    just banded 6-15-09

    Hello! I'm at day 6 and I'm still doing well. I hear this is common though, part of the most difficult time. Head over to the twenties board or the June journey's board, there is a ton of information there and the ladies are fabulous!!!
  2. Start wearing Spanx again??? I wore them before surgery and I'm just wondering how soon you could put them over your incisions w/o harming your incisions?? Thanks!

    How soon do you guys...

    tHANKS FOR THAT!!!
  4. Saw you on the intro board. Just wanted to say Hi and your bathing suit pics are amazing! I was banded 5 days ago. I pics up on my profile as well as on my person website. Keep it!!!

  5. Thanks for the photo comment. Yeah, I dig my underboob as well!

  6. In response to your comment on my tummy pic, I was in pain day 1 of surgery and half of day 2. It slowly gets better everyday and you feel a ton better when you get off the narcotics and out of the haze. I'm doing fabulous but I do have a high pain tolerance.

  7. Hey! Just saw a post of yours on the twenties board. We seem to be around the same weight and have the same goals! I just had my surg 3 days ago. My highest was also 285. My current is 267.5 and my goal is 145. You seem to be doing so great!!!! Check out my page and my website. www.freewebs.com/lizandrk/ Xoxo, Liz

    Did you tell everyone or no?

    Well I am 3 days post op and I have only told my closest family, closest friends, and 2 co-workers. Those 2 co-workers know to keep their mouths shut. I am a pretty open person 24/7 but my weight is one thing I'm private about. So I don't need bosses or hott guys knowing my weight issues or that I've had surgery. maybe after I've lost a lot of weight I will feel different, we'll see.

    I heard through a friend that the staff didn't treat people very well. that's all. You must live close to me b/c that hospital is only like 10 miles from my house. haha! I had my done at Scottsdale Healthcare Hospital.

    Soup, anybody???

    Ok so I'm having my surgery in 10 days. I've been thinking alot about what to do about lunch at work without letting ppl knwo my business and see me measuring stuff. So the idea of Soup just hit me! does anybody know a recipe of a soup that includes Protein, good fat, and veggies?? I picture making a huge pot, measuring out my 1 cup in the morning, and just heating up at work.
  15. Sorry, I haven't been on in a few days. How are solids going for you?

  16. I do have a "plan" for exercise. However b/c I was in sports as a teen I think my goals are too aggressive. At the hosp my exercise specialist said set super small goals that seem laughable. Then when accomplished you can still be just as proud of yourself. So I do have a YMCa membership, a great neighborhood to walk in, and a park to play soccer in w/ my kids. So I figure those are the things I will start with. After I lose 40-50 lbs I want to take up a yoga class.

  17. thanks! Has anyone told you how much you could or should be losing monthly??? No-one said anything at all my appts.

  18. Well goodluck. I would imagine the first week would be the most struggle. My Monday after will be when I get to start solid food. I hope everything is going well for you!!!
