North Texas here! Went through Richardson True Results! Banded 3/23/12

What is everyone eating for mushies? I've started mashed potatoes and that's about it concerning "real" food. Go for my check uip with the surgeon on Wednesday! Feeling hungry a lot but have stuck to my diet completely. Anyone else feeling hungry?

Hi! My name is Brittney and i'm a 25 year old mommy to one beautiful 2 year old boy named Jackson. I was banded on 3-23-12 and I figured I would keep a little blog about my struggles and successes! Today was my first day back at work since my surgery and it's been surprisingly really good. I have stuck with my doctor's diet to a 'T' but I can feel my body getting more hungry and it actually makes my stomach growl. Even though I would love to eat everything in the cafe downstairs, I haven't. I'm still sticking to my liquids and sugar free stuff. I have my first post surgery dr's appt on Wednesday and i'm really looking forward to visiting with my surgeon and seeing what he has to say and the direction we're moving in. I'm really excited about my new lifestyle and it's hard already but this is the best i've ever done with a new "lifestyle change" and I plan to stick to this as best as I can! But I can't lie, i'm really looking forward to having solid foods soon

So I feel kind of dumb asking but i'm pretty new (banded on 3-23-12) but I was wondering if anyone was eating Nutrigrain bars? I haven't had one since my surgery and i've been following the doctor's meal plan but I was wondering if those were okay to eat eventually? Also any other food ideas would be great!

I'm having the same issue and I was banded on the 23rd. I guess it's just gas? My body tenses up super hard when I try to pass gas through my mouth or bottom. I'm still having trouble burping and I feel hungry constantly but I haven't added the protein drink yet but I'm doing one tonight so I'm hoping that will help but I'm laying in bed as I type this with horrible pains in my back and side

I had dr fox and he was great!! His staff is so friendly and made me feel so comfortable. Loved him!

I take 60 mg of Cymbalta and I took it for the first time today and I think it's making me ill. Anyone else going through this???

I got banded on March 23rd too:) was going to go back to work Tuesday but I'm still having a lot of gas pain and can't walk without my hand on my tummy but I'm doing really good with the walking!

Hi! I was banded Friday and I'm having horrible gas pains too. The only thing that works for me is gas ex strips but I'm still having a lot of trouble burping

I got banded on 3-23-12 (two days ago) and I'm having a really hard time burping and I'm walking and using the gas ex strips! Anyone know any other tricks??
