    B.C. Bandsters..

    Just wondering when there will be another BC support group meeting. I was banded 5 days ago and I would love to get to meet others who are or were where I am now.
  3. Ok, its me again! I was banded on wednesday and it is now sunday and according to my scale I am down 11.4 pounds. I am a glass is half empty kinda thinker so I am assuming it has to be water because its so hard to see a difference. Will I gain that all back when I move on to the next food stage? Did I actually lose that much weight or is it mostly deyhdration? Or should I shut up and be excited?

    weight or water?

    nope, no fill I only had surgery 5 days ago. I am on a clear liquid diet until tomorrow.
  5. Ok, I was banded on the 16th and everything went really well. I was in minimal discomfort, no vomiting just the usual gas pains. So I am on day four and according to my doctor I have to stay on clear liquids for another 2 days. Problem is, chicken broth, vitamin water and jello is not cutting it. I ended up having a quarter cup of a slim fast drink and a pudding cup. Do you think I could have screwed myself in a moment of weakness? I am consuimg everything slowly but I was so wasted from little/no nutrients that I had to do something. Now I feel about a hundred times better but I worry I could have screwed myself.... HELP!

    Post Op Questions

    Thank you, yes tomorrow is another day. But it made me feel SO much better to have something in my system so maybe I will call my doctor and see. Their are so many different versions of the liquid diet, some include tomato soup and milk but mine does not. I will try again tomorrow. I would think that if I screwed something up I would feel it but I guess thats just an assumption. Nothing has changed in my tummy, still just a bit sore and a bit of the gas pressure in my chest and shoulder. I went for a walk to see if that would help but nothing so far. Thanks for the encouragment!
