Ok I am in bandster hell also. I was banded on March 20 and I lost 30 lbs like that now I'm even for days. Yes the hunger is really there and I using all the will power I can muster up. But I know it's a marathon not a sprint, heck if it was easy I would have list it all long ago. Keep strong and keep your bow pointed North.

I just started mushies a couple days ago, but every time I eat it feels like something is stuck in my throat. I know my bites are small and well chewed, anyone give me advice on what is happening here? Thanks can't wait to hear from ya'll.

Oops forgot goal weight 225 The weak minded refuse to change and look for the easy fix. The strong of heart and mind know its a marathon not a sprint and do the whole 26.2. :-)

Age 47 Start weight 331 Day of Banding 320 Now 8 days 303 Banded 3/19/2013

Hey I am one week post banding but last couple days my loss has been 4 pounds a day. I am following all my eating protocols, should I be worried its going too fast? What are your thoughts.

Sure I started at 331 before pre op diet at day of banding at 320, finally at 7 days 303. :-)

I am 8 days myself I had a lot of back pain, I used the pain meds a couple days. But I was able to burb hours after surgery. A heating pad and Tylenol helped with the back pain. Let me share that from 2 week pre op diet until now I am 27 lbs lost. I only have 1 chin and when I look down I see my feet. I know it's going to slow down but I've blown away my 1st two goals in a week. Keep it up and follow your diet, the weak are self defeated and the strong leave a better looking corpse in the end. :-)

Very awesome I was banded on Tuesday and have had good and bad so far. Got on the scale for the 1st time since pre op Monday and have lost 5 additional pounds this week. Keep up the good work most my pain at this point is port and staples. Staples at this point itches.

I'm 2 days post op how long do you feel this dehydrated. I don't seem to be able to shake it but I don't want to drink too much. Also what kind of sleeping complications have you dealt with I have pains almost every where and its very hard to get comfortable. Thanks for any input.

In also 2 days post op and just have a ton of pain with the staples and the area where the reservoir is. Drinking is a chore it takes a while but I've been really dehydrated.

I'm 2 days away and I am terrified so I know where your at. Pre surgery diet list 11 pounds I lost my pants walking into a building today. Now that's a sign of things to come my fears my subside quickly.
