  2. Happy 38th Birthday melliott74!

  3. Tammygirl,

     

    I am much better just into the losing weight stage though. I have had one fill and trying to get another before the middle of July. I am incouraged by the things already happening to my body.

  4. Hi Melliott 74,

     

    Just seeing your friends request. Hope you are moving toward better health. I am getting used to the band and learning to incorporate more exercise in my day. Take care.

    Severe pain

    How are you? Just a little worried for ya.
  8. mine is slightly to the left...but very close.
  9. I lost eight (in the liquid stage) then gained six back when I was told to eat real food. My doctor does not put any Fluid in the band when it is placed. Is that why I am not losing? I am trying to watch what I eat. I started excercising 30-45 min on the treadmill. He will not put any fluid in until I am four weeks post op. Is that normal? He is a very conservative doctor. Is there anything else I can try?
  10. my doc said two weeks , then back to what you where doing before.
  11. I am feeling great. My doc said it was okay to exercise, just wanted to know if anyone else's doctor says the same. Thanks for your input.

    I live in Dickson. I was banded on April the 28th.:wink2:
  13. I have been belching and gassing too. I was also banded on the 28th of April. I guess it is a cycle and I am glad that I have a private office to do it in.
  14. I was able to get out yesterday for little then came home and took a nap. Went out today for about half an hour and did not have to nap when I got back. I was on clear liquids for two days and started all liquids yesterday. I will start mushies on Sunday. I am looking forward to it but know that I probably will eat mostly scrambled eggs (and try to stay away from the carbs). Your band is going to let you make the wrong choices. You have made it this far keep the will power up ....your first fill will be here sooner than you think.:cool2:

    Anyone being banded April 28?

    It is a little weird being able to feel that all going on. My doctor says that it is just gas and will eventually subside.:cool2: Still not really hungry just eating to shakes and some Jello and of course Water (as much as I can get down).
