  1. I had 6.6 cc in a 14 cc band. Everything so far so good.

  2. Great progress very encouraging.

  3. I have my first fill tomorrow too. I hope that you will have success. I know I am looking forward to the next step.

  4. I was banded on April 28th and since I started my preop diet have lost a total of 31 lbs. I get my first fill on June 8th and am ready for it. I really feel no restriction at all right now but am making every effort to eat sensibly. I have been doing more physical work every day and am trying to get on an excercise program. Good luck with your fill.
  5. I know what you mean, I was banded on April 28th and after moving to mushies I have no appetite either. I do try to stay on a schedule with eating though. I am looking forward to my first fill.
  6. Really good thank you. I am still looking forward to my first fill, but have lost over 30 lbs since preop. How are things with you?

    So. Tired.

    I was banded on April 28th and am just now starting to feel better. I work out of the house too and I have limited my outside travel, I think the post op diet is quite tough to maintain and I know I have had headaches almost everyday till yesterday. Ready for some variety, stay active good luck.
  8. Sounds like your on your way to being back on track. I had an MRI a week before my surgery for a pinched nerve still waiting on results, hopefully next week. I'm really bored with the post op selections so I just don't eat or drink, I am ready for some variety and looking forward to working out too.

  9. Way ready for the second stage of this process the post op diet is getting old fast. Feeling better every day now and down 30 lbs since preop. How are things going with your journey?

  10. very well thank you

  11. Just post op.

  12. I know what you mean. I lost 15 lbs preop, lost another 14 since surgery on the 28th and noticed I was up 3lbs this am. I have my postop visit on the 12th and don't get a fill until? I have not started excercising yet and still get a little tired during the day. I am way over the post op liquid thing too, ready for some variety.

  13. Just sayin hi, had surgery, to date with preop diet I have lost 29lbs. Hope you are doing well.

  14. Surgery went well, had a hernia repair too. Just still trying to get back in the groove of things. The post op diet is so limitting. Real food just seems so far off. I work out of the house so recovery has been pretty good. Walking to get over this bloated feeling.

  15. I have to follow the post op diet for 16 days then I can progress to mushies. Just looking for some variety in the day to day.

  16. I was banded on the 28th too. And still very bloated feeling. I have been walking and taking gasx but still no real relief. My weight is down 5 lbs since surgery. Overall 24 lbs since preop.
  17. Thanks for the heads up on the website. Went there and got some recipies. I have been walking quite a bit but got a little lightheaded today (in the 90s down here), overall down 24 lbs and very happy about that. No turning back now.

  18. How are things going, I could use a drink too!

  19. Got banded on the 28th by Dr Jessee just way over the post op diet. Ready for some variety now. Good luck.

  20. I was banded this past wed the 28th still feeling bloated and tired of the post op diet but down 20 lbs overall.

  21. Down 20 lbs now, just very bloated feeling, man I want some real food, this protein shake thing has gotten a little old. I hope this phase will end soon.

  22. I was banded yesterday too, outpatient. Very little pain, but I am taking my meds anyway. I have had the hickups quite often since surgery which is not pleasent. Other than that just hungry for something different. Best of luck in your progress.
  23. Have my surgery date soon, lost my preop weight and am ready to go. Anyone else on this date?

    I got banded today about 11:00 am. My experience was great! Got to the hospital about 30 min before surgery. They took me back and got ready, pre op prep about 1 hour. Left the hospital around 2:00 pm. Couple of naps, walking around, and following post op menu. Hope your experience is as good.
  25. Finally got banded today, no problems, great experience with Dr and staff. Walking, even sending some work related emails. Hungry though, eating some sugar free jello and popsicles. Thanks again for your support.
