October bandsters

[mwsing 6]

Me too I can't eat as much but I can eat ! I tend to get super hungry and wolf it down .

I was banded on the second and I usually stop before even a half a cup of food. The mushy stage has been odd for me though, and I'm finding myself really not enjoying that much. I'm trying really, really hard to not drink 30 mins. before and 1 hour after meals, but it's sooooo hard. These last couple of times I managed to wait though.

My doctor said a half hour before our half hour after... I was banded a week ago today and I'm having problems getting my Water in cause I'm so full after a cup of food the last thing I'm thinking about is consuming liquids. I definitely need to drink more water. I don't need any kidney stones making things worse!

My pre-op is today! Wish me luck for signing the final paperwork and weight in.

Good Luck! the best advice I have for you after surgery is to get a heating pad and walk, walk, walk to move that gas out.

Me too...I am trying so hard not to eat to fast but since the food seems to go down easily I wind up eating faster than I should.

I worried about that too. I was dehydrated the whole first week, but finally I was able to drink more. I hope nothing bad happened, but I'm feeling fine now, I think.

Burping and Coughing really are getting to me today! I know that this is post op day 1 but I had 3v good burps today that made me want to curl up in a ball.

I totally know the feeling but it will pass. I was banded last Friday and today is the first time that I don't feel crazy gassiness. Hang in there sista
