Cheryl145 0 Posted September 2, 2008 Hi there all. My name is Cheryl and I was banded on 8/18/08 in Gainseville, Florida. I am 5'7" and weighed 275 before starting my pre-op diet and 262 day of my surgery. Surgery went very well and I was down to 255 at my first week follow-up. I am to have my first fill on 9/16/08. My doctors post-op diet is nill. I am able to eat whatever I can tolerate. I am trying to be good because I want this to be a new way of life for me. I can not tolerate bread, which I see as a blessing. I am still very hungry and am anxious for my first fill. Thanks for listening and I hope to talk to you soon.

GRANNIE JENNI 0 Posted September 2, 2008 the more Protein you drink the less hungry you will be. my first fiill is sept 11 i've done pretty good so far i realize this is not a miracle fix and have started to vacumn pack healthy vegatables , made up turkey patties and froze them and other foods to have stuff done up and quick to grab after work . even though i could still stuff myself i don't this is my last chance to get the weight off so i will be trying to behave. food shouldn't have that kind of power over me, i need to get a grip !!!!!

Cheryl145 0 Posted September 2, 2008 Thank you for Chatting. I'm a bit confused about how to actually get into a conversation. There are so many places to go on this site. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
