Hi, I have enjoyed seeing your posts, Today is my one month anniversary!!

So far so good, only one small set back with a port infection. All is well now.

My pre-op weight 297lbs. Four weeks post-op 275lbs.

I have just started eating soft foods this week. I am starting to feel a little

more hungry these days, scheduled for my first fill on March 7.

Hi Kimberly

How are you doing thus far with the infection? Hope everything is going good for you in that area. Have you read Lisa's post ( Delarla's) regarding port infections.

Anyway Great that everything else is good for you.

Thanks Everyone, I am feeling great! Yes I did see Delarla's post and it is very scary.

I was lucky to have caught the infection early, My Dr. put me in for IV Antibiotics right away, that really helped. It is a very painful thing. I am guarding it with my life. So far I am loving my band, Everyone I have talked with has been so kind and helpful. I don't personally know anyone else aside from my hospital roomie, with a band. So I have really looked forward to seeing your posts, I have learned a lot. Thanks Again

Hello everyone!! I am Lillie. I was banded on 02/02/2005. I am feeling pretty good so far. I thank everyone for all of their comments. It has really been helpful and has answered a lot of my questions. I still have some soreness at the incision, but other than that I think I am doing pretty good. I have lost 12 lbs since pre-op. I look forward to chatting with everyone and I hope everyone has a great week.

Surgery date :02/02/05
