    Bruising-Worried

    DesertRose80 replied to knewland's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I have some bruising too. But call your doctor just to let him be aware and just in case he wants to check you out. My bruises are in other areas, but you should call no matter what.

    Tummy Pain

    DesertRose80 posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I'm 5 1/2 days post op. I'm still having a lot of pain in my upper abdominal area...right under my chee chee's. About how much longer will this last? Sitting and bending over are the worst! The gas pain is gone, hallelujah!

    Tummy Pain

    The port area is swollen, but it's all the upper area from both sides. Just under the port, north.

    Watch the current episode of Modern Family 3 days post op! My stomach is still hurting from laughing. It's painful! Keep to Dateline: Investigates or something else boring.

    75 N Feels Not Enough

    DesertRose80 replied to f1stborn's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    We all have discouraging moments. That's normal. Just keep in mind that you are 75lbs better today than not doing anything at all! It'll keep coming off and you'll be so happy! Keep posting and know that we're all cheering you on!

    Help! I'm two days post op. I haven't been able to burp much, and my chest feels like I have the worst heart burn! I've been hot padding it up, walking like crazy, and doing EXACTLY what I'm supposed to do. So which is it? Cn I take some chewable tums?
  16. DesertRose80
    MummyMeg...I'm the opposite. I can fart...but no burps!
  17. DesertRose80
    Me too! I get to go to regular liquids on Tuesday and I'm stoked!

    Weight Watchers

    DesertRose80 replied to NaeNae759's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums

    Im doing Lindora when i go to solids. It high protein/low carb...not like adkins. They encourage natural sugars and portion control even with protein. I've done WW before and Im one of those people who does better when things are more strict. For me....just for me...WW had too much grey area and i felt like i could cheat easier.

    Just Banded

    DesertRose80 replied to newme37's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I'm with y'all. I was banded yesterday late morning. I did wake up from anesthesia in a lot of pain, but my nurse was right there helping me with pain meds. Then I started dry heaving and she gave me a shot of Zofran. It's so wonderful to know you're not alone. We all have one another and the veteran Bandsters.

    Yes, I get dizzy when I stand in one place. I have to either keep walking or lay down.
