I was banded a week ago today by Dr. de la Garza in Mexico. To be honest, it was rough. I was never so glad to be home. i weighed myself today and I am down 16 pounds. I am sure that a lot of that is Fluid because i was getting pretty bloated.
I feel pretty good and am back at work. I would never have made it on Clear liquids. Luckily Dr. de la Garza allows you to have milk and Protein shakes the first 2 weeks. I have been living on costco weight loss shakes, creamed Soups and diet koolaide.
