banded 9/6

Starting weight: 264.5 Current weight 252.6 Goal weight 160

Was banded 8/6, i may be able to give you your journey, but everyone's experiences are different. I get my fill today.

I got my band on 9/11/12. So far, so good. I just tried some cream of wheat for the first time mixed with Protein powder...... Not as good as I thought it would be, but was nice to feel something a little more solid in my stomach.

At first I was so afraid to even drink anything taking these little baby sips, but honestly I've realized I really don't think I have any restriction but haven't had a fill yet. Has anyone had their first fill???? Was wondering if there's a big difference?

I was banded 9/6 I haven't had a fill yet but I do feel restriction. I get very full from less than a cup and it last about 3 1/2 to 4 hours. it might be because I'm still swollen but I can totally tell a difference from now and pre band

Wow really?? I'm jealous. What type of diet are you following? I've been liquids only last 3 weeks but today I'm trying cream oh wheat and pudding.

I have Greek yogurt for Breakfast they come in 6oz but I never finish it so I save the rest for a snack. for lunch I have a soft boiled egg or fat free chili or fat free refried Beans with a little salsa And for dinner I have tuna with no mayo. and for Snacks I have yogurt or apple sauce. I still get head hunger but I drink my fluids to get over that. I've also been Walking two miles a day

Hmmm maybe that's why I don't feel full then, because I really haven't started on food yet. Thanks for responding. It gives me hope that I'll feel much better once I can actually eat something!
