Parvathi 2 Posted November 17, 2006 Hey Kelley - Welcome to LBT and congratulations on your new band. Making it through the liquid stage can be rough! Feeling a bit hungrier though is normal, as the swelling in your stomach from surgery has probably now gone down. If you have any questions, feel free to ask away. That's what we're all here for Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Devana 0 Posted November 17, 2006 Welcome Kelley and congratulations on your banding! You might want to find the November bandsters thread somewhere here, too, as there will be others who were banded around the same time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beachgirl 2 Posted November 17, 2006 Hello and welcome Kelly, I hope everything is going well for you and yes from what I went through it is very normal. You need to just concentrate on healing and not worry at all about how much you can eat for now. It will all come in time and once you get good restriction it will not at all be a problem. Just wanted to say hi and congrats. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kjojojr 0 Posted December 17, 2006 Hi Kelley, Congrats on the band. I was banded on Nov. 10 06. My Name is Kelley too, I'm from Calif. but i had my surgery in Mexico. I get my first fill on 12/22'06. I am eating practically anything i want right now. I am staying away from hard foods like chips and steak. I can't wait to start losing. Remember it is a slow process but well worth it .Take Care, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
