  1. Dr. Wohlgemuth performed my surgery and he is very nice. I felt very at ease with him from the start. I would recommend him to anyone. Actually the whole sentara group is awesome. Check out Norfolk Surgical Group.

    Thank you!! I was banded Sep 2008. I lost 70 so far. I am working on these hips boy, it's hard. But I know it will come off soon. I just need to excercise more. Now that it is getting warm I'm going to be outside more.

    63 lbs gone

    OMG!! I just viewed your pics. You are looking good girl!! I am so encourgaged. You are definently on your way. 63lbs gone. Wow!! I am 43 pounds down already and I can't wait. How many fills have you had already? How much is in your band? Do you think you reached your sweet spot yet? I have 6cc in my band now I believe it was 3 or 4 fills I think 4 I'm at work I don't have my little notebook. Congrats!!
  21. I went to my 1st week post op appt today. I asked if any saline was in the band when I was banded? My doc told me that with the type of band I have and it was 1-2cc in it already. So is that a good thing or not. I am on mushies today and I had some chicken in the can and some broccli all to equal up 2oz. I wasn't hungry anymore, I had a protein shake and that was it. Is this good or not?
  22. I was just banded Sep 18, 2008. Everything seemed to be fine. I'm still on liquids. I see the Dr. tomorrow for my 1 week appt. I believe that he will release me to soft foods then. As I was on full liquids. There were times where I feel like I want to burp and I can't. I feel it coming up and then I get a pain in my chest where it won't come up. When I asked about it I was told to walk and it will come up, but it doesn't. Has anyone ever had this problem just being banded?

    Saline before 1st fill

    Wow!! that is great. I am 1 week out and I'm on soft food. I don't feel that hungry. I was told that I'm not hungry because I'm still swollen on the inside. So my fear is when the swelling goes down am I going to be starving, I hope not. I hope it contiues this way. How long before your swelling went down how do you know when you have no more swelling. I don't go back to the Dr. till Nov 4. I'm nervous. I wonder should I just measure and eat, or eat till I'm full.
