Why would that be depressing??? If I kept one, I would be depressed about how much I could eat. And wouldn't be a small quantity. I just measure out what I eat and when it's gone, that's it until the next meal. But, I am caving in. I know most of it is head hunger and thats a big problem. I can't seem to conquer that one! But, one of these days! And then there are those days where I want a hershey bar, but I won't get into that. grrrrr

Hey Susan! I think I just might have some restriction today!

Believe it or not..... I haven't been hungry all day. That is sooo cool. Went to Wally World this morning and got one of those bands everyone was talking bout. I think I got one for the Incredible Hulk, cause it's hard to pull. By next month, I will look like muscle woman! lol

later,

lisa

Hi all,

I'm a new bandster from Omaha and would be interested in this group. Can you give me more info. I was banded in Monterrey, Mexico on March 19 so I'm still in the clear liquid stage. Of course I may never find this site again even is I have it bookmarked. Linda

Hey, Mt. Pleasant Bandsters, I would sure be interested in finding out more about your meetings like when and where. I was banded a week ago and feel I will need as much support as I can get. I live in Omaha, just down the road a ways. From what I've heard about people here in Omaha/Naples we have several people who have been banded. Please let me know more info and if anyone banded can come.

Susan, don't ask.... I have wanted to eat the house down this weekend. I think head hunger strikes again. BUT today is a new day and I have made a promise to myself to do better. How's yours?

LLS, how are you this morning? Just being a week out, I guess you are doing the liquid thing still?

Talk to yall later!

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
