So I was banded June 1st and have had 7 fills down 38lbs, have some restriction but still can eat a lot more than what doc recommends. My biggest complain is that I work at a delicatessen and I am surrounded by food all day long and can't stop picking on stuff. Although I am loosing I feel like I can loose a lot more. I try to eat healthy but can't get myself to do it everyday. Please any advice getting very discouraged? Should I start looking for another job? Thanks to all

you lost 90 lbs in two months?
No. My BMI was hovering at 43 I believe?
-
Thank you for your advice and high spirits I will keep my head up and give it all I can.

Cynthia please tell me what you have been doing? when did you really start loosing weight was it after reaching restriction or from day one. I have been on the same wait for the last two months and I am soooo fustrated i don't know what to do I am getting sooooo discouraged that I am starting to make lousy choices and eating everything I shouldn't be. Please share some light on me.
Thanks
Cynthia

Oh How I know this feeling and this may sound weird but I hate that I don't throw up after the last bite nor 10 minutes later. I rather throw it up than keep it in and making me consume more calories. :thumbup:
-
Hi just wondering if you guys have been banded? If os how is it going.
-
OMG, I work at a Kosher Delicatessen and I love love love their bison burgers and last week i tried one and ohhhhhh:eek: the pain from that first bite; had to throw it away and make myself a salad:sad:. Before my last fill I was able to eat anything I mean anything sometimes I felt like I was eating a full meal like before surgery but now I've experienced not being able to eat beef, and some pastries,:thumbup: yeah I know the pastries are not suppose to go in my mouth but here and there I gotta have me a piece of ruggelach.

I stopped taking my Vitamins because I bought 3 different ones and they all made me regurgitate even with food. I don't know why but I've decided not to take them anymore. Last ones I took were Bariatric Fusion and they taste great but didn't make me feel great.:smile2:
-
Great thanks for the replies. I'm hoping everything goes well I mean how bad can it get; maybe that I won't eat much:thumbup: that would be great. Lol
-
So my doc asked me to go see him for a fill the day before I go on vacation. Has anyone flown right after a fill? Does this matter? I'm just a little concerned. I have had three fills and have no restriction at all and really want to get my fills because I am desperate to feel restriction. Please give me your advice.
Thanks

Hi I was banded on the 1st of June and went I went for my one week follow up visit, my doc told me I can return to my normal life "sexual activities". About the smoking sorry i can't help not a smoker.

SO I WAS BANDED JUNE 1ST (NO FILLS) AND HAVE BEEN DOING REALLY GOOD WITH WHAT I EAT, BUT MY 4 YR OLD JUST HAD A WAFER CONE WITH BREYERS Cookies AND CREAM ICE CREAM AND ATE JUST LIKE 5 0R 6 LICKS AND SAID M0MMY HERE I DON'T WANT ANYMORE.
OH AND WHAT DO I DO TAKE A LICK AND THAT WAS IT I WAS OVERPOWERED BY HOW GOOD IT TASTE AND ATE THE WHOLE THING.
HOW BAD IS THIS? I AM FEELING SOOOOOOO GUILTY RIGHT NOW. PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK:confused:

It is so frustrating how every doctor gives different explanations and directions. I am 17 days post-op and during my first week my doc said it was ok to go into mushies and as of last weekend doc said I can eat almost anything as long as I chew chew chew and stay away from dry tough foods. I don't mean to confuse. As far as the stitching I believe the only stitches are the ones by the port so how can your band slip. Anyway just so you know I have been doing just fine. I have had salads with chicken, vegetable Soup, mashed plantain, and more and I have lost 17lbs since surgery.
Good luck in your journey.

-

Ok so for Breakfast I have a Protein shake; is this considered a meal or should I be having something else with this.
I am also getting sooooooo bored:bored: of the same mushes everyday getting very frustrated:cursing: don't know what to have.
Currently having yogurt, shakes, Jello, mashed potatoes and scrambled eggs. What can I eat? Don't like cottage cheese. Please help.

cmsirois;
Have you asked the doc what it can be? I haven't been to the doc yet so I don't know if it is just gas or maybe something else.
-
So i have this terrible pain on my lower right side especially when i walk; but the thing is there are no incisions or anything there. I walk and walk and nothing pain remains there. Should i worry or could this just be gas?
I was banded june 1st.
Thanks

Thanks Jen that helps. I actually have been doing the yogurt, applesauce, etc I just been wanting to do other stuff. But I guess I must stick to the rules.

Hi all, I am soooooooooo confused as to what I can and can't eat the first days/weeks. Many of you are on liquids for the first two weeks but I was banded on June 1st and on June 3rd my doc called me to see how I was doing and in the conversation he said i can begin my mushy stage. So what is mushy stage? Can I eat anything as long as I chew the heck out of it and make it mushy.
Please help me understand a bit more. Thanks
