Thanks you so much MacMadame! I didn't realize that eating solids now could jeopardize my future.......good thing you wrote me that. Yes, I do NEED restriction, but I guess I have to wait 9 more days in ALL-LIQUID-HELL> Any ideas as to what can fill me up in the meantime?:hurray:

Hello there Fellow Banders! I was Lap Banded on Dec. 23, 2008~ 4 days ago. I was researching some more tonight as I chill out in my recliner. I was so tired of hearing "Why don't you try Weight Watchers"~ DUH!!! How many times have I tried that? And Atkins, South Beach, Jenny Craig, NutriSystem, etc. You name it! I also got flack for doing it RIGHT before Christmas~ but I am a full time, married, working Mom of a 2 year old. So tell me when should I get it done? So I went for it! I have PCOS, high blood pressure, sleep apnea and (the last straw) Pre-Diabetes. I was 250 before surgery and as of today I am 240lbs. I am only 5'3".........So I have a WHOLE lot to lose. Is anyone out there to talk to me? I am on the clear liquid phase~ BUT why do I feel hungry? I feel like skipping a "phase" and eating a tiny bit of solids.....OMG! But I don't get my first fill until January 5th. Maybe that's when the REAL restriction begins??? Help me Banders! Thanks
