laraestokes 0 Posted February 11, 2005 Hey-all-I just found this site yesterday after finding a few on yahoo-didn't really care for the one that has the most action on it, but some info was helpful. My husband was banded on 12/7/04 and I was on 12/28/04, so we are doing this journey together, but he is computer illiterate and isn't much of a talker. This is a private thing for him and the more that knows about me the better my support system I figure. SO far things are going good. Down 15 pounds in 6 weeks and had my first fill on 2/1/05 of 1cc. some things are okay to eat and some I have major restriction. Thats okay though. I am learning what I tolerate and what doesnt. I had a hard time with Vitamins until I seen a comercial for viactive Multi Vitamins. Went right out and got some-oh much better then flintstone chewables. They made me gag!

Iluvharleys 15 Posted February 11, 2005 Welcome to bandland! It sounds like you are doing great. It is so nice that that two of you were banded together. You have your own support in your own home! Don't worry, DH will just learn from you when you talk about the support stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
