Hello all who were banded on March 25th...just thought we could check in...

My scale mysteriously appears in my bathroom every Tuesday morning...(husband hides it the rest of the week). I am down 9 lbs since surgery. I am disappointed and thrilled at the same time. How is this possible?? Disappointed- I thought it would be more--I have been on regular food for a week now...my dr advances us quickly. I am just eating so little. Thrilled because 9 lbs in 3 weeks is really good..

I am feeling tired this week...maybe I over did it this weekend or maybe the flu bug is around the corner?? who knows??

How are you feeling??? how is your weight loss??

Hi March 25th-ers - if that's a word:biggrin:

How's everyone doing?

Had my first fill today and I am STARVING on just liquids! Hope some restriction kicks in when I start eating food again?

I know there were a few of us who were also having first fills today? How'd it go? How long are you staying on liquids?

Had my first fill as well last tuesday and still feel no restriction,boooooooooo I have to wait 2 weeks for another.I can eat anything and everything,never been nauseated not even after surgery.lost 24lbs but nothing the past 2 weeks.ai keep losing and gaining the same few lbs.I just want that full feeling again like after surgery.Good luck everyone in our next month.It would be nice if we could all fine our sweet spot

Hello 25th bandsters...

I went to my 5 week appt..and Dr. said no fill..."are you sure?" yes I am sure...Dr. said I am losing 2.15 a week and wants to wait another month unless I am getting really hungry in between meals. So I really need to pay attention to my hunger. Appt. went well, I asked about the shoulder pain...his explaination is the port tubing is rubbing up against the bottom of my diaphram which has a nerve that is connected to the left shoulder. Solution- move around :thumbup:---okay dr. will do :biggrin: "will it go away?" if you move :frown:

Also asked if I can have a Diet Coke...dr said " do you need it?" well no, I just really want one once and a while. He promised I won't explode!! As you can tell my dr. has a great sense of humor!!! That's it for my updates!

Take Care,

Michelle
