flax...It does feel great to be under 100 :clap2: tracymcp....welcome I'm sorry to hear you are not doing too well with your weight loss, have you got any restriction? also what would your daily menu look like? bronnie... great weight loss lucylee.... congrats on your first fill

Hi all Bronnie good luck with your fill today, I had a fill of 2ml on Tuesday and it was to much I couldn't even swallow my own saliva so I had to go back for a unfill that night to get 1ml removed it was such a releif but my restriction is pretty good now I can't even eat half as much as before. Where has everyone gone??

Wecome and good luck with everything. You are about to change your life forever.

I have been banded for almost 3 weeks and have only lost 5 lbs, I can't understand why as the other people banded on the same day as me have lost at least 20 lbs some of them more. I know it is early days yet but I have to admit I am disapointed by such a small weight loss.:think I have been having protien shakes and soup plenty of water and the last week have been going on the treadmill for 20 minutes per day.

Bronnie...congrats on becoming a bandster, hope it went well:) Magii

Hi It might be because your body is adjusting to your new diet, as this has happened to me when changing my diet. Magii

Hi I was banded on the same day as you and yes I think what your saying is normal, like you I feel like I could gulp Water down as fast as I used to, not that I have tried, I can take my meds as normal, don't have to crush them, and am finding I can eat more each day, so don't worry too much as I feel the same way:biggrin1: Magii

Hi It can be hard to be on liquids, I have been on them for almost 2 weeks now, but I just keep thinking about the weight I will lose and I know it will be worth it in the end. Magii:)

Hi I will be going back to work two weeks after my surgery. Magii

Hi all Bronnie....good luck for tomorrow, It will all go well for you, just have something to keep your mind occupied while you wait for your surgery that helped me while I waited.:biggrin1: Sussannah... I'm sorry to hear about your port, but glad to hear your keeping your chin up. Magii

Hi Bronnie Thanks for the welcome. you must be excited about friday, I was really scared before my op but, didn't need to be woke up in a bit of pain but nowhere near what I expected. Magii

Hi Tracey I was banded on the 2/27 as well I got my stiches out on friday, they put steri strips on all the incisions, already 2 of those have come off and I have 1 incision that has the steri strips on that has been weeping a bit I don't know if I should be worried about it or not. Magii

Hi All I wanted to know if anyone has had any experience with having a band and getting the Depo Provera Injection as I have heard that there can be problems with one fighting the other. I am on Depo Provera because I have endometriosis and am worried I may have to stop using it. Once I am banded. Any feedback would be appreciated. Magii

Thanks for the responses, I am having my surgery on the 27th February with Dr Paul Leong. So I didn't have to wait that long, my first visit was on the 5th January so that wasn't bad, just can't wait to get it done now, but the time has gone quick :biggrin1: magii
