Wow everyday I am losing weight! I've lost a total of 16.1 pounds...I'm loving this. I know it has a lot to do with the liquids, but as long as I am working out hard the pounds will continue to fall off. Cool beans!! I'm ready to fit in my old clothes to really see the change, but I will have to wait to lose about another 15 pounds. Anyway....all is GREAT!! Be BLESSED

Thank you!!

Thank you SuperDaddy!! You are so right...we are children of the most high!! We are HEIRS!!!!!

I went in on Thursdy January 11th and went home the next day around 6:30pm.

Wow ten days since banded and I can't believe it!! My incisions are almost healed and they look good. My total pounds lost is about 15! I'm happy with it, but I need to see the numbers drop more. I've increased my work out on the treadmill and I will incorporate my exercise bike as well. I will hold off on my Platinum Weider until I get the ok from Dr. Madan (great doc). I am on my last week of liquids, so on Thursday I will start the puree stage! Woohoo!!!!!!!!!! I'm looking forward to it and looking better than I have in a long time. Be BLESSED!

You'll know soon!!! I had a breast reduction too and I would do that again in a heart beat. I can't say the same about the band, but once I really start losing that may change. Good luck with your decision!! Be BLESSED!

It is so good to hear from you...glad you're doing fine! Sheila Be BLESSED!

Well I seem to have this protein drinking down. It seems like I can drink about a cup with some restriction. I also have about a half of cup of some kind of soup/broth. I eat a few popsicles now, before it was a lot. I'm not having that much of an appetite...if protein wasn't important I doubt if I would drink anything. I'm just not in the mood for anything except what I can't have. Anyway, I will start the puree stage on the 25th! Woohoo!! Be BLESSED!

I'm not having any pains, but I'm concerned since my port site is right at my diaphragm. Good luck rrm.

Oh boy last night after class I dropped my purse and knelt down too fast!! I was in soo much PAIN at my port site (right at my diaphragm) and I was hurting. So I came right home and got in bed...I have to be very careful. Other than that I okay. Be BLESSED

Well it's been a week since banded and I'm better. The one thing that is bothering me is going through another week of liquids. I know it is necessary, but I'm having a hard time. At least let me get to the puree stage!! I think I just heard my stomach for the first time...oh well. Dr. Madan is impressed with my weight lose, so that's good. This morning I did get on the treadmill at a really fast pace. Other than that I'm still day dreaming of being small. Be BLESSED!

Hi everyone, I was banded a week ago and I am wondering if anyone else have their port site right at the diaphragm; under the rib cage. Dr. Madan (EXCELLENT) said he places all the port sites there to keep the port from flipping. Be BLESSED!

Great job!! You're super close to 100!!!! You CAN do it!! Be Blessed!

Hello everyone, I am on day seven since surgery and it's going well. I can not seem to drink more than about 42 or so grams of protein. I will discuss that with the nutritionist today...other than that I drink Crystal Light and eat popsicle and chicken noodle broth. I haven't weighed, but I can tell a difference in my clothes and face. I assume they will weigh me today. Until next time, I will type ya later. Be BLESSED!
