Hello Apples....I have been banded 4 weeks tomorrow. I am due to get my first fill on Sept 23, 2010. I have lost 10 pounds from my surgery date until now. I have not lost a pound in the last 4 days. I am eating my protein and very small meals. I walk maybe 2 or 3 days a week...30 minutes. Will I really start losing weight after my fill when I am restricted? I just feel like I should be losing at least a 1 a week...but I am not. Please help. Thanks

Successful Daughter Visit; Back to Monday!!!
Spouse of T commented on sandradee0124's blog entry in Blog 89559
Yea for you!!!! Keep it up! -
Glad to hear things are going!!!! I am doing well. It's gets easier as the days go by. You get use to eating less. I have my first fill on Sept 23....looking forward to that. From what I understand that is when the real weightloss happens..eventhough I am losing very well. Hang in there.

Good evening, haven't heard from you....just wanted to know how you are doing? Let me know if you have the surgery and if you are ok? Thinking of you!

Keep pressing forward. It does get better with time. Hope all is well with you on this journey.

Day 15 Post-op - Serious band negativity.
Spouse of T commented on something_for_gabby's blog entry in Blog 99309
My first few weeks...I felt "sad" and also felt why did I do this? You will go over this period. You really will one day feel better...it does take time. Be patience with yourself. -

Spouse of T commented on tommygunn49's blog entry in Blog 94814
You will do well....be encouraged!!! Take it a step at a time. -
Still going strong, even with no loss for 2 weeks!
Spouse of T commented on Seanamw's blog entry in Blog 97014
Good for you. Stay encouraged and keep focused!!! You will begin to see some lost. -
I hope God does a miracle and turn that around for you...if that is His will. This morning while I was driving to work I felt a tug at my spirit and this question in my heart...Are you having a hard time seeing past what you see right now? I am right there but I know that God is bigger than what I am seeing right now. I want to encourage you this morning...look past what you are seeing. Let God work out the situation for you. If the surgery is the way He wants you to go...than it shall be (without the bill), if this is not what He has for you at this time....don't be discouraged. He will direct you how to get the weight off. I am with you each step of the way. You can e-mail me anytime and we will encourage each other. Always remember, God knows what is best for us before we know it. Hope your day is filled with peace and not worry.
Be encouraged!!!!

You really did encourage me with your words. I am glad in a world of confusing and heartache...that someone still knows that it is only God that can bring us through. Yes, I would like to have you as a friend. Take it a day at a time. Be encouraged!!!!

So many questions about Lap Banding
Spouse of T commented on Mscaramel38's blog entry in Pre Op Lap Bander
Hello and I am glad you are wanting to make an inform decision. As Giby97 said...you should try and do the lap band diet first. To be honest with you right after I had my lap band surgery...I was sad and maybe a little depressed. I think because I really knew I could no longer eat the way I use to. It was like losing a close companion. Would I do it all over again...yes I would. However, I would have tried the lap band diet to get an idea of the direction I was going to have to go. It is a tool....It won't stop you from eating...you are going to have to learn to do that with each step. But, it will be a tool to guide you. I am by no means trying to discourage you...I just really want you to take your time in making this decision. Also, you should go to a support group from your doctors office....you will hear people talk about their experience. I am grateful for this site...It has helped me a lot. In whatever decision you make....you have people here willing to walk with you. Be encouraged. -
Very well said and expressed!!!! Thank you Jesus for your healing POWER!!!!
-
SbuggleBear...good for you. Yes, you are right....we God all things are possible. Keep trusting Him and He will see you thru. You are doing right to change those habits now....that will help once you have the surgery. There can be a sadness of losing the ability to eat the way you are use to and if you start cutting things now...you might not feel as sad. Please keep us posted as to what is happening. Be encouraged.

No Results, No Success
Spouse of T replied to Ravyn's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Stay encouraged. Have you ever ran a race and looked to your left and looked to your right and said...it the person to my left and to my right can continue to run...then so can I. We are here all running this race with you! YOU ARE NOT ALONE!!! We have to search deep within ourselves and find the strength not to give into our food call. You have it in you to do better...you just have to pull that out of you. No, it's not easy but you can do it. I believe you can do it...but you must believe you can do it!!! Don't faint today, don't give up. Find another doctor if you must but put it into every fiber of your being that you are moving forward!!!!!! You are in my thoughts...let us all do this a day at a time....TOGETHER!!!!!! -
Keep up the good work!!!!!

If You've Never Had a Fill can you...
Spouse of T replied to kentx05's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Kentx...Are you doing better with eating the right things? I hope you did take into consideration what others said about sticking with liquids and mushy food until your doctor progressess you. We all here know that it is hard to not want to go back to those "old" habits....but just as you, we are all pressing through those feelings and emotions and doing what we need to do to get better about what we eat. You stay encouraged!!!!!:smile::biggrin: -
It will come off as you go to bathroom. Be encouraged...it's the beginning of your journey.

Pray speedy recovery and take it a day at a time.

Turn around....after having the surgery my husband has taken a turn. He is really supportive and seems to be more relaxed then before. I see him looking about me in a different light....I think he really likes what he sees. Slowly but surely he is getting on board with this.
