I had HORRIBLE nausea the first 2 days but it has subsided, THANK GODDNESS, It was quite miserable! I hope you get to feeling better soon, BTW, I was also sleeved on Valentines Day!!

Hi, I live in Manhattan, and was sleeved in Manhattan on Valentines day. How are things going for you?

Hi Susan, I am still here, things are going well for me. I am so thankful that I have my band and for the weight loss "tool" it is. Hope everyone else is well. ~Carol

I too have NO regrets, I wish I had had this done years ago. I could not be anymore satisfied with my results, my looks, and how I feel!!! I hope everyone else is doing well and happy. Take Care. ~Carol

Hi everyone, Just checking in, things are going well here. I had my first fill today, I have lost 31 pounds so far. I am back on liquids for two days, then soft/mushies for two days then back to regular food after that. That is what my doctor uses after fills, what do your docs suggest after fills?

Thanks for sharing your picture, I have not heard of the single incision before, it looks great.

Standard thats what I mean. Thanks

How many cc in the regular band of the Lap Band? Thanks!!

Hi August Bandsters, Just checking in to see how everyone is doing. I can't wait to move on to mushies next week, I agree I want something salty (and crunchy but I know that will still be awhile.) My big problem is TMI coming, I am so constipated, I haven't pooped in July 30, I have tried, colace, coffee, apple juice, even milk of magnesia, I even resorted to drinking a protien shake, ( I am allergic to milk and the protein shakes give me a dumping syndrome type thing) you can tell I am getting kind of desperate. But other than that I am feeling really good, I love the band, and doing okay on eating, I have only been really hungry yesterday at lunch, so far so good. Hope everyone else is doing well.

I seem to always have a sweet taste in my mouth and also feel like I constantly have bad breath. YUCK!! Also, some things don't taste the same, ie. water, I used to love water, now I am having to put crystal lite in some just to get it all down. Who knows?!?!? But so far I love my band, I still am on the liquid/pureed part, and I am so excited I get to start mushies next week. Yeah!!

This sounds really yummy. Thanks so much for posting!!
