This is so cool! I was banded June 20th. The best thing I've ever done for myself. I'm down 35Lbs and loving it. Awsome feeling when that shirt you've had in the closet for 2 years finally fits and my pants are sagging in the butt. I feel great. I've had 2 fills now at 2.3cc's. I'm thinkin about going in for another fill. I was nervous to start working out:phanvan and this will be my second week.. sooo much easier 35lbs down when running. Love to hear all your stories. Luvs, :clap2: The new me!

Hi everyone, I'm feeling GReeeeat! Wishing I would hve done this years ago. What a wonderful thing. Got my first fill and I can't believe how easy it was! Soooo Happy.

I was just banded today and having a problem getting rid of what I think are hunger pains? not sure, could be the gassss. but i'm so excited to start this journey.:biggrin1: Any suggestions to figuring out what this pain is. Shantell

Help? My surgery was june 20th 3 days ago i'm having horrible hunger pains, and I feel so week my brain is foggy. is this normal? do i need to be worried? I have an asure and vegetable broth daily do i need to do something different? is this normal or do i need to be scared that something is going wrong with my band? shantel

Kathi, I too have had those feelings come and go. But I remind myself of why I did this, When i researched it and talked to several people who have done it they are so happy and wish they would have done it sooner. I did this because food was out of control for me and I want to live a healthier life. This is the hard part right now we can make it through this. Take a walk and make sure your taking a Vitamin. There is so much support here on this sight. I'm sure others will tell you the same. Cheer up We can do this. Shantel

:clap2: I was banded on June 20th as well. How are you feeling? I'm feeling pretty soar on the port side.:phanvan

Hi Everyone I was just banded June 20th, Some of you say you mix the Vodka with carbinated drinks I was told I will not be able to have that again is there a trick to it? does'nt it make you feel sick or scared of slippage?

Thanks Barbra! I too have been able to sip broth and juice but it takes awhile to trinkle through. How did you put your weight measure on your name? Congrads on your weight loss..

Thanks everyone. I was very nervous and excited. When I first woke up I was in no pain and thought how simple it was, i was feeling pretty well yesterday compared to today have not beeen sleeping so good. I'm a stomach sleeper and I feel my muscles and incisions today. But I'm wxcited for the future.
