Wooo hooo!  I am officially down 1 pound from last Thursday surgery date.  I was a little concerned because I knew I had fluid from the IV's and swelling and I felt that by day 3 I should see a turn around.  Well, I weighed this morning and I can claim 1 pound less....  Wooo hooo!!!

Wooo hooo Shelia!!!  Each victory, no matter how small, tastes oh so sweet, doesn't it?!  They'll just get sweeter and sweeter, I'll bet. 

You *sound* like you are really feeling good.  I am sooo glad everything went smoothly for you.  {{{Hugs!!!}}}

I would count ounces even if it would encourage me. Every pound does count. Whoo Hoo!

Unfortunately, I had to delete this message due to privacy concerns.

Got a lap band in 2008. Tried hard, but didn't lose much weight & developed swallowing problems. Fought my insurance company for almost a year & finally had a band to DS revision on 5/11/12. Have now lost 125 pounds. Yay!

Thanks to all who have offered encouragement - Shelli- Shauna - Darcie - I know I have forgotten someone!  Sorry...Edited - I jsut looked and I left out my buddy, Melissa and Ann !

I forgot to sip some water and oops - not a good feeling.  I guess some things are trial and error.  And I have tried to listen to everyone's tips, but .... I usually have to learn the hard way.

Thanks again for the support.

Yeah, Shelia,  I know how you feel.  It does seem good to see things going the other way for a change doesn't it. 

I really don't know exactly what I have lost because I just bought a new scale (old ones were broke) and don't know how much different they weigh than the doc's scale.  Will know more next Monday when I go to doc for checkup!
