well i did make it past 4 weeks i am 5 weeks post op and am loving the fact that i did have the surgery. i have some reservations on certain days when i know i didnt do my best but i know that this whole journey is a process for me and i wont do things the way other people do them and what i am doing is good...even though i lost 12 lbs the first week i have since gained back 4 but even tho i gained i see it as a good thing because its only 4 pounds and the doc said that it normal for that to happen when going from liquids to solids...i got my first fill today as well and i was struggling with the liquid part of the requirement. its difficult for me but ima get through it even tho i must confess to eating spinach dip today, yes i know bad, bad me but i was hungry today because on weekdays i eat puree form in the day and eat a solid in the evening but today i forgot about the fill and i was beyond starving once i got home this evening..tmrw is another day i know it...my belly hurts where he gave the injection so i am going to skip my billy blanks today, i try to do billy at least 2x a week....i park about a quarter of a mile away from my school so i can walk  little bit...i know i can do more and i pray everyday for the strength to do much better than yesterday because its difficult...have a good evening everyone

hi everyone i am new to this site and am so excited to be on this weight loss journey...i was banded 7-28-10 and have since lost 12 pounds so far...i am struggling with getting used to cooking food for my kids but not able to eat it...even tho i admit to tasting some sauce with my finger...lol  but every day there is a new challenge especially getting the excersize in every day or at least mostly everyday....i also am struggling with the feeling that i have with the band i feel tight in my belly like a full feeling but i am not full cause my stomach does growl in hunger....im not sure but i guess it is my body getting used to the band but i dont really like this feeling that much....i am looking forward to week 4 i wish everyone much success
