  1. Thanks Leigha for the comforting words. I like this thread its so upbeat. I am 19 days post and not loosing but thats ok because I know from reading, that the fills are the ticket. ( Along with the lifestyle change). Any way thanks for the support fellow bandits.
  2. Call your Dr. mine gave me patch just befor surgurey I wore for a week and meds under my tounge evrey eight hrs as needed. He told me the last thing he wanted is for me to get sick as that could cause damage. Call your Dr. to get you somthing it works.
  3. Hey girl great Job I myself have lost 10lbs in 14 days I started mushies and soft food before you. Although I was banded 3/11/10. So my loss slowed down as soon as soft came in the picture, but I think that is to be expected. Just like you Its time to start the excersice. That has been my problem for some time now. Time for me to move on to that stage. When do you get your first fill?

  9. I am 5 days out and I am still sore . Up and down all night. Only went back to work because I had to I wish a had this week off. I am hungry and my belly is making alot of noise. So I can relate with all of you. I dont mean to complain It is just a little bit scarey going through this stuff.
  10. I had mine on Thursday went back to work yesterday Monday. It made for a very emotional day. Today is better. Off of pain meds now. So to answer your question 4 days after surgurey would have been better for me any way.
