I had lap band surgery on March 30. I have lost 25lbs. I am so tired and weak all the time, any suggestions, is this normal? I go for my first fill tuesday.
I was banded 2 weeks ago and have lost 20.5 pounds including the 2 week pre liquid diet and all of a sudden i feel like i have NO restrictions. My surgen scheduled my first fill for 4 weeks from now, is this normal? Im so hungry, any suggestions would be appreciated! :thumbup:

I feel like im going crazy! I change my mind about the surgery every 5 min. I am scheduled for march 30 and the closer it gets the more i start to freak out, Please leave me some positive experiences with your band so i can ease my mind!!:blushing:

I wish i could continue this on my own with out the band but i have done this way too many times and always do good on a diet at first! Im excited to start my journey, just running out of patience and getting tired of this liquid diet form hell! This time next week i will be banded...exciting and scarry:mad: Say a prayer for me please!
So i made it through week one on liquid diet and hated every minute of it. Down 9.3 pounds so im happy about that. God give me strength to do this one more week before surgery. I went to a baby shower today, went through the buffet line, filled my plate, moved it around and pretended to eat so noone would know i was doing lap band,,,that was hard! :mad:
Im on day 6 of liquid diet hell! Im just going to sleep until my surgery on march 30 so i dont have to think about food anymore! Good nite all :eek::mad:
Second day of liquid diet, First day was not so hard but today i am hungry, any suggestions? How did you make it through 2 weeks of no food in a big stomache? HELP:eek:

I finally got a surgery date March 30! Im so excited to start my new adventure and a little nervous. I have tried sooo many diets in the past that it is almost embarrising to list. I always did good the first month then down hill from there. I know this is not a fix all, but i hope its the tool i need to stick to it. I want to be healthy and keep up with my kids :thumbup: they have alot of energy! Im not telling many peolpe at first that im having this done, the only people i told are my husband, mom,siste,and a good friend. Im not ready for all the opinion..I start the liquid diet march 15, any suggestions?:smile:
