Went for my one week and lost 11 lbs. Dont get my fill until July 15th at 1:30.. My doctor will be on vacation at my 6 week and I will be the next week so that is why Iam scheduled that late.. I will have to stay really on top of what I eat so I dont gain weight.. one more week until mushies... yee haw.

I do get yogart and cream of wheat now...:smile2:

I was banded on 5/19 as well. Went for my 1 week post op and everything seems to be going well. Immediately after surgery, I gained back 5 pounds of the 20 pounds I lost during the 2 week liquids prior to surgery. Today, when they weighed me, I lost the 5 pounds gained post-op and another 9 pounds. So far, down 29 pounds from start of 2 week liquids. You are a bit more fortunate than I as I have 3 more weeks of full liquids until I am allowed "mushies". Good luck to you!!

Hello May 19th band friends! I also had mine done on the 19th. I don't go in until a 2 week check-up. I can't believe how much you both have lost. I don't own a scale in my house so I have no idea how much I have lost.

I have to just keep saying that anything I've done is better than nothing or gaining!

We have 8 of us on the 19th of May...dont know where they went.. I am eating yogurt and creamy soups now.. but cant wait until next week for mash potatoes.... I also have my protein drinks.. try to be creative with them so they are different...

Hope you all are doing well//

I was banded May 19 also. I have been having feelings like I am going to burp or urp or something. I keep fighting it. I am wondering if the yogurt was getting to me. I haven't ate any today and have only had this a little. I am so afraid of messing up my surgery. Anyone having anything like this?

Off topic...

How do you get the "ticker" under your posts? I created one but then when do I do?

Thanks!

I was having similar feelings, but most have already subsided. I think that much of the surgical swelling has gone down and I am now able to eat a little more without getting the intense tightness. Hopefully, I will not get too hungry prior to my first fill on 7/1. How are the other 5/19 folks doing?

Getting anxious to have different choices with the mushies... when are you all starting them.. my DR said I could today. but I am scared to .. might have mash potatos for dinner!!! not a lot.. just a few bites... I did have potato soup last night it was great... other than that I have been totally on liquids...

I have already had some of the lite cream soups which I tolerated well. I also had a small piece of sword fish last night (Approx. 3 oz) and some crackers and applesauce this morning. So far, so good. I also had some V8 juice yesterday and it wnet down without any proble. I will say, I did feel the fullness of the band last night and stopped eating. Be sure to chew thoroughly and eat slowly with whatever you consume and you will become familiar with the "full" feeling. Good luck.
