dianalyn

My doctor requires b12 either in shots or liquid drops.

After the first couple of days it felt like a pulled muscle only hurting when my movement required stomached muscle use. I switched from narcotics to Advil Tylenol rotation on day 2. 23rd you'll be ready to rock! Good luck. Ps... This coming from someone who had laparoscopic surgery may 31st then banded August 3rd- double wammy.

Day 4 for me.....cream of wheat diluted with skim milk and thin creamed soups. However, your doctor should have given you post op diet instructions.

Thank you all. Up and around today, weaned myself off of the narcotics using tylenol and ibuprofen, it enables me to function better. I appreciate all of your prayers......sore but the pain is tolerable.

Please pray with me.

Thank you. Hope things get better

My surgery us tomorrow also at 6:30, prayers appreciated. My surgery is outpatient is yours?

August 3rd from Memphis area

How Re you feeling today?

Katie my surgery is also the 3rd and I have hypothyoridism. Keep your dosage in line and you will lose. Good Luck!

3rd!

I personally enjoy Muscle Milk brand. I have also purchased unflavored and added to juices.

This may be due to the persons bmi.

August 3rd!

July 30th!

Anyone else?

Do you have your gall bladder?

Walgreens- children's section. Use adult dosing guidelines

Hummus? Greek yogurt has tons Protein. Pack your lunch- avoid thd cafeteria if you can. Good luck- today is a new day

My doctor says low fat proteins only- no peanut butter.

Had to postpone my band- had my galbladder removed May 31st. Banding will now be the end of July . I want to stay motivated, I read so much negative feed back from people who are failing theirselves, by not following the guidelines. If I keep reading these I may change my mind. I am self pay- it is a lot to pay to fail. I see lots of excuses.

3 weeks per my docs handbook

Went to my pre surgery appointment - getting banded August 1st. ( having gallbladder surgery Thursday). To the point- my doctor recommends sublingual b-12 or b-12 shots to regain energy. Can not hurt to try.

In 2009 the education may have been very different. Today, however they stress over and over it is just a tool.

Lots of people do not realize that it takes your effort to lose and keep the weight off. I choose not to hear people give 100% credit for my future weight loss to the band. Nor to hear "you're not THAT big" I have told only my husband and one out of town friend who was banded herself. I may change my mind later.
