Sept 2011 bandsters
LovelyT replied to WannaBeSlimNow's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I know exactly what you mean! Clothes that I had put away in a box because they didnt fit anymore are starting to fit! Im so excited I have TONS of clothes that I kept from my "skinny days" & I cant wait to start fitting into them. Not only that, I had a bad habit of buying clothes that didnt fit me because I was always on a diet & thought I would lose the weight. We're talking brand new clothes with the tags still on! I have a whole new wardrobe waiting for me & its nice that I can look at them at know that I will be fitting in them soon instead of just hoping! Congrats on your weight loss! Lets keep it up & get rid of the back brush:) -

I was banded the day after you! I too had a moment where I caved. I was so hungry that it hurt to stand up straight! I ate 4 bites of a piece of ham & cheese. I was so embarassed even though noone saw me, I felt HORRIBLE, & not because it hurt physically, but because I feel like I let myself down. Sounds a little cheesy (mmm cheese), but I just went through this whole ordeal with surgery, all the pre-op testing, & pain....& I felt like I was throwing it out the window. But, it happened & it WILL NOT happen again. Also, breakups are rough-let alone dealing with this weight loss process. This is your time to focus on you! Remember that, & look forward to him eating his heart out when he sees the "new" you! -
Day 5 post op! I walked 3 miles today & felt exahausted after. Really happy I did it & glad Im recovering so well. Ill be back in the gym in no time!

I got banded at a surgery center as well. My surgery was scheduled for 10:30 but it got started a little later than that (the Dr. was running late). I got taken into the O.R about 10:50ish & I woke up from surgery about 12:30. They gave me some medication for the nausea & pain & made me "wake up". I was up & out by 1:15. It was actually a lot faster than I thought. They didnt even make me walk or go to the bathroom like I've read they had some other people do. The day after tomorrow for you!! How exciting Good luck!

Day 4 post op! Feeling better then ever, but hungry as hell:/ This liquid diet is not a easy as I though it would be. My boyfriend was talking to me today & his face started to look like a hamburger to me! Litterally, a talking hamburger!
