Skyvic 226 Posted May 20, 2012 I think the first month is always the roughest. You go through so many emotions, I had the blues that sense off loss. I agree that this is the month to heal your body, rest, take it slow and let your body adjust to your new stomach and the incisions have to heal as well. Get plenty of hydration. Take this time to look up recipes for lapband, high Protein Shake recipes, I didn't realize in the beginning, I thought I had to be losing the week I was out of surgery...the real weight loss begins a month to even the second year!!!! Hang in there it will all come together in the big picture! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
