Guest CeeJay Posted August 23, 2005 Hi all, I was banded April 26, 2005. Starting weight 281, six foot male. No fill for about six weeks, then 1 cc. Not much change, losing weight due to choices and exercise. Had another 1 cc fill on thursday, August 18th. BIG change. Can drink Water but it hurts like a cramp in my stomach. Takes about 20 minutes to drink a Protein shake, and it is uncomfortable. Dr.'s orders were Clear liquids for one day, full for two days, then take it slow as I add new foods. My question is, will I eventually be able to drink Water, milk, coffe or anything and not have this pain or tightness in my abdomen? Oh and I am down to 253. No more gall bladder,(had it out at same time as banded). No more GURD, or high blood pressure medications. I was right on the edge of being a candidate but the gall bladder, GURD,and High blood pressure kicked me over into the grey zone. My all time heaviest was 291, and I have too much to live for and an active live that i want to extend by being a more healthy weight. Have to go work out now. Will check back later for replys. Thanks, for listening to me throw up!! CeeJay Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
