My journey began four days ago when I had the Realize Band put in. It was a bumpy road getting to the approval stage but after a year, I was approved and then things started moving fast. The two week liquid diet before surgery was not easy but I lost 15 pounds before surgery so that was nice.
I am still in the recovery mode but every day is better. I was thinking I would be up running around 3 days later. :drum:
I am committed to making this lifestyle change and am excited to read all of the success stories on this website.

Now that I am a week past my surgery, I am feeling more like my normal self. I am disappointed that the pounds are not dropping off as they did during my pre-surgery diet. :thumbup: I understand that I won't be able to fill for 8 weeks after surgery. Was that the typical recovery time for you and how many cc did they fill the first time?
