Hello Shirley! Thanks for the sisterly love.. I will work hard to do something about those cravings... Its been my weakness

Yeah I know... my nutritionist told me its ok to have yogurt the 4th day.. I started reading the forums and found out that some didnt drink it till a week later.. I was bloated yesterday from the protein shake and got so paranoid and called the doctors office upset lol! But he told me supposedly its ok.. people telling me different things.. Im kinda getting confused so I stopped the yogurt and its my 9th day and Im still in clear liquids haha... so scared to feel bloated again or mess up my band. Plus I dont mind being in liquids for a while as long as I will be ok.. its my 9th day and I already lost 7 lbs! Yey! My only problem is my obsession with the scale lol ....................... and sucked on a cheetos puff... ( HeyJust wanted to taste it k lol ) I will agree to be in liquids forever as long as I have cheetos puff lol!

Thank you everyone for all the suggestions. I love this forum! Everyone are so friendly. I think I didnt explain myself clearly on my last post... I was on clear liquids for 3 days and started drinking liquid yogurt the 4th day but Im still on liquids. I drink clear liquids still and drank Protein light shake on the 4th day. I thought yogurt was fine on the 4th because my nutritionist said that its ok to start on the 4th day. I had no problems drinking anything till I changed my Protein Shake from Atkins to Muscle Milk light... I was sooo bloated yesterday and felt like theres something stuck at my chest. I usually just drink 2 protein shakes and drank 3 yesterday. I didnt eat my jelo or drink yogurt today. All I had the whole day is half of protein shake this morning, a small bottle of gatorade, 4 bottles of Water and a soup. I got worried and called Dr. So and he told me that its normal to feel like this and what I need to do is just walk it around and buy gasx strips. It actually helped a lot! Now I feel a lot more better thou I still feel that something is stuck in my chest. I know I should be on full liquid now but I just hate the feeling so Im planning to just stay clear liquids till tomorrow and walk a lot more. Now Im worried when I start on eating mushy food P.S Oh yeah... I weighed myself today and lost 7 lbs in total!!!! I am on my 9th day.. so happy!

Wow! Thats really good! 9 lbs! Congratulations! Good for you!

I was banded on: 06-14-11 and I lost 5 lbs

These are the reason why I dont want anyone to know about my band and more. The reason why I got the band is because I constantly being asked about my weight. Co workers Asking me.. "Have you weigh yourself lately?". It hurted my feelings that I wanted to cry on the spot and so I told them.. "Well Im planning to do the lap band thing" Well after a few days they kept asking me about it and bugging me if Im gonna do it. I told them yeah. And guess what they said? "Well you you know If you loose weight by exercising, you will get more respect" I know what you feel. They dont want you to loose more weight than them. So from then on when they ask me about if Im gonna do the band I just tell them, "No I dont have money so Im just dieting." and any other personal questions I just ignore them and dont reply back.

Hello Bandsters! Im new to this forums and Im glad I found it. I started reading some of the posts and I decided to make my own account. I know I will be here for a while lol! First Hello to June 2011 Bandsters! I got banded on: 06-14-11 and I am on my 8th day. I did the 1-3 day clear liquid and started yogurt on the fourth day.. I hope the yogurt is not too early.

I feel the same.. I usually just drink 2 protein shakes a day and today I drank 3. I in the morning, at lunch and one around 5pm. I felt bloated and whenever I walk, I feel a litlle pain at my left side of my stomach. Feels like a needle poking me... and now I feel like throwing up a little.
