I had my one month post op appointment yesterday.  Everything went great.  I'm cleared to start eating real food!   I tried some grilled chicken, but I hurt for an hour afterwards.  Think I'm going to stick to soft foods for another week or so.
By the Dr.s scale I was down 19 pounds from my pre-op appointment.    On my home scales I weighed 223 the day of surgery.   Today I weighed 205.   I can't wait to be back in the 100's!   My lowest weight with my band was 192.   I'll be there again soon!

Here's my preop pic.


This was 6 days post op.


This is from today. I was one month post op Wednesday.

Looking good! I'm with you on taking it slow adding back real food. I had to go back to softs for a while. I just couldn't handle it yet. That method worked for me. Now I can eat pretty much anything that's on plan without issue.

My mind is ready for solid food, but my tummy isn't!   I don't want to have pain when I eat.  I had enough of that with the band!
I'm glad to here that you don't have issues now!

It does feel great to be losing again!   When my band went crazy I gained around 30 pounds.  It's much more fun to see the number on the scale going down lol!

Thank you!  I couldn't really tell that much difference until I compared the pics.  I guess 19 pounds can make a difference!    35 more pounds and I'll be at my goal!!!!!!!
