    MY LAPBAND JOURNEY - 1 WK. POST OP

    JAN. 24, 2011 - MONDAY - 1 WK. POST OP - WELL I WENT TO MY DR. APPT. TODAY. I LOST 10 MORE LBS. TOTAL WT. LOSS 26 LBS. YEH! MY STERI STRIPS WERE TAKEN OFF AND THE INCISIONS ARE HEALING WELL. MY DIET WAS ADVANCED TO PUREED. NO MORE PROTEIN SHAKES - YEH! I AM TO RETURN IN 1 WK. FOR MY NEXT APPT. I WENT TO WALMART TO CELEBRATE BY BUYING SOME NONFAT AND SUGAR FREE FOOD FOR MYSELF. WHEN I GOT HOME I MADE MYSELF SOME PUREED TUNA WITH A BIT OF FAT FREE MIRACLE WHIP AND HAD SOME NO ADDED SUGAR APPLESAUCE AND A SMALL CONTAINER OF HIGH FIBER PEACH YOGURT. IT TASTED YUMMY! I FELT SATISFIED. I HAVE TO REMEMBER THOUGH - NO DRINKING 1/2 HR. BEFORE OR AFTER A MEAL. AND NO MORE THAN 3/4 CUP OF FOOD EACH MEAL. I THINK I OVERDID IT TODAY - I AM VERY TIRED SO I THINK I WILL GO TO BED NOW! GOODNITE ALL!!!!

    First fill

    I was wondering what a "fill" would feel like? I suppose it won't be until at least a month post op? I am only 1 wk. post op now.
  9. roseyposey

    Oh man...What did I do...

    Portion control is very important. I never eat more than 3/4 cup at mealtimes. 1/2 hr. later if I still feel hungry - I can have 8 oz crystal lite drink or whatever to fill me. It seems to work. I stay satisfied. The more liquid you drink - the less hungry you will feel. Good luck and I hope it gets easier for you. p.s. - I know what ya mean by the pain when overeating though - my first meal this wk. I had scrambled eggs and didn't chew enough. Well I got spasms like you wouldn't believe! I learned my lesson. Chew chew and chew. And take 20 min. to eat your meals.

    3 weeks post op

    I am 1 wk. post op - and portion control is def. the key. I only eat 3/4 cup at mealtimes. It seems to satisfy. And then 1/2 hr. later I can always drink some crystal lite or something to fill in for the hunger if any. It seems to work. I was wondering how long I should wait for my first fill? It seems like 1 month post op huh?

    When will this weight just start falling???

    Wow - that is depressing! I am 1 wk. post op and lost 10 lbs. just this past wk. I sure hope this is not what I have to look forward to down the road. A huge lul in wt. loss. I have no clue when or if I need a fill yet???? Maybe they will tell me at my 2 wk. post op dr. visit? Well I sure hope things start going better for you. Hang in there though and don't give up. Maybe a lil more exercizing will help??? I don't know. Take care.

    Wishes I'd never done this....

    Wow - I too am 1 wk. post op and I lost 10 lbs. this past week. Sorry to hear you are not having much luck. Maybe something in wrong. I would go get checked by the Dr. That would def be very frustrating. Hope things get better for you. Please let us know.
  13. Well the 1/2 cup of scrambled eggs went down alot better today. I remembered to chew them to death! lol Had a lil tomatoe soup for lunch along with a few tiny wheat crackers with pureed tuna on them. YUM - No pain from those either! So far so good! I think I might be gettin the hang of things! Ha ha

  14. Well I did some experimenting today. I tried some baby food stage 2 chicken and some peas and applesauce. Well let me tell you - now I know why babies spit that shi_ out! ha ha! Tastes gross. So I am going back to my pureed tuna with a bit of fat free miracle whip. And I will pureed my own veg. and use my own no sugar added applesauce for now on. I did have a scrambled egg this am for breakfast and I did not chew it enough and I got some very painful spasms that were not pleasan...
