Got My Band 12/20

Can't sleep. Only real pain I think is bloating and the port spot.

Overall though I feel good. Just tired!!!!

YAY! I was banded yesterday as well :) So far everything is going great just a little soreness!

Yippee! I was re-banded on 12/19. So looking forward to a fresh start

Congratulations to all of you! Good luck on your new healthy journey.

Happy Bandaversary to me!!!!!!!!!!!! 12/22/10. Great Journey to all of you. Woooooo Haaaaaa

I got banded 12/20 too, just really sore, gas pains not that bad. Every day it seems to be getting better. Good luck everyone!

I got banded on 12/19 - are you all still doing liquids or have you moved to mushies?

Congratulations to all of you!!

I got banded on 12/19 - are you all still doing liquids or have you moved to mushies?

I'm still on liquids, just started full liquids this morning actually. Per my surgeon's instructions I can go to mushies on day 12 postop. Thankfully I'm not hungry at all....still having a hard time getting all my fluids and protein in right now.

I am still sore but for the most part the pain is gone- I feel very lucky!

My doctor told me I could progress to mushies when I felt I was ready ... So far I have had a few spoons of grits, a scrambled egg, oatmeal, and mashed potatoes- a few spoons of all of that over a few days--- I am averaging about 6 spoons of mushies a day plus liquids

Also another great way to get Protein is a Gladiator smoothie from smoothie king - 40grams of protein :)

I hope I am doing it right - when I read posts it concerns me because all of us are so different!!

I'm 5 days post op, feeling a lot better I don't have to take the pain meds as much. Still on liquids but still don't really have a appetite so the soups and protein drinks are doing the trick, thank God! Down 3.5 lbs since I came home yay!!!

Congratulations to all newly banders and re-bander.

Merry Christmas

Hope everyone had a great New Years. I was in bed early and didn't have any festivities planned.

I'm doing well. A bit uncomfortable still @ 12 days post op.

Looking forward to shrinking in 2013!!!
