Thank goodness i am not alone I was banded on 9-21 and I am on the full liquids and I was told it is higher cal foods but when stepped on the scale and gained 2 lbs I was so bummed. I was not going to ask my doc if it was normal just in case it is not and have him think i was eatting the wrong things witch i have not been.

This is only my story I am 5 days out was banded on 9-21 and I just got back from a 2 mile walk. get tired a bit but could go back to work if i wanted to with no trouble and it is not a desk job. So I would have no trouble going to court and all. Mary

I just got banded and wanted to know if there was others in my area?

I was banded on 9-21 so sore right now had no idea it would hurt this bad. I really wish i could get this gas pain to go away. I think i will know this is worth it when i see the weight loss. one of my incisions i think is real big will have to ask my doc about that. I know this stage will pass and all will be well. Mary:sad:

Oh my goodness I just got a call from my Dr. and my surgry has been moved up to TOMORROW at 6 am so my band date is now Sept 21 I am really excited now.:thumbup:

I go tomorrow for the pre-op testing and monday for the last visit with Dr. Hall then surgery on 9-22 i am starting to really get excited and a bit scared. I got called today that it was a go and I need to have this done ASAP.

Dont feel bad pick up and get back on the road to a better life, we all have days when this will happen and you know what the docs know we are not perfect. Mary

Ok i called a friend that just had this done and she said to do the shakes with low fat milk and not Water ( i was using water) I did and they are better. is there low fat ice cream LOL just kidding i am felling better today. I was so down yesterday. Mary

I got my date i am doing the liquid diet now SHOOT ME please. Mary

The doc lied said the shakes would help with the hunger, i have never been this hungry on any diet i have been on. Mary:mad2:

help i started my liquid diet and i am not sure i can do this for one week.

I have my band on 9-22 and today if the official day of start the pre-op diet. Just had my shake for Breakfast. I have been doing 2 shakes and a healthy supper for 4 days and lost doing that ( had to lose 10 more lbs before surgery). this is going to be hard as my husband is eating real food and I cant but i have a goal and I will make it. No one said diets where easy and i know I will have a better life for this. Mary
