BklynPenny 51 Posted July 22, 2013 Hi BklynPenny. I was curious about Methodist Hospital (I live right there). Who did you use? And how do you feel? Happy you went there? Jim your zip gave it away. Lol My Dr.'s name is Paul Thodiyil. He has an office in Bay Ridge & does the surgery at Methodists. I was banded on 7/10/13 n feeling pretty awesome. Totally happy I went there. Are u banded??

Sent from my SAMSUNG GALAXY S3 using LapBandTalk[/quote'] Hi BklynPenny! Honestly I feel great! Except yesterday my daughter tried to climb her way out of a shopping cart and I caught her so today I am a little sore. I really don't have any more pain just some soreness by my port. I started puréed food on Wednesday and so far so good. I only eat about a 1/2 cup of food once a day and they rest of the day I drink Protein shakes and Water. As of last week I was down 24lbs at my post op appt (including whatever I lost during pre op diet) I won't buy a scale cause I think I would obsessively weigh myself lol. How are you feeling? Have you started eating yet? I live near SIUH. Where on the island does your sister live? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
