State: KY | Congradulations Misty, I will be banded March 20th so forgive me if I attempt to pick your brain from time to time. I have been on the forum for 3 yrs trying to get insurance approval and 95% of sound information I have received has been from this forum. I believe there is at least one person here who has experienced any question you might have. Luck to you.

City: Columbus State: OH | Hi Fab girls! Well it's been 11 days since surgery and I feel Great!! Aside from an emotional time at the estaurant whee i was sooo hungry and couldn't find anything to eat I finally ended up with some mahed potatoes and ice cream what a combo but I didn't eat much of either so I didn't feel too guilty I had to EAT!!! so getting back to eating is kinda weird . I hop I'm not "pushing it" but the liquids gotta go.

State: England | Hi all
well sad to say i only get to chat here for a year, turned 49 in feb, but hey after being banded in nov 07,being 50 next year and 112 or more pounds lighter, i can hardly wait. I remember saying at 39 i am not going to be fat at forty but all the good will and dieting in the world could not change that. So now i can say i will not be fat at fifty and this time i have my band to ensure it.
Best wishes to all
Lisa

City: Peoria State: Illinois | Hello everyone nice to have this Forum for us over forty somethings......Afterall our metabloisms are not what they were in our 20' or 30's. With that being said I have jump started mine through diet and exercise. I am never returning that god awful feeling of tired that I had before surgery.
It is so nice to have energy at the end of the day and not to be a couch potato. Nice to read about everyone's success, good luck on your journey's and I am certain this will be a great Forum.
Hugz,

City: Between Johnstown and Somerset State: PA | hello everyone! I've been missing in action - checking out the plastic surgery threads. I got approved for a full tt and I'm just sooooooo excited! I hope to have it done by the end of April. I go in next thurs. and will get my date then. I'm going in for a fill today in hopes of losing 10 more lbs before the tt.
Scrappy-Friend had her band surgery yesterday - I'm sending warm hugs and praying for you.

City: Farmington State: New Mexico | Howdy all. I am 48 and banded on 3/18. I have lost 20 lbs pre and post band and doing well on liquids. I haven't minded them thus far knowing it won't last forever. And I like challenges so I finding new ways you can mix liquids to make new flavors! For the restaurant thing : call ahead and see if they have something on the menu or better yet take some boullion granules and ask for hot water. Some restaurants can accomodate you with clear soup options and chinese are my favorite, bring on the egg drop, especially if they are the nice ones who will strain it for you!
