  1. I just started first cycle since being banded on june 5th 2010 and it has been so EXTREMELY painful. I soent the entire a night in pain and spent the day in bed with a heating pad and went through a ton of Midol with NO relief. My bleeding is very heavy and I have even passed a few small clots. :thumbup: I TRULY hope this is not something that is going to happen every month now that I am banded. I am just thankful that this happened on a Saturday and not on a workday.
  2. I know that we should keeo meals to 4 oz in order to keep the pouch from stretching. Does this apply to liquids and soups etc???
  3. Mushies. I am terrified to try solids!
  4. I am 3 weeks post op.
  5. Thanks for the reply! I am eating lots of tomato soup and was worried about taking in more than 4 oz of it at a time but then wondered if that only applied to whole foods. Now I know:)
  6. I am on full liquids moving into mushies. 2 1/2 weeks post op now. I got so tired of the bland stuff I was eating and then I started ordering soup to go from different places. Egg drop soup got old fast from the local Chinese place and then i tried Applebees and WOW...they have awesome soups! The Tomato Basil Soup is heavenly and so is the Broccoli Cheese(the broccoli is super soft) and there garlic mashed potatos are very yummy as well! This has saved me!:thumbup:

  9. I had my surgery on June 5th and I am still dealing with some fatigue. I increased my protein to 60 grams per day and it has helped.
  10. As I sit here sipping on my warm chicken broth I am well into my 4th day post-op. I had surgery in Mexcio and was pleased with my experience. I am doing ok but still dealing with major gas pains. I am ready for this phase to end.

    I was not happy with even talking on the phone with them so i did some research and I am going to use Fill Centers USA. They have a location in Annapolis MD
  12. I am 5 days out and hungry!!!! This is freaking me out. I did not expect to feel hunger this soon after surgery. I am having bad headaches and fatigue. WHAT DO I DO about this???
  13. I havent had any meal replacements at all only clear liquids. I finally just made myself a choco protein shake with some berry yogurt thrown in. I hope this does the trick!
  14. I had surgery in Mexico and had a good experience but now I am trying to find a doctor to do my fills and or follow up appointments and I can not find anyone willing to do it because I had my surgery in Mexico. Has anyone else experienced this problem?
