    Hey everyone! Sorry it has been a minute. Had my surgery on Thursday 4/22. It went smooth. Had some minor achiness, but stopped the liquid pain meds on Friday and just took Tylenol. Unfortunately I didn't hydrate enough on Friday and almost passed out right after taking the pain meds. Note to everyone...Sip, sip, sip! It is crucial! I am doing good. finally getting my protein in. Think the swelling is going down now. I have lost 8 lbs since surgery date and never really feel hungry. I can 'eat' about 1/2 cup of broth at a time. Usually only have it once a day. But doing good overall. Some pain where the port is but all is well!!! Congrats to all the recent bandsters and good luck to you upcoming guys. We should have a couple more right?

    My surgery is tomorrow as well. I fell off the wagon with my liquid diet by having a meal (not a big meal) but fell off none the less. I am ashamed, but will admit that I realize now the importance of having you guys here and coming her for the support. It think a support system is crucial to our success. So to that I say...I'm sorry guys for not coming to lean on you like I should and I will do better. Good luck to everyone having their surgeries today, tomorrow, and Friday!

    I've been on vacation a few days so I missed the beginning of the month. Congrats to all our beginning of April Bandsters! Glad your surgeries went well and you are well on your way to recovering and weight loss! I am so happy and proud of you all!:smile2: I start my liquid diet on Thursday. i am a little nervous but just completed a class last week at surgeon's office that offered a wealth of info and bought some sample protein and meal replacements to see what i like. I'm gonna be honest I am gonna have a last hurrah. Not overboard, but just because I haven't had any in a while and don't know when I will have any again...I'm gonna have crab legs! Yes I love them, but my body doesn't usually. Just this once and I'm done. Well...glad to see everyone is doing well and we can definitely do this!!!!!

    I am schedule to my preop diet on April 8th. 2 weeks of liquids only...I'm a lil nervous about that. Partially because I am not good at getting in all my water. So, I am pushing really hard right now to up that so when my food will be liquid I won't stop drinking water. Good luck with your surgery and I am sure you will do great!

    My first blog

    Hi everyone. I'm new to all this. New to the LAP-BAND® procedure, new to blogging, just new. I decided to do the LAP-BAND® because I have tried most of everything else. I'm too young to have back and knee pain. Take cholesterol and blood pressure meds. I'm trying to stick around to see my son grow up and maybe get married again and have more babies. At any rate, I have to get my life together. I know the LAP-BAND® is definitely going to help. Another thing I'm trying to do is get my life organized. I feel like I'm rushing all the time, probably because my house is so unorganized and cluttered in some places. A lot of times, I don't even attempt to do much to make it better because I'm tired or my back hurts. Much like right now. Of course sitting at this computer certainly doesn't help. Just wanted to stop in and drop my thoughts. No worries....I'll be back. Thanks for the support and the information everyone. Smooches! G
