Banded Monday

Hey everyone! Well I was banded Monday, was home by 11am. I over did it though. I didn't feel very good Tuesday. Today I am doing alot better. I don't think I am getting enough water though. Plus I am very hungry. The only pain I have is at the spot where my port is, It's like a sharp pain and then my tummy growls. I don't think it is the gas.....it's like I need to eat. I did figure out that I can't do cold or hot liquids......HAS to be room tempeture......WOW what a feeling if I do ( or if I take to big of a sip)  When did everyone else try a creamed soup, or yogurt or something???

I would have the broth from chicken noodle soup.  It tastes so much better than the regular broth.  Also when I was able to have more, I would put the whole can of soup in the bullet and blend it up.  It was like cream of chicken soup without all the fat. Congrats on the band.  It takes a while for it to work for you but once it does, its great.  I know I went thru several stages of wondering if the band was the right thing to do because at times I couldnt even tell I had it. Now its great. and I am down about 42 lbs so far.  I know others lose faster but I am cool with it now. Take care! Marsha

Congratulations!!!!
