NSV!!!

I only take 5000 biotin, and not facial hair. Could be hormones changes due to weight loss.

New Years Eve Surgery!!!
CHEZNOEL replied to NewLifeRight's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
LOL... that's better than me, mine was on Halloween... Felt a bit Frankienstein-ish! -
Love the new PJs! Perfect for after the hot tub!

Yawning and Sneezing
CHEZNOEL replied to Pebbagirl's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Ahhh.. the dreaded sneeze... but it does get better! -
mine is on the right as well

Good for you. Now keep up the good work!

Most people have at most one overnight in the hospital. Many are done as outpatient. Most seem to go back to work in 7- 10 days. The complete "recovery" takes 6-8 weeks. Ask away, we are here to help. Lap Band is one of the best decisions I ever made for myself!

Work with your doctor to help you with a plan.

Body Fortress Super Protein Shot
CHEZNOEL replied to MissPYT's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Mine came right back up. Taste is nasty! -
Keep up the good work Angela.

Never eat white rice... it is the worst for carbs. I can eat very crusty bread, but not the soft parts, so no loaf bread. I can eat pasta, but I chew the heck out of it and have only had it 5 or 6 times in 13 months. Not worth it. I stick with good lean protein/meat, fish and high fiber veggies, and only sweet potatoes, with splenda, no butter.

Good, now stop worrying, it causes stress which is known to cause eating! LOL

Stomach bloat post surgery
CHEZNOEL replied to dreamers's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You will be healing for at least 6-8 weeks. Don't rush things and you will be fine. It is major surgery, so expect some ongoing issues as your body heals. -
Good story and attitude! I like it!

I don't think you need gimmicks with the band. Just follow your plan given you by the surgeon and nutritionist.

I tell people that I am on a high protein diet and working with a nutritionist. If the BF is serious and you trust him, tell him. He could turn out to be a big supporter.

Trust the inches!

Surgery in the morning!
CHEZNOEL replied to Snipme2's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Some of us on are here late, come back and we can keep you company. Best wishes for tomorrow, I know how excited you must be! -
Maybe not... they like 1-1.5 pounds a week so 6 is right on target!

Help- what are the staples that I MUST have post op?
CHEZNOEL replied to finallytime's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I agree with all of the above. It is the worst stage, but it will pass. We promise! -
Had the same experience... not uncommon at all! You will heal fine now... but be on the watch for more... red pimply things! I hope you have just the one!

Just let em hang loose if you must!
