Super tight during my cycle...my fill Dr. told me to do liquids for a couple of days. It works for me and it actually helps me with the weight loss. Keep up the good work!

I just read your post to my mom. I couldn't read it without tears! I don't know you, but I am so proud of you. Keep up the good work!

I had my surgery on December 12th. I'm going on the 27th for my first fill. So excited!!

I'm starting on creamy soups tomorrow and I was wondering if I'm not supposed to drink liquids 30 mins before and 1 hour after. Are creamy soups considered "solids"? Even though I know there not solids...I'm just confused. I am drinking water constantly and when I don’t I feel dehydrated.

Hi,

I am 9 days out. I too am feeling really lousy. Very nauseaus, headache and sore. I have a very hard time with taking medicine or vitamins without food..... thats a bit of a problem since I'm only on day 9. I've had a couple of drinkable yogurts but really can only tolerate water, gatorade and tea. Has anyone tried the anti nausea medicine they have at the drug stores? Would love some advise.

I went through the same thing about two years ago. I was seriously addicted to Diet Coke. My family kept printing those things about aspertame and how bad it is for you and how it kills you. But I didn't care. But about two years ago I went cold turkey. I was sick of everyone telling me I was addicted. Well, I was! It took me a very long time but I am Diet Coke Free > for two years now. I even tasted it the other day and it was gross. I just got banded last Friday and I couldn't even imagine drinking anything with carbanation. I would try giving it up. You will feel crappy for a while, but remember:

Diet Coke does NOT taste as good as THIN feels!!!!!

Yeah, I would call the doctor. I take my pills no prob.

Hey Girl!

It's Sarah (the smart one that sat in the front seat of the cab). How are you? I couldn't agree with you more about overdoing it on day one. I was soo sore the next day.

So the first couple of days were hell. I finally feel pretty good today. I was in quite a bit of pain and very nauseaus. I just had my first drinkable yogart and that made me feel so much better.

I hope you are doing better, and please keep in touch!

Sarah

My mom and I are flying in on the 11th also. We are from FL. Where are you from? Maybe we will see each other while we are there. Feel free to email me. leahsmom1027@gmail.com

Hey Carla,

I'm getting my surgery done on Dec 12th also. Are you going to Tijuana? I just scheduled mine two days ago. My mom is coming with me. Who's going with you? I am so excited, yet scared too.
