Hey Everyone!
I was banded 5/08/08! Best thing I have ever done!
I started my blog because reading other blogs from bandsters inspired me and helped me through the band process! I hope that my blogs will help future bandsters as well!
Thank you!
OPPS!!! I was too full! I tried to make it as long as I could with the 2.5cc... I came to work yesterday, I was unable to eat any breakfast, I just drank about 3 sips of juice.. Then I tried Lunch.. I felt ok, and then guess what?!?!? It came up!! YUCK! I called the nurse and she said to come in... I was unable to drink water all day!!! I went in around 4 to get a little taken out.. I had lost 6lbs in one day.. she said she was glad I came in, I was on the verge of dehydration.. not fun!! I have 0.75 cc removed.. It was instant relief.. I felt like I had a golf ball stuck in my chest all day, and boom it was gone!! I still have a tight restriction.. For dinner I had 1 serving spoonful of tuna casserole. It took about 30 mins to eat it.. For breakfast this morning I had 4 little spoonfuls of oatmeal.. I am trying to sip on my water right now.. well here goes the pounds!! YEAH!!! I go back in 2 weeks for a little fill again... I hope I do great!
I only gained 8oz. ( they told me I would gain before my first fill) I thought for sure I had gained 10lbs.. I had been eating a lot, or it seemed that I had been eating a lot.. but I guess I did good!!
They filled it with 2.5cc of saline.. It feels tight.. I hope its not too tight.. I will try to eat some yogurt later to see what happens!
I plain on eating liquid or soft foods for a couple of days..
