maybe it was the pain med!! Sorry to hear that

Yes I am doing good!! So far no fills an I am happy about that. And no I couldn't get all that protien in. Good for you to sample those shakes before u buy them. I wasted a lot of money buying all those shakes. One low carbs slimfast would last me two days lol. I still have lot of Soups as well chicken broths lol. Dont buy to much I love my band and I have no problem eating anything. I dont eat bread r rice but that by choice. Because I would rather eat my protien and veggies. I am down 27 pound 7 pounds is pre op but I am happy you should be feel better soon. When do you go on solids? Happy New Year

I tried Jenny Craig. I lost 25 pound in 4 months! It was really expensive I was spending 400 month on their food plus I still had to buy stuff that was part of the program. Plus buy food for my family. So I just gave up and did low fat on my own. But I put all the weight back on plus some. Anyway how r you doing?

Lol ok :D

That right:)

That right:)

Well for your info!! I was band on Nov 22 and I have lost 20 pound and I have not had to have one fill yet!! And I am on solid food!! Everbody is diffrent. So to throw stones is not nice. So I do eat and Iam doing well and plan on to keep doing well with no fills

Lol I guess those people r the band expert Whatever life is just not that heavy!! All are bodies r diffrent and if you are ok then oh freaking well. But far as myself I am not a drinker. I did try some sparkling red jucie until I realize it was carbonated wow it was a party going on in my mouth so I had to toast with just green tea lol

Patience is like a tree, The root is bitter but the fruit is sweet. A lot of that hunger could be head hunger. I was banded on Nov 22 and I have never had a fill. Don't need one I have learn to eat to live not live to eat.Take your time with those fill u don't want to get sick. I eat protien that fill me up and I cut my food it such small pieces, Anyway Nate goodluck to u. It not about how fast we finish the race as long as we reach the finish line.

Goodluck

Goodluck

This is not good. You should go and have them remove a small amount. I know we like the weight loss but it can cause big problem in the end.

Happy one month bandanniversary To all my nov 22 band people. We did it one month has pass and I thank God I have not had any problem. I went to my first fill appt and did not even need one hip hip hooray. I pray I never need one. She said because I am losing weight at a good rate why mess with something that not broken I will go back on the 27 of Dec to see if I need a fill I don't think so. Anyway just wanted to send shout out to my Nov 22 people. Any yes I am down 20 pound to the day if I count pre-op it would be 25.4 yea!!! Good luck to everyone that on this journey. May God keep us all strong even when we feel we had made a big mistake

Sometimes are bodies do what they want to do. Some people retain fulids. Just be patience it work out for you. Can you have soup to help with the hunger? I was told if I get to hungry doing one of my stages to call in to the office and the nutririonist would help me. Anyway you wake up and get on that scale and be 10 pounds lighter soon

People who marriage r on the rock after they r band. Marriage was on the rock before the band. I think once your husband see u eating healthy he want to eat right. Beside if u doing the cooking he has no choice but to eat what you cook. And u can just cook healthy way I been marry 24 years now Soon to be 25 year in April. I was band on Nov 22 this year I cook low carbs and the whole family eat an dont even know it low carb lol. I order pizza but I don't eat it. But we can have it I choose not to. So don't feel your life has to change because of what you read. Only thing he will have to buy you a new wardrobe lol

I am like u. I can eat but small protion. I have not had a fill yet because the doc said I didn't need one. Maybe u be the same. My doc said less is better if u can go without a fill u r part of the lucky few. I can eat off a kid meal from chick fila twice I divide the meal up and have it for dinner. I have one chicken strip two frieds an I am full. Hummas is that like grits? remember your stomach is the size of a shot glass and it can not hold a lot. They what keep me going I call it my baby stomach lol and we know we dont over feed our baby lol Anyway good luck take it slow an just maybe we can lose all our weight with no fill yea!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I really don't know where it is. When I go back next week I will ask. And yes I can eat. It just strange u can not eat. Maybe u have something in your band an that forgot to tell u. The first week was liquid then I was on mushie food for two week then solids.

The pain in the shoulder and in the stomach area is gas trying to escape. They say they put C 2 O in the body. What help me out I just walk around the house when I had to get up to go to the restroom. Are when you feel it coming on. Also gas x and beno help with it to if you guys have that Find something chewables for gas. Also I love clam chower it help me and potato soup.
