[ssj2519 0]

I was banded Aug. 17. I am on solids and have had no problems eating anything I have tried...including hamburger meat (in soup). I have lost 22 lbs. I have slowed down, but losing 2-3 lbs per week.

I was banded on 8/17, and I am doing good. I have a total lost of 16lbs. I can really tell by my clothes. Some of my pants I can take off without even unbuttoning them. WOO HOO!!! I was worried about my port incision not healing like the smaller ones, but it like overnight it started looking better. Started putting Bio-Oil on my incisions, to minimize the scarring. No pain at all. Even did a few sit-ups yesterday. Started eating low fat, low sugar items on this passed Monday which was labor day. Doing ok. Experienced my first bout of something being stuck today. Tried to eat a chicken wing. It was very uncomfortable. Shouldn't have been trying to eat it anyway. Never again. I don't wish that discomfort on anyone.
