Well I will be banded one week tomorrow. Feeling great. Life is good, very motivated mentally, physically still tired and some minor soreness. Will keep you posted. Oh, and no appetite at all.

OMG, 2-weeks post op and I finally feel normal today. It has been a rough 2-weeks and hope this is just the beginning of me starting to feel much better!! Don't let anyone tell you, that you'll be recovered within days. Everyone is different and you won't know until you have your surgery!

Back home from a weeks vacation on the beach, so nice!!!! Now I am so ready for my first fill. I am able to eat anything and I have no restriction except for rice, isnt that crazy, I can eat chicken but rice seems to make me feel stuffed after a few spoons. Any way, I get my first fill tomorrow and I am ready. I have not loss any weight in a while but I haven't gained any so thats a blessing.

Hey Kathy,
I'm doing well.
My throat is still sore and I do have occasional gas, but otherwise I'm doing great. I'm having trouble getting down the protein shakes...All I really want to eat is broth and ice chips!
How are you doing now? Are you going out? Driving? Still on Pain meds?
Unfortunately I'm dealing with healing and a broken water pipe that has flooded the downstairs where I sleep and use the computer. I've relocated upstairs and using a wireless computer...but the power keeps going out due to all the equipment the water restoration people have set up to dry up the flood. Why couldnt the pipe have waited a week or two before busting? Just my luck to have it happen day 2 home from the hospital!

hi --
do you have to wait because of insurance requirements? How many pre-op support meetings are they requiring you to do? Where are you going for them?
It's still really novel but I like it so far. Most people seem to get back on their feet faster than I did but I am also older and had a stricter liquid phase. Today was my first day adding in food (day 15) and it is also a stricter diet than what I see on the message board. I started taking 2 Optifast like drinks a day and just 2 tablespoons of egg or soft cheese 3 times a day at mealtimes. I'm supose to build to 6-8 tablespoons a meal and expand on the foods beginning with proteins and then adding in veggies. I know this sounds terrible but actually I don't mind it. I think I'm OK with it for 3 reasons. First, because I did do Optifast for 12 weeks a long time ago---this doesn't seem as hard compared to that. 2nd--the band is REALLY helping with it. So far I don't have any cravings. I did feel hunger on the 2 weeks of clear liquids (250 calories a day!) but because of my Optifast memories --I was able to hold on. The 3rd thing that makes this easier for me (so far!) is that I found out yesterday that I lost 11 lbs in those 2 weeks of clear liquid. My MD told me yesterday that I can keep this as low carb and as low calorie as I want so I have elected to be REALLY strict. I'm hoping to lose at least another 45 lbs by Sept. That will be tough.

Hi Jojamel, thank you for adding me ! I just joined this forum and need a lot of support. So happy your surgery went well. Mine is Oct 27, 2011. I am not at all anxious re; surgery but very anxiety ridden because I read all the ppl who drop 10 lbs or more in the first week of pre op diet I am on the Optifast 5 a day with 64oz liquids. I have been on this since Tuesday and only 4 pounds down.

Wow! I actually looked you up because I hadn't seen any posts in so long. You are a beautiful woman! Wow! AND a beautiful family. You have inspired me more than once & always enjoy your posts. My favorite was when you told me you were finally a "tucker". I'll never forget it because I could really relate.
I'm doing well but a bit discouraged on the clothes size not changing but I imagine exercise is in order. I hate it & procrastinate terribly. Started again yesterday. I'm 12 weeks out this week.
It was great seeing you're still around & I really enjoyed your profile & pictures. Thanks again for the inspiration. Best wishes with the rest of your journey.

I am a little upset since I went to my lap band doctor today for a fill and he actually removed .4 cm. I was a 4.9 and now I am a 4.5. I was always hungry and had only lost 3 lbs since February. He said come back and he would adjust if it did not work for me. I am so upset. Left there and had a drink and seafood.
