Congratulations to all you new banders an a well done and keep up the good work to all the oldies.

I dont often post but read your progress regularly, and alway breath a sigh of relief when I find one of you have had the same problem. I was banded in March and have had 2 fills so far but things have really slowed down.I was on holiday a few weeks ago and managed to loss 3 pounds. I felt more restriction an it was too hot to eat anyway BUT since coming home I feel as if I could eat for Britain. Guess I am looking for a bit of reassurance that after my next fill next month I will be back on track. I am sure this will be the case. Wont it?:rolleyes2:

Angel Delight is a good one cause you can suck it. I lived on that in the first few weeks. Good luck to yourself and slinky and all the other new ones. My band is two months old now, can't wait for more fills....nothing much happening after the first one but I must be patient. Look after yourselves, wear loose clothes it will soon be back to normal xx

hi jayne how long did it take for your stomach to go down,i will feel alot better when the swelling goes down lol:blush:

well thats me back from banding !!! what a rollacoaster ride of thoughts and emotions thats was, from waking up on friday and thinking what the hell am i doing and how did it get to this !!!! to being really happy afterwards that i have done some thing positive to help myself and my family, I have to say,, credit to the ladies who got it done on the same day as me !!!! jesus they all had nerves of steel ...... well ladies, it was a pleasure meeting you all ............

If i hadnt been first think i might have been on next flight home ,,,,,, ( JUST WITH NERVES)

Anybody considering this operation i would give 2 bits of advise , 1 go DIRECT with DR chris and frederick and stay away from french cosmetic surgery (tullia ) 2 take some one with you ,

I am going to be banded on the 14th Sept, and was just wanting to ask a couple of things. Firstly do you have to get stitches taken out when you come back or do they disolve? Also i work as a hairdresser and i've only taken a week off after the op, do you think this will be enough time? Would also like to say i big congratulations to all the ones that's newly been banded, it's encouraging to hear such positive feedback! xx

Hi Pearce pleased to hear you are back from being banded. Your second piece of advice to stay away from Tullia why? Fullfat and myself have both booked through her and we are due to be banded this Friday (6th Aug). What's the problem with booking through her?

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
