Looking for those who started with BMI 35 or less
Soexcited replied to homewith2's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
And you know I think its different loosing weight when you start with a bmi lower than 35. I find the lower I get the slower it goes, I'd love to dump 30 in 2 months ... how did you do that red bone? was it all after the band? -

I think its AMAZING that you go with your MIL to class. She is going through the worse time in her life, the loss of her lover, best friend, soul mate and you CAN help her by doing something thats good for you. I applaud you for taking care of your family! Well done! -

What have you been blending? I blended home made chili last night as my first meal. So yesterday I had my protein shakes for breakfast and lunch then the chili and lost a pound! Today I had the same protein shakes for breakfast and lunch and tonight have blended up some pasta with meat sauce ........... it looks like poop on a plate but OMG so yummy! -

How did you feel the day after surgery?
Soexcited replied to TN_girl21's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
On day 2 I was feeling yuckie. I was banded at about 1pm and was home by 5pm the same day. That night I was still all doped up on meds from the hospital so slept OK the first night. The 2nd day was hard, just getting up and out of bed was painfull.....it was not till about day 4 till I started feeling human again. -
Looking for those who started with BMI 35 or less
Soexcited replied to homewith2's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hello! I got banded with a lower bmi as well. I was super heavy at one point and got a lot off on my own but just couldnt do the rest. The band was the best thing I have ever done! Now I say that today, because today is a good day...I am 13 days post op and have had a few pity partys too...why did I do this etc etc.....but I suppose thats normal, Id like to get down to about 160! -
Please help w/post-op diet!! Had surgery abroad!
Soexcited replied to mariele's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My post op diet is HELL. I was banded in San Diego (UCSD) and my post op diet is this: day 1 - 5 Water, sugar free popsicles, Vitamin water, iceopure (clear Protein drinks ... 2 a day so I have been getting 80g of protein from day one) chicken broth (the bullion kind). day 6 -14 all of the above including Protein shakes (milk based) Jello, fat free sugar free pudding, yogurt & cottage cheese. day 14-24 blended foods. Anything blended so the texture is alike the pudding like blended pot roast, blended yams, blended peas, just think "baby food" then after that soft foods, like fish, turkey meatloaf, egg/tuna salad (just mayo no cruncy anything) Hope that helps a little.... my first day of blended should have been this Tuesday but I gave a few days early and had like 4 bites of blended home made chicken noodle soup.....it was very light and I added water to lighten it up even more. -
Needing Breakfast ideas
Soexcited replied to JHale967's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
How about making a breakfast borrito the night before and in the morning you can nuke it for a miniute and run out the door. 1 small south beach diet tortilla scrambled agg whites / no fat cheddar 2 slices of turkey bacon wrap it in surran and you are ready to go the next morning! Plan ahead! I also like whole oatmeal...just soak it in no fat milk or yogurt overnight in a tupperwear, by morning its tender and yummy, eat it cold or hot...no "cooking" required! -
Piercing pain on the left
Soexcited replied to nervous_newbie's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was banded 11/25 and had no pain at all till a week later when I started getting these pains in my side like someone was stabbing me with a knife...oh it was HORRIBLE I called the doc in a pannic and he said it was normal and could happen for the first 2 months off and on, not to worry and it would get better. After the one day the pain stopped and I havent had one since.
