hi ladies, i was banded by dr.ortiz in tj on the 21st! i was also terrified of the gas i heard about...but thank goodness, none! :smile2: i feel great so far...but very dizzy, as i said earlier. dr.ortiz was more strict than most, it seems. i just finished clear liquids today and can have a yogurt shake tomorrow! then i still have 2 more weeks of only protien shakes and soup with no chunks! but i am down 6.5 lbs so far and i am still very swollen, so i can't complain! i'm back under 200 so i am very happy! i will NEVER be 200lbs again! :crying: AND...i just went online and used my last LANE BRYANT gift card ever! i splurged and bought myself a beautiful (sexy) outfit to wear when i reach size 14 (now size 20!). i'm very excited about this. i hateeee shopping at LB and i'm soo happy not to ever shop there again! :blushing: hope you are all feeling well!

hi! i'm also july 21st...feeling great so far, just veryy dizzzzyy! i am the same on the scale as i was the day of surgery, which of course sucks b/c we are only on clear liquids! :thumbup:
