hello, I am so sorry to hear about your experience. I have been told that it is a bonus to loose weight prior to a fill. Keep on doing what you have been doing... just a thought coming from an outsider... are you eating your protein as prescribed and veggies, staying away from the carbs? eating 3 meals plus the snacks? are you measuring out your protien portions? just a few thoughts to keep in mind. Please do not be discouraged, this is an ongoing learning process.. this is not an overnight fix. I hope all goes well for you

hello, thanks for asking.. I am 2 weeks out and just started on the soft food phase... I am somewhat hesitant with it, but will be going shopping tomorrow. I just hope I can keep my weight loss steady.. that is my prayer. I have been walking on the treadmill since the the first week, and now he cleared to exercise fully. so i have incorporated the eliptical trainer yesterday. so that is about it.
How are you doing?

September 2009 Band Date
ms_Hart37 replied to ashleysara's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
good morning, I was also banded 9/1/09 and it has been ok.. for the most part.. I also work night shifts, but will not start back on those till next week sometime. I do go back to days on Thurs. I have to be cleared by our occ. health and was placed on 10lb weight restriction till the middle of next week. So, my supervisor put me on her version of admin. duty ( basicly doing some of her paperwork). I am trying to figure out, hunger versus generalized rumbling.... also I did learn the hard way, if it says decaff, use only decaff.. I got sick on sat. did not leave the house at all. I had a recipie mix for my protein shakes and used the wrng coffee.. :mad: I am growning tired of the shakes, but i have not had to repeat the same one two times in a row.. i am ready to chew something of substance.. well, tell me how you are doing take care -
congrats... the whey protein shakes are what are mostly prescribed, but talk to your office about how many grams thay wish for you to have per day.. i hav heard from 60-90 per day. mine prefers us to get up to 90..

Hello everyone, I was banded on Tues. I feel pretty good. I was able to take a walk on Wed. and stopped taking pain meds on yesterday. This morning I went for a walk medium speed for 15min. I am in some pain, but mostly soreness at the port site and that gassy pain in my left shoulder and upper chest. I am trying to master my dietary requirements... I was told to first think of hydration and then my goal is 90grams of protien a day. well here is my question- How many calories a day and total amount of carbs per day? If anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated :smile2:
