Well, its been a rough month since my lap band surgery. But the lap band is doing fine. I had my first adjustment this week and it went well. I haven't had any problems with nausea. So far I have lost 15 lbs. and hope to start losing again now that I have had an adjustment.
The one thing this has done for me is make me more conscious of what I eat. Since I can only eat small portions, I have to make sure it is healthy. Of course, Mexican food is my one exception to that rule. I was really nervous about the fill this week. But there were a lot of people there for their fill and most had already had several fills. So we talked about that and compared notes about what we could and could not eat. So far, I haven't found anything I can't tolerate. I haven't tried any kind of soft breads. I can eat crackers, corn chips, Baked Lays potato chips and croutons.
I've also been able to start walking for exercise. Hopefully, that will help with the weight loss. I want to be significantly down by the time we start traveling this summer.
