  1. JSRodgers, How are you feeling now. I am back at work and back to some level of normality. Still on liquid as my lap band came with a 3ml fill. Have lost 9-10kg (about 20 pounds) already. I can go to my wardrobe and chose anything at the moment and it fits. Looking forward to breaking out the huge bag of clothes that didn't fit soon. I hope you are going well and are experiencing some positives. I am missing food and there has been more of a mental battle than I was expecting but I am feeling really positive about the future. Hope you are well. JMJ
  2. Glad to hear our reservations are normal. I had a bad afternoon yesterday, should have taken some pain meds but didn't, probably the low point since coming home. Had some yoghurt this morning thinned out with milk, it was really nice. I have just been having Protein shakes and milk until this morning. Only put 3/4 cup in the bowl and then added milk and still couldn't eat it all. I think I am scared of having too much. Lots of strange burping/gurgling sensations after I eat. A fair bit of bruising is coming out now and I woke up a bit sore around the main wound. I have noticed that eating liquids only is really challenging my past habits. I guess it a brillant way to break them! I hope you feel better today. I have booked a family holiday for Christmas time and when I feel a bit down I think about how I am going to look by then and why this discomfort is worth it. Good luck for the day ahead!
  3. Congratulations. I was banded on Monday and came home yesterday. Feeling ok but imbarassingly I have bad gas, I think this is normal. Feeling much better. On day 1 I got totally overwhelmed by my decision and what was in the future for me. I feel better now and I am excited about what is ahead. Plus just through fasting and surgery I have dropped about 5-6 kilos which made the pain a little easier to bear. I am sure lots of that is just fluid loss! Good luck with everything, I am in Australia, where are you from?
