ok.. so i had surgery 2/12, and since then i've lost 38 pounds... at first i was starving!!!! and now there are days where i can eat alot...and some days where i can only have a few bites.. is that normal??????? :sad: tomarrow i get my first fill.. i personally think my doctor made me wait a while.. its almost been two months and no fill until tomarrow. i only threw up once after eating some pasta--and its weird because mac n cheese and mashed potatoes is one of the only things i can tolerate!!! HELP?!?!?!?!? :thumbup: Any suggestions on what i can eat or how to eat?? i may be eating too fast.. but its hard i used to finish a meal in 5 minutes.. i try atleast to take 10 min for a meal... Thanks in advance for your help xoxoxo

i'm new and trying to get familiar with the site. :smile: i just want to say that this is the best site!!!!!! love the info!!! SURGERY DATE 2/12/09 THANKS EVERYONE!!!!!!

hey jayna79 its been almost two months and i'm down 38 pounds.. i feel great, but everyday is a lesson learned lol i wish you very much luck in your surgery... i dont regret it...

hi i was banded 2/12 and besides the gas and weird pressure pain... i guess i'm ok.. i was put on a liquid diet and i follow up with my doctor on wednesday.. how long does the pain stay? i only took a week off from work.. i'm hoping i'll be ok.

in my opinion go for the lapband!!! it's safer... at the end of the day it choice is yours!! good luck!!! and ALWAYS do your research!! i'm having surgery tomarrow (fingers crossed)..

hey Jayna79.. my doctor made me a tentative apt which means you can cancel at any time.. it was done on my first visit.. i already had spoken to my pcp about the lapband.. and i went for most of the test. Always do your research, and pick a doctor that is highly recommended. Remember, you are putting your life in his hands

wooohooo!!!! congrats ! meeeeee tooooo my surgery is tomarrow.... i'm getting the jitters...

everyone here is seriously awsome!!! thanks for the support :crying: i'm happy to join the "feb foxes" lol. i will keep everyone posted i must say i am really nervous. i've been on the Optifast diet and lost 15 pounds. i cant wait to start my new life.. xoxoxoxo
