sorry not July...June 18

Ive lost 12 pounds since surgery june 18 feeling good about that..20 pounds is awesome!!!

people started to notice and compliment after ive lost 27 pounds.

Okay i got my first fill today was not bad at all...so far heres my progress my surgery was June 18 start weight 287 surgery weight 272 today weight 260 feeling good about getting my band still got 90 pounds to lose and im goin get there!!!

she only put in 1.5cc my surgeon likes to do a little at a time..seems to think its helps with not having to get unfills, im happy with it just wanta get to the green zone, and im being patience thnks everyone

the fill was very easy, the nurse did numb the area but it wasnt bad at all, and i know its goin take more fills to fill restriction...ive been eating the right food and portions on will power and will continue to until i get to the green zone..im so motivated..

yes you sure can get stuck before a fill, i got stuck before my first fill and i had to throw up, but it was me eating to fast, im still getting use to this band and sometimes i forget i have it...banded june 18 just got first fill today, down 12 pounds feeling good about that.

Ok i was banded July 18 th so i will nbe able to eat solid foods 2 days after my feel tomorrow, im tired of eating the same thing everyday mostly fish, brocolli, thin sliced turkey meat, eggs and mash potatoes....so what r u all eating i need ideas...and thnks

thnks lady and yes had surgery June 18 ...thnks for the tips, i really want a salad cant wait when im able to eat one!"

Yes its meant to stay in forever, although im hearing most are having to have the band removed due to complications!!

Thats what i did put my goal at a size 11/12 in pants not the scale weight..once im able to fit in a size 11/12 jeans i will be one happy camper!

I am the same way, all though i can eat way more i still only eat a half of cup of food 3 times a day and maybe a snack..ive been working out 4 times a week it really helps me this is truely your will power part of being banded, i get my first fill july 17 hope it helps.....good luck everyone.

wow u look awesome!!! good job

Wow hope u r okay..i go for my first fill next week and now im getting nervous!!

Im 3 1/2 weeks post op i havent had a fell yet..im still eating 1/2 cup a meal three times a day..starting last week i have really been hungry those small meals or just not enough..im going off of pure will power...help me here is this what ive been hearing is bander hell?

i think i may have gotten food stuck today, does it feel like somethings stuck in your chest or throat? i didnt slime but i did vomit, i was banded june 18..so does it sound like i was stuck to you all, cause i really dont know how i feel...

i had my surgery june 18th me and my husband has had sex several time but now it seems like im so tight each time like im a virgin all over again, anyone else experience this?

Everyone doc seems to be different. because i was told liquids 1 week post op 1week soft foods 2 weeks semi solids then solid foods, so i say do what your doctor tells u cause we all know all doctors tells us different...good luck

I havent even had my first fill yet, guess its still possible to get stuck huh???
