That's great !! My day will come. and what a feeling that will be ! Wear em proud

Thank you ! I am hanging in there. Spending the day with my 2 month old grandson tomorrow so that will be the best way to not think of being hungry

Thanks Wendy! I will be happy to get back to work

Thank u !!!! I see you have been banded for some time . And love reading your motivating posts and how you care !

So banded 5/20 and doing great really no complaints . But today I am very hungry !!! Ugh ! And not even for bad food items. I would love a piece of salmon or salad or black Beans with salsa!! And I have one more week to go ! Going back to work which will help so not just sitting home watching cooking shows LOL !! So just venting a little thanks for listening ! Time for my egg beater :!

YUMMY

Oh good ! I miss my DP very much! Maybe someday . . Have a good long weekend.

Nenny !! Congrats. I am 5 days post op and doing great. Everyday gets better and better. So happy I made this decision ! Hope you have a good recovery ! Listen to your body and doctors orders and you will be fine

I was told absolutely NO CARBONATED beverages. I'm not trying to tell you what to do but i would double check that with your Doctor.. This coming from a # 1 diet Pepsi fan. Have not had one in over two weeks

Hi ! I agree first 48 hours were tuff. I was banded on the 20th. I'm still very sore in the port area but feel really good. I'm doing ok with the Protein, but it is difficult . I am following the guidelines and that seems to help. Make sure to sip lots of fluids. Take care !

Best of luck !!

Best of luck and congrats !! Banded May 20th and doing very good and you will too

Best of luck !! Banded may 20th an doing great and so will you !!!!

So many stories of what u can and can't have . I am able to have yogurt, cottage cheese based on my Dr's instruction. Banded May 20th. Doing great! Please do what your doctor is telling you. If you have any doubt call your doctor. !! Don't make any changes based on what others are doing /saying. Everyone is different and Doctors as well! Best of luck !!!
