    LapBand Food Stages Lists Suggestions

    Dylansmom, Thank you so much for this list. After 1 1/2 years of no changes (OK, no ups, but no downs either), I was desperate for help. Trouble with fills (Dr can't find port, bends needles, and then gets angry at me), so going to find a new doctor. But FIRST, I want to learn how to use the band, something I haven't done. The core plan is the thing: From that I can work out a simple weekly menu that works. Cheers, cacrider

    Banding tomorrow!

    Just arrived home after surgery yesterday. Looking again at the liquid diet requirements (and having already had the experience of being FULL after 3 oz. of jello and crystal light), I'm wondering if I've made a big mistake. But I'll chalk it up to new territory jitters. You all seem so positive about it -- that's reassuring. Well, off to rest for a minute. It's so nice and quiet home! cheerio, carol

    Banding tomorrow!

    Thank you both so much! It's funny how all the worries start now, not months ago when I was researching it all. : ) But I look at the online scales of weight loss and figure: YES, I have made the right choice. Thanks for the reassurance. : ) cheers, carol
  7. Hi, everyone! It's been a long wait (delayed once because of a cold) but I'm being banded tomorrow. (Yes, that means today is the dreaded "drink a horse trough full of water" and try -- just try! -- to do anything else for more than 20 minutes. : ) I gave up symphony tickets to friends thinking (rightly, it seems) that I'd better stay home today.... Seriously, I am looking forward to the help the band will/should give me, and not a little nervous: did I make the right choice? will I succeed? will I blow yet another attempt to lose weight? Cheers to all, carol
