Let's see if we can get everyone to move over to this new 60+ thread!

I'm celebrating today.... my 6 month bandiversary!

welcome PitPat, This is a great site. I am doing well, had my staples out and feel so much more comfortable. I am still on mushies but can eat tuna, egg and chicken salad. I have found some great pureed soup recipes and have been testing them out. Anyone have any good ideas for the next stage . I am almost afraid to start eating solids again. You guys are terrific!

Welcome to the "newbies".

This is a great site.

A warm welcome to PitPat and Jan. You found a great site here. Jan: I wish you the best tomorrow. I remember how nervous I was, but I am sooooo very glad that I had the LapBand. Hope to get to know you both better as you shrink.

Hi all,

Surgeon rechecked my band, today. The placement looked fine under floroscope. So, he replaced some of my fill. I asked for 1 cc, I think he put 2 1/4. He said if I start pb'ing again, I should call him. He doesn't think I should loose anymore, but I don't want to gain, either. I am happy with my loss, and if I do lose a 1lb or 2, it wouldn't be so bad. Loving life, now. Karen (kll724)

Hi Kll. glad your feeling better. Its funny how each doctor does the same procedure but in a different way. My doc won't give a fill until your six weeks post op. I have lost weight but it's not because of the band. It is teaching me self control though and let me just say I need some of that. Keep up the good work! Also, Pitpat how are you doing?

Hello! I had been thinking about earlier tonight. How are you? Tell me everything! I'm still set for 10/18. I wish it was already behind me. It seems like forever since I started the prep but I know part of that was me waiting for the baby to come. So......it was worth waiting.LOL. Please fill me in on what's been going on with you. I'll be waiting to hear. Take care!

Hello All! Well, tomorrow is THE day. I'm very nervous about now.:thumbup: I have to be at the hospital at 6:00 and I'm the first surgery at 7:30. We will have to leave home at about 4:00 in the morning. I decided I wanted to stay at home tonight and not spend the night there. Everyone please wish me luck and say a prayer for me (and the surgeon).

I will be back to let you know how it goes as soon as I can.:smile:

Blessings,

Pat
