    How Is Everyone Doing?

    I've been stuck for the past few weeks. I get my second fill on Thursday and looking forward to it!

    How Is Everyone Doing?

    Things are going good. I am losing but it is still a lot on will power but knowing that I get my second fill on October 18th helps a lot.

    Duration Of Pre-Op Diet?

    I begin my pre-op diet tomorrow. I am looking forward to the journey. My surgery is August 1st so my pre-op diet is one week. I notice that many people have 2+ weeks of pre-op diet. Why the variation? Any insight? I'm just curious.

    Starting To Get Freaked Out:(

    It is completely normal to be nervous. Just remember that the journey has begun. This is what we've wished for and it is the stepping stone to unlock the new you! I am just 5 days post-op and I feel great. The surgery is something these doctors do so many of and you are going to be fine. I hope you find ease.
  6. ...of failure? I'm sure this is somewhat normal but I just want to hit the ground running and find success. I am mostly nervous about the time between having the surgery and the first fill. My doctor schedules the first fill after 4-6 weeks of the surgery. Do people still lose during that time? My surgery is August 1st. I'm excited for the journey.

    I'm Banded!

    WooHoo! I was banded this morning. For the most part, I feel good, considering. I am walking around the house just fine. FYI...the worst part, for me, is the pain in my chest and especially me neck! The left side of my neck feels like I have 5 pulled muscles in one spot. This is all from the gas and as soon as that goes away, life will be great! Congrats to all who were also banded and the others with a lapband in their very near future!

    2 Weeks Out

    I only had a 1-week fast. The first 2 days I had a heavy headache. I did find it hard to follow the diet but for the most part, I did it. Confession, one day I took a bite of my daughter's pizza. =-( I was just banded yesterday and I feel great! I would definitely suggest that you do nothing but rest the day of your surgery. My surgery was at 8:00am and I was home a little past noon. I needed to sleep a lot the day of surgery. However, it is Day 2 and I am walking around with no problem! In fact, I planned to start work on Monday but I have decided that I will be fine to start tomorrow. Everyone is different and everyone's body responds to surgeries differently. Good Luck!
