I was released on the 26th of Nov to go back to work, but no I have not been to the gym yet. I think thats what my husband is getting me for Christmas is a membership.

My surgeon keeps saying "Don't focus on the weight" but that is very very hard.  I had my 2nd fill today and will go back the last week of Dec for my 3 month checkup.  Haven't lost as much as I had hoped but this is still the beginning. 

I walk on the tread mill about 4 times a week for 30 minutes each time.

Hi, I was banded on Nov 7, and i'm down 19lbs. My dr told me after week 6 you can work out. Nothing before than. How are your eating habits? I go for my first fill on Dec 16. I can't wait because its been almost 2 weeks i'm still at the same weight, i've watch what I've eaten, so i don't understand.  Good Luck

Also make sure you're getting enough protein.  That, combined with some type of exercise should get you kickstarted again too!!

Good luck.

I had my surgery on 11/19, I've lost about 18 pounds since then.  We're going to talk about my first fill when I go back to the doc on 12/30.  So far so good!!!  I've heard other people say they gain weight once they went from liquid to puree.  Fortunately, I didn't.  Hang in there!!
