Doing well Brenda! Mushies are fun, but challenging! It's hard to only eat softy stuff, but trying out new recipes is fun! i bet this week is going by super slow for you! Oh and I lost 2.5 more pounds! So hooray!! My fave softy so far is garlic mashed potatoes...mmmmm!

just wanted to tell you, you look great! what a difference in your face! keep up the great work!

i agree it could be not enough water. that was always an issue i had when i was prego and i knew i needed to drink more H20. let us know if you get it worked out! hopefully it goes away soon.

I have a horrible taste in my mouth all the time, anyone else dealing with this? If you've dealt with this how do I get rid of it? It's at the point that I don't want to eat anything because the taste is so gross. Anyone help??? thanks! :confused_smile:

I had a very easy time getting approved! Tricare is the best! The ladys answered my questions and were so sweet! Happy to have you here! -

I got to start mushies today!!! Which is SUPER exciting! It's hard to stick with the liquids but the campbells select soups really hit the spot. Plus I made egg drop soup and that was yummo too! It feels great!!! I can't believe how great it's going. I'm sure that before my first fill I'm gonna end up in bandster h*ll but for now it's exciting as ever! I can't wait to see what happens when I start working out! That'll be exciting!

everyone is doing great!!!! I have lost a total of 20 pounds, 5 pre-op and 15 since being banded on the 16th. I know thats totally not normal but I have been having to chase my kids around this week, as my hubby is deployed and his mom could only take off work until Tuesday. So I HAD to get up and be active with them, but it's been ok. I'm so excited to be on this journey! I can't wait to see my hubby's face when he comes home!

I HAD to step on the scale today, and I had to get back on like 10 more times!! I started a pre-op diet 2 days before surgery and before I left for the hospital I was down 5 pounds. So my high was 270, pre-surgery was 265 and today it's at 250! How friggin exciting is that!!! I couldn't believe my little eyes! That means that this is gonna work! Plus I'm overcoming my head hunger, I think thats the hardest part! But wahoo!!!!

10 Day Post Op/ Woke up weak and exhausted
JenniLeen replied to larakathyleen's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
This was an issue my mom had too. It took her about 2 months to feel totally "normal" again. She took it slow. She didn't go to the gym, she just walked around her neighboorhood and did some light weight lifting at home. She started the gym a month after her surgery and had a few days that she was so exhausted. Like grey said, take it easy on yourself. this is the time for our bodies to heal and even though we may feel good our insides are still trying to recover. It'll get better! -
