      That's an awesome idea!!! I was wondering what I was going to do without my bike for the winter. Which one did you get?

      Awesome! What are you going to do? Walk? Bike? Yoga? You'll learn to love exercise and even crave it. Congrats on your progress.

  5. Celebrating my two month bandiversary! 41 pounds gone and not welcome back!

  6. I haven't updated in a while. Not so good news I'm afraid, over the last couple of weeks, I went up 5 lbs! I had no restriction at all and frankly was unusually hungry. I got my fill yesterday, I don't know if it took yet as I'm on a liquid diet until tomorrow. I can't wait to feel some restriction!!!

  7. Just spoke to Dr So at the OCC and we determined that I still am not in need of my first fill. I think I was going to use it as an excuse to not make myself behave. Glad I talked to him.

      Oh oh! I wonder if I should have waited. I am still loosing but desperately hungry all the time. I eat about a third of what I used to eat and I am not even close to satisfied. Just afraid to overeat cause I don't know how the band will punish me.

  10. day two solid food- feeling hungry, I was hoping I could go till after the holiday for a fill, but I think I'll book my flight for my nov 15 appt.

      I have my first fill scheduled for Nov 6. They said at OCC that you should eat a third of what you used to eat. I don't see how that can be possible right now!

  13. Okay all you bandsters out there!!! I arrive in Mexico on Wednesday and scheduled for band on Thursday. I'm excited and nervous all at the same time. What can you tell me about the first few days and first month post-op. Will I be hungry? Light-headed? Did you all lost weight initially? I have about 80-90 lbs to love.

    1. Lapband92410

      Like Altmark says, we're all different. One thing I can recommend to avoid gas build up is: Drink very very very slowly after the surgery. Everyone feels it but for me taking tiny sips helped big time. I wasn't really hungry either for a few days, it was just the thought of food more than anything. Also before you go, get yourself everything you'll need for the first week cause the last think you'll want to do is be at the grocery store right away.

  17. My scale is going in the wrong direction 182? :(

    1. Lapband92410

      Lapband92410

      I sure hope it will pass but it just gets frustrating sometimes. The old me would have said forget this and would have prepared a feast. It's a good thing I have the band. I am weighing myself every few days at the very same time (first wake up), no clothes, to keep it cosistent. This mid week weigh in has proven that pounds lost are not pounds gone. They can come back :-(

      3 more days for me!!! I'm excited although I am also loving the soups. They're delish but I do miss having a variety of food.

  19. Joined a gym today. First time in 8 years!!

  20. Tried on more of my "small" clothes to find I have missed a few sizes. Had two people today tell me that they thought I had lost enough, I guess that is good but I am still wanting to go lower.

    1. Lapband92410

      Congrats! It's so exciting to hear that people are noticing. That must feel so encouraging. You're doing great!!!

  21. Even though not really showing on scale...five patients have remarked on my weight loss this past week and a half...I will take it!!!

    1. Lapband92410

      Lapband92410

      Are you measuring yourself? I wonder if it's inches and not pounds what you're loosing.

      I know what you mean, just a few days ago I was taking my first sips of butternut squash creamy soup. I think I could do this forever. Have fun with them!
