This is great - how much have you lost in that month? I think I'll do the same for my hubby. Keep up the great work.

I actually lost 44lbs in the frist month:eek: but I had a very complicated surgery due to previous scar tissue issues, It was supposed to take 45 minutes and I was to go home the same day instead it took 5 hours and I had to stay in the hospital for 8 days:frown:, so dont get discouraged if you dont loose that much as I am a special case (Ive been told by my doctor) LoL that being said I have started adding regular foods now that I am 5 weeks post op and I have actually gained 2 lbs this week:scared2:, but the doctor said he wanted me to gain a few lbs back and loose about 8 to 10 lbs per month from here on out:thumbup:. I am scheduled for a fill possibly in 3 weeks, but to be honest I cant hardly eat anything without that stuck feeling starting:confused_smile:, kinda feels like you swallowed a big gulp of air and the pressure is pushing on your throat, doc says to get used to it because thats the way the band works, I have seen people on here that say they can eat a 12" sub from subway:ohmy: after there surgery and I cant imagine even eating a piece of bread much less a whole sandwich, I will post some pictures in 3 weeks then I will be 2 months out. Thanks for all the encouraging words from you guys! C U Later:tt2:
