Congrats!!! @@loulou12 I'm going for my first fill tomorrow. Super excited! My weight hasn't budged in 2 weeks hope tomorrow changes that. You would like to know about the waist trainer as well. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I haven't had any issues at all, but I'm only 4 weeks post op. I don't think I have any Fluid in my band yet. I haven't lost any weight in the last 2 weeks either. My first fill is Monday. I hope hope I get some restriction. I feel like I'm only gonna lose weight if I do low carb or something until I get to the green zone. I know lately I've been in a terrible mood. Probably from not losing any weight. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I read on another post you are in Houston? I'm just 45 minutes away in West Columbia Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Just had my first dr visit since getting my band and so far I've lost 21lbs. So proud of myself. ????????????That includes the 2 week pre op diet and the two weeks after surgery. Now on to mushy foods tomorrow. Any suggestions on your favorite mushy foods?? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thank you!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thank you!!!! I feel the same way! Hope you have a wonderful thanksgiving as well Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Well I'm starting solid foods and I have no restriction. However I get hiccups after a few bites. So I try to stop then. I know any weight loss is just pure determination because I feel like I could eat anything. I'm excited to get my first fill Monday. But I feel like I've gained weight. Trying to not be discouraged but I want to see the scale move in the other direction. Good luck on your next fill. I should find out more about mine. Not sure how much my holds or if there is any Fluid inside mine when I was banded. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

After I eat anything I get hiccups but only like 3/4 hiccups and then they stop... Anyone else having this issue? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Yeah I'm at a stand still right now. I know I have no restriction except will power. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I totally agree!!! Of course I'm a newbie and go for my first fill Monday but I think if you listen to your body and band you will have great success. I'm ready for my hunger to subside Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
