ladyvase replied to JenUlch1's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Iam at 5 wks out and I am hungery very bad. I fight it and stay on a low carb diet. I also fined that I can eat much more food, everyday my hunger grows, I cant wait to get my fill. In the begin I was not hungery but now I am. I know it will get better with each fills..But with fills comes other problems, like pbs and slime and that scares me. Good luck to you -
Eating and drinking at the same time
ladyvase replied to sweeTHEArt's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

Any one Regret Doing the band
ladyvase replied to dales2's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
i was banded on march 1 07, yes there are times when I wounder did I do the right thing? I know I cant do this alone. I have tried and tried. But I feel differently each day, food can not be this important in my life. If I had a tooth ache and the tooth was bad I would tell the dr. to pull it. It is the same thing about the band I had to do it. Like it or not, kinder like tough love. In the long run it is the best for me. As for you well only you know the right thing. I dont like being FAT.....and I AM SURE YOU DONT TOO. GOOD LUCK -
good job.. take care of yourself now more then ever. I was banded on march 1 and felt fine. you will too. good luck
