Ok , Yesterday am I had my first BM, then later I went again this time it was soft not like water, no big deal. I went about 5 times yesterday..OK I know what your thinking, that I'm just full of chit. Today its starting again I went 3 times this morning..Is this normal ????? Ted

Hey Jeff (sportsscribe) How you doing ?? Ted....

Good Luck !! I had mine done last Wed, all went great..very happy lost about 10lbs since the band....

I had my first mushies (well smooth like to go through a straw) this morning. I had 1 cup of coffee and sipped it for almost an hour, then had 1/4 cup of Gerber oatmeal baby cereal and a little jello. Jeff (want the band) The more liquid you add to your puree food mix will change it from mushies to almost full liquids. You will have to decide what you can tolerate and adjust the liquid content. Ted

:clap2: WOW, what a GREAT DAY !!:clap2: I start mushies today and had my 1st real BM today!:nervous Things are going good for me , still no pain just a little gas pain now and then. I have a little bruising around the port area and only one other area, not bad 2 out of 5. If any one go's to TJ Mexico for there band and have to stay in a Hotel ,DON'T stay at the Palacio Azteca,( The Hotel Is Nice But) unless you like the noise from the street all night long and very hard beds..Ask you Dr. to stay some place different, if the hotel is included in the package . Ted

Hey great news Lee4love1:clap2: and welcome !!

Hi Pax10, and welcome :clap2: !! My name is Ted and I just got my band on Wed in TJ Mexico,and the price for my band was around $8,000 with free fills. Dr. Kuri is one of the BEST Dr.s in Mexico or the USA..they have been doing banding in Mexico longer then here..If you are thinking of getting the band check him out. 1-888-223-4046 or belightweight.com I'm very happy with the Dr.Kuri and the care from all the staff there, if I was to do it all over, I would do it the same way! Ted

Hi, just got my band owned, all went well and got home last night. I found out I lost 8lbs since we left for Mexico even though Tue night after the tests there, we went across the street and had the best Mexican food with 2 margaritas each that we have had in a long time. No pain , so no pain pills needed , just a little GAS.. Dr. Kuri was great there were 3 of us guys that were banded on Wed .I got up and started walking right after they took me back to my room. After a few laps around I was walking faster and faster, The Dr. said that he hasn't seen anyone walk so fast and for so long in a long time, he also said this is the best way to get rid of the gas faster..Ted

:clap2: Hey Guys, just got home about 45min ago from Mexico, as Jeff said were all doing real good . I still have no pain just GAS !! Farted all the way from Mexico!!:heh: Well got to eat drink slurp or what ever with my soup.. Talk later,Ted:)

Hey welcome Tarami !!!!:clap2: ------------------------- that video is great, can't wait to try it... ------------------------- I'm still sick, getting a little better I guess , been loading up on drugs.. ------------------------- I guess I'm lucky, I didn't have to do the nutritionist or a physiologist with my Doc. That must mean he thinks I'm Fat and Nuts and don't need a second opinion on it..:guess.. LOL... Boy the weekend is here already and Tue will be here sooner then I think for the trip to Mex. I sure hope they have a extra long bed for me, I'm 6ft. 6in. tall and I really don't want my feet to hang off the edge of the bed all the time..later guys Ted
