I am amazed that I am feeling so well! I have a headache, but I think that's from not eating. I can' t have any Protein Drinks until after I have my swallow test. My stomach is growling, but at least this day is almost over with.

Right now a Protein Drink is sounding GREAT!

Welcome Denise!!

I am going to be banded next week! I get really excited when I hear someone is banded and it goes so well.

Check out the January thread for support or the Lower BMI thread. They have made a huge difference for me with the support they have given!!

Audree:clap2:

It's day 3 now and I am stil feeling great. Just hungry. Those Protein drinks don't take the hunger away for very long. I still haven't had any gas pains. I wonder if they are still on their way. Everyone has told me the gas pains are the worse part of the whole thing but I have no gas pains (yet)

Thanks everyone for being so supportive. Bandsters are the most awewome people!;):);):)

I guess for all the meetings I had to go to, I have no Idea what the band size is or means. Does that have anything to do with the amount of fills you need? How long after you have been banded do they do a fill?

Congratulations on being banded! I'm so glad things are going well for you so far!

Get yourself some Gas-X to ward off the gas pains. I take one with each "meal." So far, no pains at all.

Be sure you are getting enough Protein. It'll help you feel full longer. Keep drinking to stay hydrated.

You're doing great--keep it up!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
