I guess i thought it was thick and might prove to be an issue. I am so nervous. Ugh!

I am slated to start drinking the poison in an hour or so. I am worried that I wil not be able to drink it all since I have the band. Anyone having one since the band wil know what the above means. Anyone? Thanks. B

sorry - I haven't been back here since before you posted. I take it at the Mt. Lebanon JCC.

I thought I was getting enough Protein. I eat it and drink it, but maybe I better pay closer atention to it and add more each day. I guess i thought I was losing a little slower than others but maybe just being hard on myself. I am joining a "boot camp" group exercise class in my area starting on Monday so maybe that will get my metabolism going. Another fill. More exercise. Additional protein. That is where I take myself starting today. Thank you.

I was banded on 10/17 - inamed 4cc band (I think) I have about 2cc's in there - Last Friday they increased me from 1.8 - 2.0 - I think I have lost about 46 lbs total, including the 15 before surgery. :thumbup: Slow losing but that is one of the reasons I went with the band instead of the bypass - for slow loss. As of 2 days ago, I can eat more than ever - weird. No sticking, not satisfied, I don't know what the heck is going on. I had been quite restricted prior to that. Anyway, maybe I need another fill to get to where I need to be. The biggest issue I have right now is that my nails are spliting and cracking and dry as heck. My hair is also drier than the usual dry... Anyone else hve that issue and a resolution? Any thoughts. B

Of course I am a Steeler fan! Yes. Was just banded on the 17th.

That's not too far. :-)

Thanks. Me
