    Not losing!

    Hi all. I myself am going thru the same thing. I was banded on July14th. With the pre & post op diets I have lost only 15lbs. I am eating small portions and exercising as well everyday. I am very frustrated that the scale is not moving either. My 1st fill is not until Sept 5th. I also could use some advice.... Thanks!!
  4. Hi! I am going to the dr on wed for my 1st visit since being banded. I am on liquids since the hospital and hope to move to the new phase of foods. Can anyone tell me what they were allowed to eat in the 2nd phase of foods or "pureed" as they call them. Thanks for your help...
  5. Hi everyone. I was banded this past Monday the 14th and I am feeling pretty good. The worst pain is the air pocket in my shoulder which comes and goes. I am trying to walk as much as possible and are following the liquid diet. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks..:cool2:
