I had salad today and some quesadilla(sp). I didn't have a problem should I be worried?

Maybe I should get a fill early? I'm feeling hungry again and very thirsty.

Does the band have to have a fill for weight loss to start? I'm still at 200lbs and it's not budging! I'm gonna "budge" that scale right out the window!

Nah, that sounds totally normal. You don't WANT to have problems to know it's working! Goofball! It's 3 weeks til your fill... just hold out. Are you going to Miss. for it, or getting it there? Besides, I'd want my port as healed as possible before I have some creep 'palpitating' it. How's it feeling, can YOU push on it comfortably?

How many time have you heard us saying that the first 6 weeks are about healing, not losing? DON'T worry about it! You'll start losing soon. You wanna heal now. You don't have to have a fill to start losing, it happens sometimes too. You're still not going to be able to eat as much, fill-less, as you could have prior to banding. I couldn't at least. It was way more than now, but less than before, so.... I lost before my first fill. Not much though.

Just get healed!

(I'm just bein' tough on you cause I know you can take it )

Thanks Mom.

I'm off to BC for some skiing...watch the news for "Fat Chick slimes ski hill and pops a port!!"

Have a great weekend everyone.

Don't worry, wait til your first fill, that'll make a difference.

Have fun skiing.

Mookie, you are hilarious, have fun skiing and call me next week sometime, we'll go for coffee. Still not sure if I can drink coffee pre op, but we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.
