I'm really going to make an attempt to get more familiar with this website. I have been looking at many different WLF forums and message boards, trying to find a place that is easy to navigate and active! They are all a bit complicated to me, but I suppose if I visit every single day, I'll get it.My Lapband Surgery went perfectly. I healed up great and had my first fill last week. I still can eat. :-( I definitely feel a difference, but I find I can eat big portions and not feel any different. I am so anxious to start using this band and find it hard to keep my motivation up, knowing I'm not at that "sweet spot" yet. Sigh... It reminds me of what it was like before: start the day out motivated, journaling, counting, etc... and then somewhere during the day I want something sweet or to snack on or anything, and I don't really NOT feel hungry, so it's no big deal to grab something. Or in the evening.. trouble time. Snack time with hubby.
I plan on calling my surgeon tomorrow (one week since fill) and scheduling another one. I'd also like to see him before he leaves and talk about my options and other surgeons he will refer me to. I really need to stay motivated!! I made it through the worst part (I thought) the actual procedure! Surely I can do this!!!???!!!
