    Time to Get Back On Track

    You can do it, Aurelia!! What kind of exercise are you getting when you do exercise? My issue is I am starving when I get home from the gym and I am eating in response. I haven't had any fills yet.

    Hi Aurelia... just to update you the drain and IV are out and I have started working out at the Y. So far I did 4 days last week, with one day off and started up again this week. I am hoping to make this my normal routine. How are you doing since your fill? My friend who had surgery the same day as us has lost 10 lbs in 2 weeks and is having trouble tolerating solids. Like you, she also has 4 ccs in her band. It looks like they will not have to remove the port. The infection seems to have subsided, I have 2 more days of oral antibiotics. My 1st fill is scheduled for May 26th. Karen

    Hi Sorry I haven't been here in a while... I got an infection and was readmitted to the hospital 1 week ago. I am now on IV antibiotics twice a day and have a drain coming out my side. They may have to remove the port, but leave the band. How are you?

    Thanks for the guidance on the ticker. I felt foolish not being able to figure that out.

    I am glad you are starting to feel better. I think I will be on full liquids until I have the first dietician group meeting, then I think she will advance us to mushie foods. Full liquids definitely feel like a treat!

    I am sorry that you've been having hunger and gas pains. Do you think the pain might be partly due to your hiatal hernia repair? I hope your f/u appt goes well tomorrow and you start to feel better. I had all the symptoms you described this past weekend but they started feeling better by Sunday night. My appt went fine today. I am now on full liquids which is nicer than the clears. I have a group diet meeting next Wednesday. Let me know how things go for you! Good luck. Karen:smile2:

    I was also banded March 18th. I am feeling well. No pain meds since the day I left the hospital. I have my first post-op visit tomorrow. I am still on Clear liquids and I imagine I will be advanced to full liquids tomorrow. Have you found any challenges yet? I agree with walking as early and as much as possible. Congrats! P.S. How do you get the ticker to appear on your profile?
