I was banded 3rd Sept, had my 1st fill Wed and i'm embarrassed to say i'm eating more. I personally am not making the best food choices at the moment, I thought I would have restriction after 1st fill but then again it could be the food i'm eating. I am finding it hard not to eat and drink or wait the hour till after i've eaten. But I haven't put any weight on and i'm going to revaluate my eating right now. I didn't want to, or think i'd need to keep a food diary but maybe I should.

thanks for what you said, b/c I am doing the same thing. I have lost a whole 2 lbs in the last month since my first fill. wow! I am ready to get back on track.....in the past when I lost at this weight I am currently sitting, I always reverted to old habits. Once I get passed this hurtle, I will be ok! :eek:

Ok, I need some uplifting! I have been craving Protein, so a week ago

i tried it...went down smoothly. so I just started week 4 post-op, and

i have spent the last week eating meat. My husband posed a good

question tonight...is this ok? am I taking words too far with if you

feel fine?

I really started this to be strict to the book. Also, when can I be

intimate with my husband again?

Any others banded the week of 8/11-8/15 where I am or am I messing this up?:shades_smile:

Thanks!

I too believe in you! You will be fine. I can tell how far you have come base on your committment to change. I am excited for you to get your band! Take care and remember, we are all here for you!!!

Congratulations!!!!

I agree you are not a baby. I was banded on 8/15/08, and I too planned to go to work in a couple of days....well I went on day 6 post-op. Like you, it hurt and wore me out. And, I do not have a k-g class! I had chest pain and now battling a severe rash that several doctors have stated, they have not seen before. But we will be ok, I promise!

Hang in there!!!

I do see such a difference!!! Wow.

ok, it appeared in the inside of my knees last night. It resembles hives, but has Fluid in them. They are spreading, b/c today, I have it on the inside of my arms...and it is still growing.:thumbup:

I like the unflavored unjury Protein powder. You truly can't taste it when you add it to food. You can purchase it at www.unjury.com. Hope you find one you like!!

I agree with unjury.....had strawberry yesterday and chocolate today...tasted like a treat! No chalky taste or aftertaste1:thumbup:

I was banded this past friday, 8/15. I have to say, it was a positive experience. I am getting up fine and walking very well. Not hungry and even able to watch food network without the desire to eat! I am so motivated and you will be too! Good luck
