Did you have your gallbladder removed as well? Prior to having mine removed, I was lactose sensitive but after, I can not tolerate dairy at all. There are Lactaid drops, which are pretty rad and might help. But yeah, I'd def. talk to your doctor!

Hooray for VA girls! I'm a total newbie from Woodbridge but would love to connect with other in-state to talk weight-loss fashion, diet advice and general band stuff! Feel free to message - I'd love some band buddies!

Hi all,
Just wondering if there are any other derby girl bandsters out there. If so, how has your post-op skating gone? I was banded on Sept. 20 of this year and (naughty me) started skating again about a week and half later. I am trying, however, to watch core exercise for a couple more weeks and am still taking it easy on wheels.
Any advice for getting back on the track? I've got jammer dreams for this time night year!
exoh, Snarky

Yay! What are the odds?! This is rad!
Yeah, I felt pretty good about 10 days later (like ass before that, though). Technically, I was not cleared skated when I got back on the track... But I was getting that itch. I felt fine but was just doing basic skating. Since I've moved up to endurance skills but am not doing an direct core exercises and am no-contact til next week. I am definitely nervous about going back to 100% but the nurse at my office is a huge derby buff and is so supportive.
I am so stoked to slim down and speed up. And I know my girls will take it easy until I am healed... I am worried about bouting, though. It's a whole new world of skating. I'm down about 35 pounds in about a month and cannot imagine skating even lighter. I've got to say - the thought of jamming and skating faster has been a huge motivator!!!
