I am new to this site, but thought it was a wonderful resource tool and support network.

I was banded on December 21, 2005.

As of the 11th of January I am down 25.5 pounds. 13 pounds were lost just with the 10 day liquid diet before surgery.

Look forward to chatting

Nicole

Hi nicole,

Welcome to LBT! Glad to have you here.

hello I was banded on 1/4/06 a week later i loss 10 LBS but i will little dizzness sometime How did you feel a week later after the banded

Welcome to LBT Nicole. Congrats on your weight loss!

msbabytee, it sounds like you're light on Protein. Make sure you're getting in at least 60 grams of protein/day and call your doctor to let him know what's going on.

Live near the twin cites! Where do you live?

You have just come off the Clear liquids so you will feel better this coming week. One week post op I was still sore and a little tired. The dizziness may be from meds if you are still taking any. When you move to full liquids, pay attention to your Protein. I'm about 5 weeks out now and feeling pretty good. I'm tired by the end of my busy day though!!
