions are itching which is a good sign they are healing. Everything seems to be working toward being normal.

Congrats on your surgery....I was banded on 2-4-08 as well.

Congrats Quinn on your new life (smiles). I was banded on 2-4-08, and everything is going great for me at this time. Welcome to the forum.

Congrats Mikers and Felton my procedure was on Monday, still sore haven't had a BM yet, but waiting on it.

That's sounds great--to be a support for each other. Yes I was excited and nervous, but I had God on my side, and with Him everything is possible. Good Luck on your surgery.

I usually lie on my back because of the C-PAP machine. After surgery I really didn't have the appetite to each much; for example I ate 3 teaspoon of jello and I was full. The best thing is walking!

Well I am officially a BANDSTER. The procedure wasn't not bad at all. I am quite sore, but really haven't have an appetite yet. I ate four teaspoons of SF jello and stuffed like a Thanksgiving Turkey. The key is to continue to walk and keep your lungs free by using the inspirametor.

Today is day that the Lord has make it! Today at approximately 2 hours, I will begin my BAND journey, and start my new life! Good Luck to all my fellow BANDSTERS today!

Tomorrow I will join the LOSER club. I am getting nervous and excited at the same time. I am looking forward to my new life! I am taking several before shots and once I am banded, I will do after shots later.

I had to pay $20.00 for one pill.
