  1. Wow....my surgery was totally different, well I had mine in NJ but I was in such pain after the surgery. The moment I was waking up from anthesia, I was hurting and the gas was sitting there right in my left side. I was scheduled to go home that day but that didnt happen. I asked to stay in the hospital and they did take good care of me....A couple of hours later I was able to walk a little up and down the hall, and I only did that because the nurses promised me that was the only way to get rid of the gas......I did check out the next day and by Monday (day 3) I felt like a million dollars.....everyone recovers different, but I was looking like 5 months pregnant and hurting.......lol....Im 3 weeks out, my tummy swelling has subsided much and I'm soooooooooooooooooooooo happy that I got through it and i would have not changed a thing....3days of misery in exchange for lifetime of being thin??? Yeah, I'll take it!!
  2. OMG!! I bought the same dancing CD!!! I cant beleive I forgot it!! I got my crystal light here and I'm going to introduce more water. Im just so worried that I went through all of this and have it not work. I'm hungry all the time, but that's because i havent had my first fill. Im just so excited that I fianlly get to be skinny again and I just cant wait any longer!!!!!!!!!! Todays jeans are feeling loose, (just washed) so that makes me feel great..........
  3. Im consuming about 1300 calories today and I gained 2 pounds??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
  4. so proud of you!! I weigh a little less than when you started and I'm looking to reach my goal within 6 months....did you go through a tough time between the surgery and first fill?? That's where I'm at right now...scales havent moved and I'm hunry all the time!!
  5. Well, I'm in offical bandster hell........I'm hungry ALL the time...im in stage 3 mushy foods, ground beef and so on and I feel so hungry all the time, however my mornings I'm not hungry at least 2 hours after I wake up. My first fill is not until Oct 14th...the scales havent moved but oddly, these new pair of pants that I have fit like a glove, last week they didnt. I'm offically out of the XL and comfortable moved to the large category. Has anyone experienced this during this time period???
  6. wow, what a story...I was just complaining to my friend that I have not lost anything since last week...Im only 13 days out, and I'm feeling so hungry with no restriction what so ever. I get my first fill on 10/14. So I gotta be good until then
  7. I'm curious to know how much is the surgery at OCC??? I was covered here under my insurance in NJ, so I have no idea how much it cost.
  8. Today I went into the bathroom here at work and I couldnt beleive that it was me in that mirror. I've always hated this mirror because it doesnt lie...........my pants are falling off and I'm wearing a sweater that was just there and now it's ill-fitting. I cant beleive that it's finally happening. I want to scream out of happiness out the window!!!!!!
  9. I'm mega mega mega worried that I streched out my pouch because I'm hungry all the time!!!!!!!! I was doing so well right up until Sat, which was day 8........I feel like Im starving all the time..............please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  10. yay!!!!!!!!!! this is my day 7 as well!! Ok so now I feel better about moving myself to full liquids....Im going to buy slimfast today as soon as I get home....as for the gas bubble I too am suffering bad on my left side. I had my first BM on tuesday. Any suggestions on what I can consume while on the full liquids????
  11. scratch that.....lol.....as I was drinking my lovely tomato soup, I got so full and now I got a gas buble stuck in my shoulder blade!!!!!!!!!! man this is a bad one....you should see me sitting at my desk all lop-sided....lol. I was pounding my fist on my desk and my co-worker came over to see if I was ok.....lol........how embarrasing!!
  12. I'm soooooo worried that I may have band slippage....today, Ive been doing my liquids as usual and im sooooooooooooo hungry, Im at work and no access to ice pops!! Today is one week exactly that I had my surgery. I wonder if I can go to full liquids now instead of clear liquids.....a nice tomato soup sounds good about now!!! Am I being paranoid about band slippage because today I'm starving??
  13. Okay, how much did everyone loose before their first visit? I have my first visit on Monday coming up. I'm attending a class and then I will meet with him so he can look at my stiches. I've only lost 10 pounds since it was done on 8/29. Should he expect more? or am i just about right???
