I have a silly question

I am 5 days post op for lap banding..I need to hear from lap banders if I made my shake and was starving..Is it normal to have that shake in 10 mins.? Am I drinking too fast? let me know I feel as if maybe I am..I feel fine but I just want to make sure I am doing this right. thanks laney

Hey Elaine, I do not think that you are drinking to fast at all, matter of fact I was the same way. The way I feel is, as long as you are not feeling like you are getting stuck or drinking beyond feeling full, you should be ok. Your fears will ease with time LOL.....I remember that everything I did was going to hurt the band or pouch....Remember no question is silly, it is silly not to ask......Have a great day and good luck Dave T

Dave thanks for easing my mind...Wow I am being too paraniod...huh? Well pretty soon I'll be talking about my weight lose huh? By the way congrats on your success. Its nice to have friends here to count on..thanks again.

Hey Elaine, it is better to be cautious than careless....so no you are not too paranoid....It is nice to have friends...we are all one big banded family on here , huh LOL Take care..

hi david where is woolwich NJ, just curious thanks, jacki

Hey Jackie, Woolwich Twp, is near Swedesboro Borough, about 5 minutes from the Commodore Barry Bridge. It is actually 10 minutes from Pennsylvania and 10 minutes from Delaware, 20 minutes from Philadelphia....

swedesboro has a nice and special (for us anyways) restaurant called Rodes Fireside Inn -- we used to go there for my birthday and valentines day --but we didn't make it for my b'day in 06 or valentines day 07 -- maybe my 07 b'day we haven't attempted any restaurants yet Roberta

Yes Rode's is a great place...well known for their wings..Voted best in Gloucester County...Only can eat a few of them right now....The Swedes Inn is very well known for their French food also... throughout the Eastcoast I am told...
