Glad your on the mend Manda. I've not tried bending lol. Just pacing the floors. Sleeping lots today, which is good.

Finally, the pain is passing! My incisions feel better, except port side, but manageable! How are my other Feb bands-ters doing?

That's awesome news! My husband says if Water weight counts against u, it should work for u lol. Hope he returns home safe to u soon, u 2 will have plenty to celebrate!

Also, I've never baked them, usually put them in the freezer. These are also called, no bake cookies

These are a Xmas fav of mine! I usually make them without the banana, very yummy. Never knew they were so low in calories. I will for sure be making these more often, they are quick and simple

I was banded 2 days Ago. I recommend sleeping in a comfy chair mostly upright, with additional pillow upright on your back. Walk every hour for 15 minutes, I used a pillow on my belly for support, work your way up to 30minutes, slow pace. Take the pain meds! And have faith day 2 is the worst! Heating pad helps with the shoulder gas pain. Oh, and Popsicles! Good Luck, the best lies ahead!

Oh man, I hear ya. food, wine, everywhere. Order a Soup..... This pain sucks ! And the tylenol 3's r upsetting my tummy, not much orating on he belly

Ya that night shift stuff is rough Mandy. I do outside sales and have to give a presentation om Monday. They'll be eating pizza:(

Really 2 weeks! Crap.

Good Luck. Get a heating pad, for shoulder pain, and take your pain meds . Speedy recovery!

Oh man, I hope I'm better by Monday! I go back to work, full speed ahead! So. Much for Its a minor surgery, 3-5 days and your better...grrrrr. Shoulder pain is gone, just incision pain....pain meds every 3 hours on the bottom. Speedy recovery ladies

Congrats on your decision, now research clinics, get feedback from this sight, and mentally prepare!

I'm officially banded! The CIBO Clinic was amazing! I'm in little pain only discomfort is across my should blades. My throat is terribly sore as well. I've been sipping tea since 2:30 when I got home. Bring on 145! Thank you all for sending me well wishes and your virtual support, so amazing!

Well, I made it! Tomorrow is my big day. I faced many challenges on my pre-op, fender bender with my new car, traveling with an unpleasant colleague for a week. I only had a few cheats, minor ones, but still. Today I nested, lol, like I'm having a baby tomorrow. Cleaned out my cabinets, got rid of a bunch of stuff and filled them with broths, soups, jello, and protein shakes! Get ready, Get set, GO! 145 here I come!

Well, today is a day to getting back to a better me! I'm nervous, excited as u all understand.....can't believe it's finally here! Off I go........

Hi there, I didn't have to do the supervised diet, I'm in Ontario, Canada and the only choice I had was to take a 5 year 18k loan to pay for this. I will recover about 5k thru tax credit, but that's it. Now, on to your, so called aunt, &@, her, I have family like that. A few weeks back I went back home to visit, I hadn't seen my family in about a year, so I called the critical u know what's, and told hem I gained a **** ton of weight, I took the fun out of it for them! And u know what, we will have the last laugh, when u Do loose ur weight, u can killer her with kindness and guilt! Tell her because of her rudeness, and inconsiderate ness towards you, it was a motivator. In he end, u will conquer! Stay strong, stay on this forum. I'm off to get banded.....
