Hi- I'm interested in keeping in touch with someone who is going to go through this also. Would anyone be interested in sharing the experience?

Thanks verymuch.

Can anyone out there tell me what "PB" is? I keep seeing it but don't know what it means.

Thanks.

Glad you're doing so well. I feel really good too. I've been on clears and protein drinks and yogurt and pudding. I also tried liquified cream of broccoli soup today and it was GREAT! My dietician said I could do clears and full liquids after the first few days. I'm doing ok with no problems - I just take it slow and small sips. I hope you continue to do well-isn't this great!

hI,

noticed that you just got banded. I am envious. My six months of counseling are up, I am just waiting for the insurance co. to approve me. Regarding your liquid diet, any good ideas to pass on? I would appreciate it.

Thanks.

Hi-

The diet is really whatever your doc says. I started out with ice chips in the hospital the first night. I stayed pretty much with Water and my Protein drinks. Since I've been home, my liquids are my Protein Drinks, popsicles (no sugar), no sugar Jello, and broth. I'm just taking it slow and easy-no stuffing. You'll do fine-just listen to your doctor and dietician.

Good luck!

I had my surgery Nov 19th. I can't believe how good I feel. I would love to compare notes with you.

BobP;

What were your symptoms when your blood sugar was down?

I get dizzy and tired,I'm 21/2 wks. post op

I'm eating three times a day,but more than in the beginning. About a cup.

Hi-do you want to correspond strictly e-mail or would you like to do it here? Either way I'll be happy to talk with you.

Hi- how are you feeling? I feel pretty good. I went out today for the first time with my husband and got pretty tired. I don't know if I'm weak or just tired from the surgery.

I haven't checked but do y'all know about the November 07 Bandsters board further down on the list of boards? You'll find lots of folks who were banded close to the same time you were who are going through the same experiences. Come join us!

I'll check that out-thanks very much.
