Take it easy. I did not have a desire to eat and at times I still do not. Had to get Isopure protein to drink. Make sure you are drinking well. Had lap band 3/30 and still no fill, due to poor appetite and good wt. lost, 23lbs since 3/30.

I was banded same day 4-19 and I have an appt. for a fill on May 21st...but if I dont want one or if I am losing still then I dont have to get one. I am getting hungry for solids, but not craving anything in particular...you know the one thing that I thought I could not live without...PIZZA...never even crosses my mind. I am not saying I will NEVER eat it...but I dont have the I HAVE TO HAVE PIZZA NOW OR I AM GONNA SCREAM attitude that I had pre band. I am eating mushies and tonight I had chicken breast that I cooked all day in crock pot...added some veggies and potatoes....and this evening had a wonderful meal...well, if you can call it a meal...blended up the chicken with some of the juice and it was delicious...veggies were mushy and mashe some potato up.... It was a great and family could eat it too!!

Hey, it's nice to have met someone who had surgery the same time as me. I have been getting on my scale and I know I lost more. About 5 more but I wish it could be 10 more. As for having my first fill, I am looking forward to it. I still feel my restriction but I feel I can eat more than I did in the beginning. I have no problems eating solids. Everything has gone too well. What does that mean? Nice meeting you. Please keep in touch.
