You see all thing come to those who wait. Im so happy for you mona-camille. JUst keep on going and dont look back. Youll be and the fast loosing track in no time.
Hey Trina, I'm still going thru this. I was also told that it was the band telling me I was full. I'm on solids now and if I dont chew propperly oh my what pain. As soon as the food goes thru i'm fine. You're going to be ok.
Yay for you and all of us. I also have been down sizeing went from a 22 to a 20 and yesterday was abel to get into some old 18's, I couldnt believe it. Keep up the good work.
WOW WOW WOW is all can say. No not really, Michelle since I started thinking about this surgery I've been always reading youre post and the more I read them the easyer is was for me to schedule it. I want to thank you for all youre post and all the help you have been to the soon to be new me.
Im so sorry youre not getting restriction. I started my first day of solids on July 1st and I have been full all the time, dont know what causes one to be and another not. Hope this changes for you soon.
I guess im the odd one out. I had my surgery on June 10th and I scheduled my 1st fill till August 12th at the OCC. The doctors told me that it was best so that I could test the band and know the real feeling of restriction. I do have restriction now because the band tells me that im full and I stop. I dont want these PB's. I eat my 3 meals a day I have my water thru out the day. I make sure im at 1200 calories and im never hungry. Im really glad about that part. For me to stop at three pieces of anything is a miracle, even my husband is immpressed with this band.
Thru the good and the bad WillT has been the rock I've been abel to lean on. As Tina Turnner would say "YOU'RE SIMPLY THE BEST" Thanks for all the help you've given me since I've been here.
Hey Girl, Since banding on June 10th till today I've only lost 10lbs. You are in the healing processe. I have hear many say that any weight lost in these 3 weeks is a good lost. Are you getting lots of water. I also couldnt go to the bathroom. Had to have surgery last friday because of that horrible word (hemmoroids) I know TMI. But they took care of that problem. and now Im on the road to recovery again, are you getting enogh fiber? If you still have problems call the OCC. Have fun at the party.
I found at walmart these really good puddings fat free I believe only 70 calories. It has a caramel topping it is way delicious.... yummy to the tummy.
Thank you, I'm at work but so far it has been wonderful, they got me a cake. I had a little piece since im on solid I think its ok. And tonite hubby is taking me out to eat. Dont know were yet, but excited never the less.
I went back and looked at my report and it said almost the same thing, fatty liver and abondant omentum. But the report also said there was no complications. So I guess its ok if not the would have said something to us.
WOW, that must have scared the living daylights out of you boy. I remember on my first day I too felt a little faint but once I laid down for about 15 minutes I was ok. Take it slow and keep us posted.
