I know I'm not in the green zone yet, I only got 1.6cc fill, I'm choosing to make better choices with my food, but still get hungry in a couple of hours after eating, trying together my water intake is the hard part!

Got my first fill today:), everything is going great, already down 22 pounds, exercise has increased and feel more energized. So thankful I had my band done. It's a great tool to help you loose weight! But remember you have to do your part in this lifestyle change:)

Between surgery and first fill...

25 pounds is a lot of weight, the slower you loose the better the chances you keeping it off! Lap band is a great tool to help you loose, the real challenge is changing your eating habits. Focus on the habits that need to be changed rather than how quickly you will loose. It's real important to change the food attitude. I want to have the attitude "Eat to live not live to eat! Keep up the great work and let the band work for you:) -
I had my surgery May 23, and so far so good:), but I am getting hungry more lately but really need to start drinking more water. Getting my first fill Jun 16. Thanks y'all for being here!

I was banded May 23, please follow doctors orders, walk, rest, sip clear liquids. I stopped taking pain meds one day in after surgery, they made me feel worse. Oh and no lifting! You will be feeling great very soon! I'm down 17 pounds in just 8 days! I'm sure a lot of water weight. Good luck!

Need some good protein shakes

I really like the Orange Cream "Lean" GNC, they have several other flavors as well. Also Ensure active is great -
It's normal that you question yourself. I cannot explain the newness my body feels just having it done. You will not regret it. Keep the faith to be healthy!

Doc cAlled yesterday to check in in on me, had to tell him feeling great! Went back to my shop yesterday and I have to admit, I was a little tired after a long day.
-
I was banded May 23 and feel great, just a little tenderness near port incision, but other than that, feeling great. I stop taking pain meds 2 days after surgery and that helps too!
-
Banded today and so far so good, just tired:) Praying tomorrow goes well too!
-
Will do, my sister is having hers done the same day too! Starting two days of clear liquids then surgery on Friday, so excited and nervous at the sane time:)
-
So excited to get banded the same day as my sister!, It's a journey we can do together. Although we live in different parts of the state, we can help each other along the way! I have a wonderful support group and blessed to have found this group as well! Keep us in your prayers, getting a little nervous as it is approaching quickly!
