I actually gained a few pounds in the last week since being banded. I think its from all the liquids they put in the IV. I also think that our bodies are in shock right now and don't really know what to do. I think the weight loss will start in a few weeks. Good luck.

I was banded 1 week ago and think Janet covered it all. My husband stayed home with me for a few days and I loved the TLC. Chap Stick was also a help. Good luck on your journey - you'll do great!

Oh thank you all so much for your well wishes and words of wisdom. Without all your posts I wouldn't have made this life changing decision. Thanks to all you guys.

All done. I was banded on Monday and am just beginning to feel good enough to post. Thank God for my unbeleiveable husband who has been taking really good care of me. Thanks to all who wished me well. I'll post again soon.

Hello Dee, I just wanted to give you a quick update. I was banded on Monday and recovering well. How have you been?
-
Wow, thanks for sharing your amazing weight loss. I was banded on Monday and am hoping to use my band well. Would you say that you, aside from the pasta, eat what you want with the focus on protein in about 1/2 cup portions before you find yourself full? Any input would be helpful.

Thanks Rubio. I am feeling so much better today, I even went for a walk on the boardwalk with my husband today.

That soup sounds awesome - I'll keep it in mind for my hungry times after I'm banded on Monday. I noticed an older post of yours about food tracking. I use myfitnesspal. It works for me - check it out.

Sylvia, Welcome back and thanks for sharing. I am also a food addict and am hoping that I will be able to keep my addiction in mind while using the band as a tool. We will soon see as I am going to be banded next Monday. Thank you for sharing and perhaps we could get on track to healthy eating with the band together. I wish you luck - wish me luck too!!!! -
You and your words are so inspirational that I am going to print this and have it to refer to when I need words of encouragement. Thank you so much from a soon to be banded sister.

New beginnings and more discipline

Andrea that is awesome. I am getting banded on Monday and wonder. Will I be able to eat every day foods just in smaller portions? Is that what you are doing because your loss is excellent and I thought that is how the band is supposed to work - you eat what you did before but you get fuller quicker because of the restriction. Please advise me as I am confused. -
Your doing so well with your weight loss. I could use some advice from you. I have read many different blogs and many people are not eating "regular" food. I see that you are eating about 1/2 cup of food. Are you eating regular type foods but in smaller amounts? You are doing so well I was wondering if you could give me some advice. Thanks. I am going to be banded next Monday.

Your story sounds so much like mine, except that I'm 20 years older than you. I am so happy that you are making this decision while your young and wish you the best of luck on your journey.
-
You are doing Great!!!!! Congratulations I know your gonna kick some butt.

I love my sil s and bil s as well. In fact I like them so much that I have excused myself from all family functions on "that side". I refuse to be around people who belittle me or make me feel unwelcome and if they are related to my husband it includes them. I am so sorry you had to endure this crap. Keep your chin up you are so much better than them. Even when your ass is small people like that will find something else to comment on, even if they have to make it up. Keep up the good work and think positive thoughts.
