Had my first fill yesterday and
msthang95 replied to Mandymoo13's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had my first fill last week and I am not feeling anything it seems like I am eating more I go next week to get another fill hopefully that works I eat 5 small meals a day and for snacks I eat Popsicles, yogart, pudding and jello-mostly sugar free or low fat it seems like I am going backwards although I am losing weight -
I went to get my first fill last wed and I still do not have the restrictions yet I go next week for my second fill but I am still working on eating slower, & at least a minute in between & counting calories better I eat 5 small meals when should I go to 3 meals and be in the green zone

Oh its just one of those minute counters when a minute up you flip it...it came with my lap band welcome kit

Smoking prior to surgery
msthang95 replied to Omfgmelly's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My band date was Wed of last week so its been 6 days for me cold turkey and my boyfriend smokes so the temptation is there I just gotta remember I am healing and that could cause damage be strong u can do it....for me no smoking, no food so no gaining weight, no gum not in my post-opt diet....lol...good luck -
I too work a desk job also and I took off F, Sat of last week and M, T of this week giving me a total of 7 days off I ran those 4 days into my off days...I did that to make sure my body can handle sitting all day any pain due to the recovery and also my co-workers joy is to talk about food and bring it to their desk and I have to mentally be prepared for that

I was recently banded Wed April 10th and I am too choicy on many foods (liquids) O would rather not eat so far that is I can start my soft foods on Wed would it mess anything up if I start my soft foods today or tom?
