  1. Happy 52nd Birthday bean!

  2. 3 years has passed since you registered at LapBandTalk! Happy 3rd Anniversary bean!

  3. Hi Everyone. I was banded on July 21st. After almost a year of waiting for insurance to approve, it was finally done! I can't believe all the emotions that I have been feeling since. I only had to do Clear liquids the weekend prior to surgery. Lost 10 lbs! Amazed, I remember thinking in pre-op that you know I never really tried that hard to lose any weight. Me, I am always looking for an easy way out of things. Well, these first 6 days have been the hardest days of my life. I wished that I have never done this. I guess I didn't research as much as I should have I wish I knew of this website. I didn't even have that much pain or gas, just the soreness from the surgery. I stayed in bed for the first 4 days, crying and being hungry. Pulled up a full liquid diet from the internet, it had a lot more items to choice from. By day 5, I have eaten a very mushed scrambled egg, a thick cream Soups and fat free puddings. I am and always have been a pickey eater. I haven't check with my doctor in regards to this change of diet, but it seems to be working. I am less hungry, which is making me feel better. I am only eating about 5 tablesoups of Soup at a time. I feel full and satisfied. I can't believe when I go to the doctors on Aug 6, I want to tell him this is not right for me...Take it OUT... I have lost a total of 26lbs, since my pre-op office viist. Still this is not encouraging. I am still thinking about all the foods that I miss and want to eat. My pre-op weight was 255. BMI 42. I could use some feed back. Hungry in Delaware Bean
