Gained 5 Lbs Since Surgery?!
Banderina replied to kittylove32's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Carolina is right! The funny thing for me right now is Im not even worried about the scale..Im more worried about what I can eat! Spoken like a true addict! -
I too was banded 10/23..i had some grumblings this morning so I just had a half cup of strained tomato bisque soup..it was good and satisfying
