Well I am new myself and I have been doing good so far. I had no problems with the surgery except for the gas and that still lingering lol I have my first fill on the 17th. I started walking on Monday and I walked 2 miles and I think I over did it but it felt good. I am going to attempt to walk 2 more on tomorrow and maybe add an extra day next week. I started eating regular foods and I get full fast. a couple of times I was paying attention and got to full and that is such an uncomfortable feeling. I have to be careful of that. I see why they say don't watch tv' date=' drive or do anything else while you are eating lol[/quote']

So what are ur meals like? What r u eating?

I am on regular foods now. Girl egg drop Soup is my best friend. Its only 60 calories for a half cup lol But like today Breakfast is easy because I am not really hungry when I get up so I have a slim fast, lunch I had a veggies egg roll and half cup of egg drop soup and that was to much and I am still full from that. But I am not having no problems with anything getting stuck or nothing. I take it because I have not had my band fill but I know once that happens I am going to really have to watch my chewing and swallowing small bites. have you down loaded my fitness pal? Its great girl I love it all of you all if you don't use it might need ot think about it. There is an application on android as well. It tracks calories and its a good tool.

How is everyone doing? Yup, I am in bandster hell now LOL I know what they mean and some one explain that's the period that you go through after surgery when you need a fill. My hunger is about every two hours now but I am eating healthy and not over doing it. The 17th cant get here fast enough Lord.

Yes I am on regular foods now girlfriend LOL Remember my bad has not been filled to its capacity and if I would overdo it I would be in trouble but I am being good. If I were you I would ask if I could make my post op appointment now that was you are sure to get in exactly3 to 4 weeks. But I can not stress enough chew chew chew before swallowing. Girl You dong realize how big of chunks of food we swallow with out chewing properly on a day to day basis.

Nope. Didn't have to a sleep study. Do you snore a lot or stop breathing while sleep or do you get out of breath a lot? Maybe that's why they are doing it. Only thing I had to do was an EDG and that's because I had chronic heartburn for the last year or so.

Talked to my advocate today and she really shed the light on a lot of stuff. I felt so good after our talk. I cant stress enough keep up with your fills that is a part of the success we will have. She say once I get this fill then watch the lbs fall off and I believe her because after surgery I drops 21 lbs then stop. So once I get that fill and get that satisfying feeling again they will drop more so girls keep up with your fills
