I am right there with ya! I could eat anything! I am getting full quicker, but still I feel like I am hungry all the time! I have my fill Oct 9th I am so ready!

I agree I think that protein would help you a lot. It is very hard to get it in sometimes. I have found I love Egg Beaters with a wedge of Laughing Cow Garlic and Herb Cheese! I also like a spoon full of Jiff penutbutter made with Splenda. If you like yogart you might try the Greek Yogart it has a lot more protein!

Mushie Stage B- 1/4c egg beaters with a wedge of Laughing Cow Garlic and Herb Cheese L- Low Sugar Oat meal D- Chicken and Stars soup -
I was banded on 8/27 and I am also on mushies and so sick of mashed potatoes and I don't lose weight eating white carbs! I am able to eat egg beaters and today I tried them with some laughing cow garlic and herb cheese melted and it was yummy! I also make some fresh fruit smoothies and they said I could have any caned soup.

lamvmomof4 replied to illinoishusker's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Lori- I was lucky enough that my brother had a much bigger wedding than me and so I got the diffrance and so I used it to get the band. I have to say it was the best 15,500 I have spent! I will keep my fingers crossed you get approved!! Teri- We are neighbors, I am only about 7 miles from Mattoon! I spend a lot of time in Mattoon some weeks. I bet you are very excited to get your band in! Good Luck! -

Dr. Rochibe ( I am sure I did not spell that right) from Clinton did it. I am feeling really good! I went yesterday and I am able to move to mushie foods so I am thrilled! I have some restriction with the band unfilled, but I am ready for it to be a little more. I get to go Oct 9th for my first fill. My weight has kind of stop dropping, but they say that might happen before my next fill. -
I have been reading that thread and it is so true and funny!!

Question for those banded around Aug 28
lamvmomof4 replied to targa's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi Targa! I was banded on the 27th and I still have pain at my port sight. Last night I tried to bend over to pick something up and got a sharp pain it really hurt! I am hoping that next week it will feel much better! -
I am also 1 week out and I am just starting to get hungry and not able to feel full as fast. I find that K20 protein water helps keep the edge off until my next meal.
-
I am so glad you are feeling better! Hope today is going good also!
-
Sorry I am just getting this! I guess I never saw I had mail LOL That would be great to keep in touch!
How are you doing today? I am feeling pretty good and the weight seems to keep comming off so that is always nice! I am having a hard time today with food! I have been doing pretty good and get full after I eat, but now the swelling must be down and I am dying to eat the pice of left over pizza in the fridge which I know I CAN'T do but man I am hungry today! I am thinking that after my daughter wakes we are going to town to do some shopping or something just to get me out of the house!
So are your incisions healing? Mine are iching like crazy!
Hope you have a great day!
