Doing okay. I have slipped a little. I am about 16 pounds away from my goal. Asked to be on Lomaira again to help with my mid day hunger. It's a tool, not a solution. The hardest thing for me to learn. Keep on going!

Hi! I was a revision from band to sleeve in June 2017! Trying to get back on the wagon again. Only 16 pounds away from my personal goal. Water is a big one for me... oh and carbs and sugar!

I am 60 days post op and down 30#. I can no longer tolerate ground beef, re-heated foods. I gave up Starbucks - my chai tea latte is no more. Cheese is out completely. Breakfast is a protein shake. Followed by 30 oz of water. Lunch is a small salad with Jenny Craig dressing. I can tolerate mashed beans, so I will have a 1/2 cup too. 45 min later another 30 oz water. Dinner is mostly out for me. I have a hard time keeping down the food. Most nights I will have a sugar free Popsicle. I had a few baby carrots and hummus today. That seemed good. I stay away from all white/brown carbs... They don't work! Bread, rice, pasta and all potatoes. Pirates Booty is ok for me. Good luck!

I had my first fill yesterday and have lost 22! I was nervous, it did not hurt. He put in 3cc's and now I'm at 5. First day is kinda rough. I did not eat or drink much yesterday. Just work thru it and breathe!!!

I had my first fill 2 hours ago! He injected 3 cc's. I felt fine in his office! Wow it's tight! Just breathing thru it!

You may add me! tinawalters,

1 container low sodium costco chicken broth 4 carrots chopped 1 broccoli head, chopped 2 big hand fulls of baby spinach 1/2 cup pork loin from my husbands dinner last night Simmer in pot! Take the hand Braun to it! Purée! 2 ladle serving! The rest in tupperware for my next few meals! So good!!!

Are you on protein shakes too??

Mine is tinawalters... I need some pals too!!!

So I've been tracking my shakes, water, Popsicles, jello, and broth... My fitness pal told me that I consumed 500 calories yesterday - is this normal???

OMG! My day is finally here!! Being banded today! Here we go!!!!!

Banded last night. I was the last patient of the night! I am sore!!!

I was wondering if anyone here has shared at work that they have a lap band??

Thank you everyone. I am 3 days away!! My job involves entertaining clients; I am in hotel sales. Maybe that's why I am as heavy as I am. I guess I'm having water!

Anyone else go through Lapband jitters? I am scheduled to have mine "installed" on April 9th. I've stocked up on Protein shakes, clear broths, and sugar free juices. I live 2 miles from the hospital, and it's not until 4pm. So I'm walking to my surgery, my husband will pick me up... but lately, the past few days I have had nervous tummy! Is this normal? I am ready to go... but I've got the jitters!

I am stocking up! My surgery is next week! Any recommendations / brands of protein shakes??? Thx!

I am scheduled for next Tuesday! Feel like I am having my "last supper!" Good luck!
