Well, it is week 3 and I have decided to name my band.
I thought Caligula was an appropriate name it actually means "little boot" but I thought it was fairly appro for my "little band".
So Caligula and I are moving on. It has been slow go since the banding I have only lost 14 lbs. I know in the past I would have been exstatic with 14 lbs in 3 weeks but no more. I want it all.
I know I need to be patient. Even my doctor said I would...

The weigh in and if you want a great recipe let me know
Well weigh in not so bad, have lost 6 lbs. Doc is ok with that, says I am in the recovery stage not weight loss stage. Whatever that means and says a pound a week is acceptable.
It may be acceptable but I need more than that with an all liquid diet.
I told him about the cheats and he said I still have stitches inside and should not do it. And just for that I am on liquids for another 3 weeks.

Well, today was my two week post op day.
Tomorrow I weigh in for the first time. What do I do. I had lost 15 lbs in the first 9 days and now I am only down 3 lbs. I am not sure what is going on. I can only hope that my scale broke, but for some reason I don't think that is the case.
The all liquids is really hard and I have added crackers to my soup. But have "Cheated" with little bites of this and that and have not found anything that I cannot eat. I...
