Hi my name is Kat,
I have been reading this thread. I was banded 12/10. I had a hernia as well at the same time. It was extra pain:cry I don't know how much weight I've lost. There's no scale at my family's house LOL!
I've only eaten Clear Liquids, popsicles, broth and boost shakes. Jes, I know the shoulder pain you speak of, but it has subsided for the most part. I think it was gas. I took myself off of the liquid drugs my doc prescribed too-made me feel hi. I didn't like that either. I wish my doc said I could have Jello.
Is anyone else tired of the taste of Splenda & equal!?
I snuck a couple of egg noodles into my broth today b/c I was feeling light-headed and lil dizzy. I thought it was lack of "real" food.
