I was banded 15 Aug still have pain on left side (prob port area) it does eventually go away so I hear

Hi

I was banded on 8/20/07.

My name is Amy.

I look forward to sharing with you.

Hey whats up all,

Well very pleased not alot of hunger and have gone from 286 to 258 since 8/15 banding Not always easy but worth the hard times when they do come keep up the good fight!!:ranger:

OMG, that is so awesome!!! I hope that I continue to lose like I am. I lost 11 pounds so far since my surgery a week ago. I really did not expect to lose so fast, but my chunky butt is definitely not complaining.

Congratulations!

Hi Amy,

i started at 170 lbs, goal is 130.

how do you feel?

i have discomfort on the left side, sounds like everyone does.

cream soups fill me up also.

feel a little fatigued, was told that could be a sympton of dehydration.

So do you know how they add the weight ticker to the messages?

Regards,

Stephanie

I am down 19lbs but my right side hurts not my left. My port is on my right so that may explain it. I am having soft foods now and it has been a little difficult this weekend since my son just got married last night and we had food galore! I won't be able to see my surgeon until Sept. 20th because I have to go out of town for work:faint:so I hope he give me a fill then. It will be tough to try to find something to eat out while I am gone.

Does anyone know when I will be able to swim? I will be 2 weeks out Monday!

Bit late I know, but I was an August bander on 27th and I am alibob

Great to see all this usefull info

Pre Op - 280lbs

Post Op - 271lbs
