Just had Lap band surgery Friday Feb 19th, feeling great!!

Hi there! I was also banded on Friday, Feb. 19 in Raleigh, NC. And I too am feeling great. My surgery was at 9:20am and I was home by 1:00pm the same day. Have felt a little like I have been kicked in the gut but nothing that I can't tolerate. The strangest thing for me is to hear my stomach growling all of the time. broth and Water don't seem to be satisfying me!

I would love to know what you are eating. The more I read the more I see just how different everyone's diet is. Hope you continue to feel great.

wow, that's great my date is 3/11/10 im so excited i can hardly stand it!!!!! congratz to you both.

congratulations, wish you all the best.....so how are you feeling?

Welcome to LapBandTalk and banded life :tongue_smilie:

Well, I did my first official weigh-in at home this morning. Since surgery on Feb. 19 I have lost 14.5 lbs. I am thrilled with that! I am feeling great and not really feeling hungry at all.

My food choices last week were not great and at times I was frustrated with broth, broth, and more broth. But I was allowed to introduce creamed soups, yogurt, and milk this week so I feel like a new woman! Have my first followup appointment at the doctor on Friday. Maybe I can reach the 20 lb. mark by then.

My date is 3/11/10 too!!!! sooo excited

Goal is to reach 75 g. of Protein daily. So I'm still using Protein powder mixed with skim milk 3 x day. Adding in very thin tomato Soup, yogurt, applesauce, babyfood (2 oz) at a time, popsicles and today cream of wheat. The amounts are always less than 2 oz. Atleast I'm getting some different flavors.
