Thanks for that story that made me laugh!

I think Ill stick to every morning after my morning ritual and check myself then, so far I have noticed on the days I dont drop I loose inches and the next day it goes down 2 pounds. So i guess i shouldnt complain to much.

Today I am out of the 50's and into the 40's, iM HAPPY! I have to admit that since I had this operation i swore i wouldnt let it get to my head but damn there i go lounging by my pool tanning lmao. My clothes are to big for me now and my belts need to be resized weeee hohooo! :cool:

for me I know i shouldnt but i do weigh everyday even though my doc tells me not to. he says once a week is fine. Yes on the slaty i forgot i had teryaki chicken w/soy sauce. grrr ill leave that alone and also not to be gross but it has been slow go on the toilet since you asked. i did notice aswell that my pants that didnt fit me last week fit me fine now. So im confused lol.

I cant take it anymore and after waking up to a 2 pound gain, I am more determined to get this weight off. I will lose this weight and get to my new mini goal of getting out of the 50's. 299 Im aiming for you!:rolleyes2:

Allright I know my Doc told me that it might happen but why I havent changed anything as far eating goes and I have been loosing really well. I droped 40lbs since june 3rd only to wake up today and notice 2 pounds back??? I havent eatin any thing more than before? So why, I know its not alot and Ill loose it again but why? hmmmm :thumbup:

Thanks for your comments you all are awesome I see Im gonna make some real good friends here :wink2:

People are a trip, I think they mean well but sometimes it can get plain annoying, before got the lap band, at work i would have lunch and have people looking over my shoulder and ask me if I should be eating that before my LB procedure and that was a month out! It got so bad for a while as it got closer to the date that weeks before my operation I just sat in my car and ate lunch. Now I hear if you loose to fast it can be bad and dont get to thin... grrrr I decided to use my full FMLA to get a break from people at work and focus on me and my recovery and weight loss.

Okay Im a week out from getting banded and recently I have been experiencing these major freaking mood swings, I swear I want to rip some ones head off and yesterday i nearly did. I didnt and I calmed myself down, it begins later in the evening like around dinner time is what im noticing and I have learned that when it comes I need to get away from people and go take a nap or something. Concentrating on anything to indepth is beyond me right now too, could it be cabin fever with all this new found energy or hormonal??? :tt1: :w00t:

I feel your pain. OMG that sucks. Do they not understand that a table leg sounds good right now! lmao

thanks for the advice, it feels like i have been abandoned sometimes as my doc did come in to talk to me before i left but oh well. i am going to add more protien to my diet and maybe a soup more here and there. vitaminshope sounds like a good idea as well.

I have been on a liquid diet since June 2nd and was banded on June 3rd I have had no food since Monday of last week and dont feel to hungry most times. Today I feel weak and sluggish, is it cause im not eating or do I need to add something more to my diet of broth and white grape juice? Help im fadding fast. :thumbup:

Hi all, Im David from Cali and I was Banded June 3rd in the OC by Dr.leporte's office through LiteDimensions. I am now posting as Im just starting to feel human again as the pain and gas was wearing me out, I still havent eatin much and my Water intake isnt that great but getting better. I have droped 15 lbs post op pounds and 10 pre for a total of 25 lbs. Im happy! My goal is to drop 130 more and Im cool. I am excited about it and understand its not the magic bullet but a great tool to get me where I want to be. I have studied the Lap and Bypass for 2 years before I made a decission and for me the there was no option here. Well i hope to learn more from all of my fellow bandsters and hope to make some connections here as well, you see that Im very free and friendly too :thumbup:

:thumbup: lol I thought the same thing too, I was thinking what did they do while i was out, drop me on the floor? lol Ok well the pain has subsided and I feel better. Im thinking that this too shall pass. no pun intended lol ok maybe a little.

Ok so i wake up this morning with gas pain in my BACK!? what is that all about? I have had gas pain in my stomach for a few days since my Op but this was insane. I sat up and walked around and it seems to go away but is this normal?

I was Banded June 3rd with Dr.Mir Ali under Lite Dimensions and I can say it was a pleasent experience, the staff is very nice and on top of things. Dr.Ali is very approachable and answered all my questions. I would highly recomend them to anyone looking to band in the OC.

Hello all I live in OC Cali and I am 38 and Banded. Wed the 3rd of June was my big day. So far I have been very uncomfortable with all the gas and now diareah and I still havent had food since monday. Just on starvation alone I have lost weight about 16 lbs, I have felt better but I cant wait to see the new me again. Well I have studied for two years on the pro's and con's of both lap and bypass and realized that Im still learning, it's not an easy road but a journey Im looking forward too running. :blushing:
