Labor Day Wt loss Challenge- Sept. 7th
Mom2six replied to kaninag's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I am jumping in a little late. I just got my second fill last week and still not too much restriction so mostly doing this on will power still. I get another fill in 3 weeks so hopefully, that will be the one for me and the weight will come off easier and faster. I need this motivation! Thanks guys. -
Calling All MARCH '09 Bandsters - We need a name!
Mom2six replied to gabi311b's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi everyone! I was banded 3/20. I am really excited to be getting my first fill next Wednesday and boy do I need it. The past few days I know I am able to eat way more than I should. I haven't gained any, but haven't lost much since surgery either. Hope everyone is hanging in there. It won't be much longer now before these bands really start working for us :sneaky: -
I just made something yummy for lunch. I am having a hard time being creative with the mushies. I took a can of chicken and added a little mayo and put that in the food processor. It was yummy and filling. I think I might try some egg salad puree tonight :thumbdown:. Any other suggestions for something easy and quick to mush?

You poor thing with that awful flu! My kids all had it last week and I ended up getting it for one day but not throwing up, just the other end which I could totally deal with. Glad you are feeling better. I am definitely starting to feel more normal and feeling happier then I have in a long time

Yes, do call your doctor. They can give you something for the nausea and vomiting. It might be from the anesthetic from surgery. I did this two or three times too and the medication stopped it. You will be very sore and miserable the first day or two. It does get better. Day 3/4 was a big turning point for me. Take your pain meds too. They help a lot! Hope you are feeling better soon. -
Ack! I totally messed up my weight ticker and now can't figure out how to fix it. Oops.

I went for my post op appt today and my doc said I could have mushies! I never thought I would be so happy to eat mashed sweet potatoes in my whole life. He wants me on mushies for two weeks, then regular food for a week and then back to see him to see if I need a fill or not. I was able to sleep on my tummy last night for the first time but was uncomfortable when I turned over so may wait another night or two to do that again. How are you guys doing?

Hi everyone! I was banded on the 20th too. How are you all doing? Each day is getting better. I broke down and had a bit of thicker liquids today as I was already hungry (yogurt, cream soup). It helped a lot. Still some gas pains but getting better. I heard day 7 is another big turning point in how it feels, so I am looking forward to Friday :thumbup:

I am doing well too! I came home on Saturday and day 3 and 4 were definitely turning points in recovery. Still sore at the port area and feeling gas pains under my shoulder for the first time today so hoping that goes away soon. I was so hungry yesterday so today, I tried some yogurt and a cream soup and boy do I feel so much better. I really needed that. Hope everyone else is doing well!

Hi Cheri! I am a March 20th bandster. Got home today. I will send you a private message :smile: -
Hi guys, I am not sure how post in this area so bare with me if this isn't right.
Fixin... I lurked for a long time and just started posted in the last week or so. I wouldn't worry too much about the cake. Doesn't sound like you had enough to make much difference!
LJB.. I am doing OK on the pre op. The last two days I have been starving though. It helps to come here and read about all the success folks have had. It keeps me motivated.
a_thinner_me..13 more sleeps!!
