It's now April 7th--6:05 PM and I am post Lap band as of March 28th. I am finding out the hard way to on schedule. But I am doing ok. My port site is the only place that seems to hurt more than the rest. Yes at about 10:30 am--March 28th--I went in for the banding.

There is a funny feeling to eating now. You all were correct--my tastes have changed. I can now have lunch for $1.19 at wendy's. Their chili is pretty good--lots of juice and nice soft Beans. Fits perfect with my mush diet. I tried to cheat and brought into my wanting a piece of ham---trust me--I was a comode God within 5 minutes of eating it. Just a small amout--maybe 2 ozs... That's happened 2 times in 8 days. Trust me--I am not up to that anymore.

I started my walking 4 days ago....Funny I did good for the first three days. My 4th day felt like I was out of gas. So I just used light exercises on the leg machine--since i did drive to the gym. Back on track as of Monday again.

My next appointment for a fill---April 18th...My has time been flying by. Do I feel hungry? Yes---just a little. No more binge hunger---"Thank the Lord.... Last thing--the legs puffiness has gone away....

Hi Girlinnycn - I am going through the process of being banded and am using Dr. Ren (who is Dr. Fielding's partner and wife). I would love to hear about your experience with them. Good luck.
