    down and counting

    You are an inspiration to us on our way. You look great. How long did it take you to get down 41 lbs?
  6. Cardio at this time. I go to the gym 5-6 times per week and do about 35 to 45 mins of eliptical and treadmill. I am on my way as I didn't go yesterday. I had a port revision 5 weeks after my original surgery, so I am not cleared for abs and weights yet. Another 2-3 weeks and I can start toning, etc..

  7. I was banded in Houston, how about yourself?

  8. All good. I did have a little hicup, my port flipped and had to have a 2nd surgery (Port Revision). It's not easy for the first few days or so, but it gets better. No regrets here. 29 lbs down and more to come!

    Day at the beach..

    What an inspiration
  10. Finally, day 8 (1 week post op) I'm finally feeling almost 100% like myself! I was getting worried. I guess since I've started eating thicker liquids, like cream of mushroom and soups I am getting some more vitamins into my body. I hope I continue to improve every day, because I was starting to feel some regrets.

    I Want My Band Removed Now!!!!!

    Well for me, up to yesterday I felt that I probably regreted it. I was banded 2-18-09, and I think being on the liquid diet was what hit me the hardest. I was starving which has made me very weak. I am much better today, and am more excited about the decision I made. I know however, it will take a few months for me to get adjusted and hope that those days get here soon.

    Is this hunger normal?

    Well, I was banded 2-18-09, and I am still hungry. I can start eating cream of mushroom soup, etc.. tomorrow, so I can't wait!!! I also have been battling hunger pains, but I haven't tried anything I shouldn't due to the fear of being in pain.
  13. Well I was banded on 2-18-09 and today is my first day back to work. I am sooo weak, that I can barely stand it. I'm sick of drinking protein shakes and liquids all day! I"m sure once I step up to thicker liquids in a few days, I'll feel better, but like you my brain just isn't functioning. I feel sick. I also had this sharp pain (which I also thought was the port) on my left side right below my ribs, but it is gone now, probably just air.
