Banded 2 Weeks

[stephmzt 0]

Hi All,

Just introducing myself. I was banded on March 12th. I wrote a thread the other day in another forum to someone who is having gallbladder problems which I have had.

Anyway, lost about 15 lbs so far and starting to feel pretty good. People have noticed the difference in my face. I think I just feel good knowing I've made a big step in making a difference in my life.:clap2:

I lost very fast too.

It sure helps encourage you does't it?

Make sure you get your liquids in.

I loved and still love sf instant carnation breakfasts to drink.

Good luck and welcome.

Thanks all. I had some gallstones after my surgery so was on IV fluids which helped get me started. I also love the carnation instant Breakfast drinks and even drink them for dinner or have half if I feel hungry. I am a little nervous about the first fill though. Just when you get adjusted its like starting over again.

I was banded on 3/12/07 too. I've lost 12 lbs. Good luck! I'm excited to have the band in. I was a bit sore, but am feeling much better now. How about you?

I was banded on March 20 and I had to e-mail my nurse because if I had to drink another powdered anything, I was going to be sick. I would gag just taking a sip of a Protein Shake and I liked them at first. She talked to the pa and as of yesterday I can start adding creamy Soups. So far as of today I am down 24 lbs!!!!

Yippeee!! I just weighed myself and I've lost another pound. I had lost 7 lbs before the surgery and now I've lost 13, that's a total of 20 lbs!!!! I can't even tell you how excited I am.
