Hi, I have enjoyed seeing your posts, Today is my one month anniversary!!

So far so good, only one small set back with a port infection. All is well now.

I have just started eating soft foods this week. I am starting to feel a little

more hungry these days, scheduled for my first fill on March 7.

Thanks Everyone, I am feeling great! Yes I did see Delarla's post and it is very scary.

I was lucky to have caught the infection early, My Dr. put me in for IV Antibiotics right away, that really helped. It is a very painful thing. I am guarding it with my life. So far I am loving my band, Everyone I have talked with has been so kind and helpful. I don't personally know anyone else aside from my hospital roomie, with a band. So I have really looked forward to seeing your posts, I have learned a lot. Thanks Again

Kimberly

Hello everyone!! I am Lillie. I was banded on 02/02/2005. I am feeling pretty good so far. I thank everyone for all of their comments. It has really been helpful and has answered a lot of my questions. I still have some soreness at the incision, but other than that I think I am doing pretty good. I have lost 12 lbs since pre-op. I look forward to chatting with everyone and I hope everyone has a great week.

Surgery date :02/02/05

Pre-op weight : 300 lbs

Goal weight : 175 lbs

Present weight: 288lbs

      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.
