Thanks Willow u made me call my dr office too and I go next mon for another fill.
-
I am feeling the same way right now I had surgery Oct 14th and had my first fill 11/16/09. I was feeling restriction for a while too and also lost 3lbs. Then with the holiday passing I may have gained that back. This is harder then I thought and it's really frustrating.

I have been burping more then ever since a few days after surgery what's up wit that?

Oh now I see I need to eat more Protein I forgot about that I guess the few small chunks of chicken that was in my soup didn't help any. Thanks for the advice. Yeah I got 3cc's monday I guess that's not a lot huh? I have a 10cc band I wonder if people get the fully filled ever. -

neesh posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi all how long did your first fill last? I had chicken and noodles today for lunch at noon and im still full. I had to wait 24 hrs before eating after fill was on liquids. I am still full I can't beleive it and this is what I needed. Im so happy now I also worked out today it was only 10 minutes, but hey it's better then nothing im just getting started. Just wanted to share this since I started off on the wrong path before. -

Yeah it was very hard for me at first I was eating anything while on mushy's I felt bad and like a faluire I thought it was all over for me. Now im on track working out and trying to eat healthier and less. I don't weigh my foods or anything cuz I have no time, but I make sure to eat less and now that I have my fill I can feel it when Im full and it last for a long time. I started out at 349 and lost 22lbs when I went to get my fill I had gained back 6 lbs, but they stated that was ok. I just started my workouts which are only about 15-20 min for now until I work my way up to 30 min 3 times a wk. so hopefully that 6lbs will come off and more to come. All I can say is this time im not giving up and going to keep moving forward it's hard as hell, but gotta do it as I am also in a wedding next yr july so I have to get this weight off me. -
Yeah hopefully when I go in for my fill it will get better for me luckily I have only gained back 4lbs since surgery. As much as I have been eating I would of thought it would be more then that. I do eat whatever I want right now, but not a full meal like I used to so maybe that's why I didn't gain more.

Constipation can I take stool softners yet?
neesh posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Had surgery 3 wks ago can I take stool softners or maybe I should check with clinic right? -
Yeah it is tricky im not used to this either, but yeah my goal for now is 160. This has been a very ruff time for me sticking with mushy's and eating right. I think the pre op liquid diet and liquid diet for 8 days after surgery diet was starving so long I just wanna eat anything I can right now and im messing up big time. I feel like crying and I feel like a failure right now. I am 3 wks out now had surgery 10/14/09 and feeling like I should of had gastric I haven't had a fill yet I have that on the 16th of this month and I hope I haven't messed up my band. Sorry I just wanted to vent a lilttle forget the ticker lol lol.

Has anyone ever cheated while on Liquids?
neesh replied to iNdOe's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have a lot and wish I didn't so don't even go there just try try hard. I don't think anything has happened to me, but like the other person said later on I hope nothing does for me. Yes I cheated and have been grubbing I am now on my 3 wk post op still eating mushy's and just got back on the wagon today and so far so good. I had coffee with splenda for breakfast and creamy soup for lunch. Will have something soft for dinner don't know what yet I am gone keep doing good until my fill on the 16th so hopefully I loose a few lbs when I go in. Please don't cheat I wish I hadn't. -
I can eat about anything right now and lord knows I cannot wait til Nov 16th when I go for my first fill. I think I gained back like 2lbs that I lost out of 22lbs. It is very hard not to eat since i am not done with mushy's. What did you do what did you eat. I think im going to try to eat lots of salads and grilled meat. I also need to get my workout together.

neesh posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi all I was just wondering if any of u were doing weight watchers with your band and if so how is it going. I just got banded on the 14th of oct and im thinking about doing ww and curves as well with my band. What do you all think of this? -

neesh replied to neesh's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Well I wasn't planning on going to any meetings or anything. I was on ww before in the past and still have my books so I was just gonna do it that way. Yeah im sure going to a meeting and saying you had surgery wouldn't be a good idea. -

neesh replied to neesh's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
So did you start WW since your almost at your goal or did you start off with it. I just had surgery 10/13/09 so I don't know what do you think. -
Needing helo on soft food diet.
neesh replied to neesh's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yes I had a cup of soup and im stuffed. The only problem I have been having is I been craving for other real foods and been doing bad I just got back on track yesterday. I had to rewind my thinking and do the right thing. Anyway I went and bought like those cups of ravioli, easy mac, and some baked fish that you can pop in microwave. i got those for lunch becuase the store I went to didn't have any catfish and I love baked catfish. I wanna have that with spinach or salmon anything soft is what my cousin said and she even said to make sure you chew that up well too. -
Hi all im glad to say im back on track with my post op diet. I was messing up pretty bad and I feel so bad about it. I start my soft food diet tomorrow and I am trying to figure out everything that I would be able to eat. I know in my booklet from the clinic it says fish chicken and like mash it with my fork. I was wondering if I can have like canned spinach I just wanna know what all soft foods to eat im confused.
-
Can anyone give me some ideas on what to eat on soft mushy diet.
neesh replied to neesh's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thanks all I went out and bought some of those cups of easy mac and raviloi to have for lunch at work. Also I think im eating too much at a time becuase after I eat I feel nauseated anyone feel like this? -
I am to start soft food tomorrow, but I started today. I had 1 packet of oatmeal for breakfast waited then drank my water. For lunch I had a egg salad sandwhich (toasted) from eddington's today with a half cup of soup. I think I am doing better then what I was. Tonight I will have probably just drink water and crystal light.

how much weight did u loose first month?
neesh replied to lindac80's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Before surgery I lost 16lbs then after I lost another 6lbs. So I lost all together 22lbs pre and post op. I am just waiting for my fill next month and I can't wait. I haven't lost anymore so far becuase I have cheated a lil too. I am back on track though and going grocery my pureed diet is over tomorrow yaay. Then im on soft mushy foods for the next 2 wks we'll see how I do then. -
What happens if you cheat during liquid period?
neesh replied to chelle2380's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You guys are making me want a pickle now lol lol I don't think we can have those just yet though. I have been cheating these past couple days, but not much though. I had some fish yesterday chewed it up really good. This diet is getting on my last nerve, but im hanging in there.
