  1. I am going to be going away on June 1st to a party in LA. I am flying out just for the weekend. Has anyone been on an airplane since being banded? What was the experience? I am scared my band will explode! Lol I also would like to know if anyone has ever had an experience with drinking liquor while banded? I know that there will be alcohol around. By the way I was just banded May 9th!

    Hey May Bandsters, Haven't been on in a while but I am glad to see everyone is doing well! I had my surgery on May 9th and am down only 10lbs. 20lbs. total since pre-op diet. I feel no restriction and seem to be getting discouraged. I have my first fill on June 14th. I am hoping that helps with taking off the weight.

    Getting frustrated! Started my pre op diet 2 weeks before surgery and was banded 5/9. I am only down 16lbs. I had a protein bar for breakfast/lunch because I am not getting enough protein in. I know I am not suppose to be eatting yet! I hope I drop more weight soon!

    Mdfinch can you please send me an invite to may blooming bandsters? Thanks!
  9. I am only 4 days post op and yesterday had a small slice of ice cream cake! It was my son's bday! I couldn't help myself! I am ready to get right back on track. I feel so guilty and I had the worst stomach ache ever! I will never cheat again! I am also not drinking enough protein. I have maybe 5 grams a day. It's disgusting! Any tips on how to make the protein taste a little better?! Omg! I am a mess!

    Let me know if you find out about the broccoli and cheddar soup! I would love that right about now! Lol
  12. I am 2 days post op and feeling good! The first and second day I had horrible gas pains! I am so happy with my decision! I am not hungry at all that frightens me a bit because I can't get down the protein. I hate having to watch my hubby and kids eat regular food but hey this is what I signed up for! I am also having a hard time taking my meds crushed in applesauce! It's horrible tasting! I hope everyone is doing well!

    May Bandsters!

    Well I have been in my pre op diet since April 25th and my pre surgical testing is done. Now I just wait until May 9th! I am so excited about being banded! This is just the begining of an amazing journey. I wish everyone the best of luck!
  15. Welcome! I am scheduled for May 9th! I am also nervous but very excited too. You will do fine! I am here if you need some support:)
  16. I cheated on my pre op diet. I was suppose to be on liquids for the last 2 weeks and I actually snuck food in a few times. Has anyone else done this? Do you think the doc will cancel surgery? I am so disappointed in myself:(
  17. Oh I am happy to hear that! I actually lost 8lbs in 7 days so I should be fine! Thanks!
  18. That is wonderful! My goal is around 140lbs. but I am starting a lot heavier than you. I didn't even know they banded at 160lbs!

    Liquid Diet

    Oh, mine are! I tried different flavors and different brands and they are all equally bad! I am not consuming anything near 1200 cals a day. My hubby says if I can starve now than why do I need the surgery at all.
