Perfect10in 2010

Thanks for your advice I can't wait to be at that sweet spot stage.

Hi Camille saw one of your post on another bandsters page. Wanted to see how things have been going for you. Im newly banded 1/12/2010 and things are going slow for me wanted to know if you have any tips/advice. Thanks

Thanks so much for your post they were very helpful. I was banded 1/12/10 Im so in need of a fill (restriction) I too started regular food earlier than advised but I have no problems...I try to watch the amount but no pbing or anything like that. I get my fill on 2/10 I can't wait. How are you doing. So far Im only down 10lbs because of the food Im eating Im sure.

Hi Barb I see we were banded on the same day. 1/12...Im so in need of a feel hunger pains are shooting like crazy how about you. I lost 13lbs first two weeks wen to mushies now only down 10

8 more days til fill I can't wait. Hope you are doing well. Yes we will get through this.

Thanks! Im in the mushy/(regular food phase every once in awhile). I go for my first fill on 2/10 I can't wait hope he gives me enough to feel full soon but not to the point where im puking.

It's going slow . I can't wait for a fill. I have absolutely no restriction. And lbs are slowly creeping back up. Any advice? I go for my first fill on 2/10.

No but I have been cheating I must admit and that's prob why so Im going walking in the morning. I put on 2lbs it's so depressing.

Hey Skip, I think I have somewhat good news for us (which we should already know) first month is for healing I found a post (cut paste in the search field- How much Weight did you lose in the first month? Do not include pre op weightloss) After reading other bandsters post I think what we are experiencing is common. By the way I called my Dr today and begged for an earlier date for a fill and he said no, oh well at least I tried lol. He said first month is for healing.

Did you say cravings? Im beyond cravings lol bad stuff too I can't wait to get a fill before temptation takes over. Well I haven't really blended anything up I just try to chew longer I have no problems with that the only thing Is Im not getting full after 1/2 cup or full cup maybe 2-3 cups lol. Well My lbs are still lingering around hope to lose more soon. How much do you have to go to get under 300

Hey Skip I feel you Im too nervous to get on the scale after I saw a couple pounds added back on. I can't wait to get a fill and feel full ....No good recipes just mash potatoes, spaghetti with wheat pasta ground turkey meat(probably shouldn't be eating that) and soups. Let me know what you find out. Are you getting full after only 1/2 cup. I can eat way more than that it's scary and to know I have some fluid in my band hmmm I'm gonna have to tell the Dr. to load me up when he fills my band. lol
