I have to say, I feel great! I am not having any issues. I went for my first post-op visit last week and was told that I can start my mushy stage this week. So, I'm looking forward to a little more solid foods. I do have to admit, I have cheated a couple times and had 'real' food with no issues. I was careful to chew extremely well and take small bites. Other than a little gas, I felt normal.

I am concerned since my appetite has returned. I am looking forward to my first fill. I know that I need the restriction in my band because the hunger can be oerwhelming at times. And a protein shake only lasts for about 4 hours before Im starving again. I know this is normal, and just take each day as it comes.

I'm happy with my progress and know that when I start getting my fills I will feel much better and not so hungry.

Thanks to all of you on this forum, its great to have people of all stages of this process to bounce ideas, comments, and suggestions off of. I have learned so much and appreciate you!

I am at 3 1/2 weeks post-op and I am VERY EXCITED for my adjustment on 1/16. I really don't feel any constriction right now, unless I eat to fast and then I feel sick. Just keep up with the protien, it helps. I also found out the more calories and protein you can get down, the more weight you lose. I have lost 32lbs total. Keep your chin up, keep up the excercise - 15-20 minutes will do wonders and get in that protein! Good luck to you! Leslie
