    Wow! You're doing great, I was banded on November 20, only lost 15lbs. I go for my first fill this coming Friday, so hopefully that will help with the often hunger attacks. Keep it up!

    Congrats on your 1rst fill and thanks for sharing. I go on Friday for mines and I'm still a little nervous. Did you eat before your fill?

    Banded on November 20, 2012 and somehow my scars are red and really itchy. Especially the port one. Any suggestions before I go nuts?

    Sorry I had to have my chai tea (us) this am, i know it's not permitted but that's one thing I cannot sacrifice due to the caffeine.

    Thanks everyone, I scheduled a deep tissue massage this am with my therapist, luckily she is a good friend whom is not into Black Friday shopping. My surgeon never put me on any special diet before the banding so I could also be going thru caffeine withdraw.

    I was told by the nurse at the hospital that apple sauce and cottage cheese was allowed on the second stage which is 4th day to 14th day. However the nutrionist told me no, those foods were allowed after the 3 rd stage. Little frustration at this point, but other than that very happy that the journey has started. Any tips are welcomed and appreciated! :-)

    Pain Is mild, just feeling very full and finding it very hard to drink the amount of liquids that I was told that I needed to take in. How about your pain? How are you doing overall?
