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.

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.

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

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

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

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.

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.

Great progress, having surgery wed and its great to see progress like this.

Great progress, I am having surgery Wed and seeing pics like this really is encouraging.

Had my preop yesterday, lost 15 lbs trying not to think about day of surgery but, pretty nervous too. Hope that everything goes well and we can get to the next stage of this.

Just to follow up had my preop today lost 15lbs. Surgery on Wed. Have a good weekend.

How are you doing? I have my preop weigh in tomorrow. I've been able to lose 13 lbs so far, Dr. wanted me to lose 8 so I feel pretty good about that just ready for the rest to be over.

Have you been banded this month yet? I am scheduled on the 28th?

Thanks for the message. I wish you the best. How are you doing on your preop?

I get banded on the 28th with Dr Jessee, how did things go?

Great progress & photos very encouraging to me. I get banded on April 28th.

You are welcome. How is your confidence now?

Thanks so much. I have already lost 10 pounds since last Wed on preop diet and have my preop weigh in on this Friday. My Dr only wanted me to lose 8 but I am hoping to have 15 off by weigh in. I have a pinched nerve in my neck right now which has really sidelined my physical activity. I have very little range of motion or movement which is frustrating because I would love to be working out too. I'm seeing a Nureologist for this but don't know if they will be able to address it by my surgery date. He gave me Vicadin for pain but, it really does not seem to help.

Did you walk or bike for your cardio workouts? How much did you lose right after surgery and your first fill?

Wow, have you told any of your co workers or are you gonna surprise them?

How's it going. Just wanted to thank you for putting me on your list and wishing you well through the process.

Still trying to figure this website out. I started my preop this past week and lost the 8 lbs I needed to lose before surgery. I hope to lose a few more before surgery and am committed to do so. I am still quite nervous about the

actual procedure even though my Dr and her staff are wonderful. Since I am self pay this whole process has taken me less than a month to get a date for surgery. How did your process go?

On the 28th of this month.

I get banded on the 28th

The Oasis is where Garth Brooks wrote his song "Friends in low places".

I know that was a great movie and I was trying to figure out what pictures to post so I thought that was the best one.
