  1. mattsmom1 your post is too funny i wondered about why i have all this built up energy i feel like i could build a house instead of clean one. i went back to work the 29th and my staff were telling me slow down its like i was superwoman. i hope the energy lasts... i get staples out tomorrow morning and get to ask all my questions i am excited i lost 9lbs so far. i am concerned about the eating mostly. thats my big concern i have ate grits for Breakfast last two days, 2 Protein drinks and for supper an omelette. i eat but after 45min to an hour my stomach begins growling loud like a bear its embarassing. my doc said no drinking 30min before or after each meal but honestly its soooo hard not to drink but im sticking to it Water and no cal milo tea have sustained me. im really wondering what the first fill will be like though when did your doc say you could do first one? mine said 6 weeks keep in touch its nice to have someone going through it you can talk to and have a happy new year
  2. i am not nor never would tell anyone what to eat or not please read my post again everyone here has chosen a doctor to whom all their questions and answers should be directed. i never suggested that anyone should eat "chicken tenders" i just told what my doc approved and listed it life is full of choices i choose my doctor and he chooses to be a little more free with the mushy stage.
  3. hi, i had surger 12/22/08 so far a breeze!!! had a little gas pain left shoulder but i believe getting up and moving worked it out quicker (my opinion) never took a pain pill since day of surgery and feeling really good. my doc said to chew chew chew. so far i have had refried beans, grits, eggs, cream of mushroom soup and all is well i try to let my stomach tell me when to stop. but i still feel like i'm eating way too much. my stomach growls loud all the time. i have lost 9lbs. but i still feel hungry. i drink my protein drink and try to drink unsweetened tea or water in between but its really hard. probally the hardest thing i face is not drinking with meals good lord this is killer. i have to work on this one. i get staples out on wednesday and hopefully all the questions i have will be answered i have a list. like to keep in touch and see how we progress

    Banded on Tuesday

    i had the surgery on dec. 22nd only took pain meds twice on the 24th early morning and right before our family christmas party. right after surgery and the following day i did feel those awful gas pains my doc says the air they blow in stomach gets stuck under the clavical bone ( in my case it did, it was horrible) and its trapped there till it works its way out after that subsided i was just a little sore. kinda felt alot better just moving around wondering what all of you are eating? my doc said liquids were hard to stay on and try eating soft things chewed really really well as soon as i thought i could.
