I Did It

Hi everybody...........

Tomorrow it will be a week that I got banded. It took months to make the decision.........

I used Dr Collier in Conroe Texas - everything went smooth, except the bloating feeling was a killer. It is finally starting to subside - that was pretty uncomfortable.

I do have to say I can't wait to chew something.........I'm not hungry of course, but miss that chewing factor. Does that every go away?

Looking forward to getting to know ya'all better.......

Glad you're here!

I am right there with you Mary. I am a week and a half out and can't wait to chew something. I have heard of a few people that chew something and then spit it out, but I am afraid that I will swallow it by instinct. I will just wait my turn. It is coming soon enough. Ok I don't really think that, but I can wait. lol

Hang in there. It will be here before we know it.

Congratulations on you banding! Yes, that bloated feeling was miserable.... I unfortunately also looked 6 months pregnant with it, lol!!! You will be back to 100% and eating solids before you know it, hang in there.

Tomorrow is one week out for me too! Halloween Banding. I agree on the bloating - no fun! It was hard watching the football game on Sunday at a sports bar drinking iced tea and "eating" the liquid portion only of my Soup, with all of the appetizers floating around! It will be worth it though. I am amazed at how relatively easy the recovery has been. I am starting to tell a few more people too. Thanks for your post and good luck to you!! We'll be so ready for the soft foods together.
