  1. I wen to my local pharmacy, not walmart and they order a generic tylenol, I did this before my surgery so I was prepared, one pharmacy told me to take chilfren's tylenol and just increase the dosage.
  2. I just put bariatric recipes and I found. spark .com its a support group for dieters and they have bariatric recipes I alaso found Foerdtert its a medical college of Wisonsin and they have a lot of recipes. I hope I remember these two places when I can eat. I just had surgery last Wednesday and I am on protein and liquids so I have a while to go before I am eating.
  3. This is my third day and i am hungry, I can only have zero calorie drinks, i did beef both, crystal light herbial tea, but I am still hungry, i have done fast before but this one is causing me grief. Thank God I can sleep i slept 10 hours last night
  4. Had my surgery yesterday, was not bad, as I imagine, It was great. Went hospital 9am, surgery10:30am, went to bariatric floor at noon, left hospital at 3:30pm went to Wal-Mart, bough a sit up pillow (the kind you would watch tv with, great suggestion)and pill crusher and generic Tylenol from Alitons pharmacy. Called my family and friends to tell them I was ok after surgery, drank ,my liquids, symptoms, pain in left shoulder, sore throat and headache, I had 2 surgeries in May and June and never had these symptoms especially the headache and the sore throat. I think this anesthesiologist is not as good as the one in Scranton Orthopedic nor Crystal Run Healthcare, because I didn’t have any of those symptoms. when I had surgeries for torn menicus in my kneee and a endoscopy for am ulcer/ Two suggestion given to me by women in my bariatric group was to have cystal light hard candy to suck on for dry mouth and gasx strips, to help with gas pain in my shoulder I used both and did well. gasx strip were hard to find, but they are better than the chewable, I found them in a pharmacy walmart did not have them. I felt great after surgery like I started a new life, also I wore a dress to hospital so I would have no extra pain around my mid section, Had to sleep on my back,I went up stairs to my bedroom with no difficul, someone also suggestion I got the pillow that you would use to sit on floor to watch tv, to prop youself up in bed and I got it at Wal-mart fo $13, could read in bed and use my lap top, I also had a body pillow which helped with my sleeping, I 'm still have knee pain for my surgery in May so I have mote than you would experience. I was told by living with lapband.com forum, about the gas pain in my shoulder which has helped me immensely. Bought a size 14 bathing suit a and Capri exercise pants 14 look at them when I get up and at night so I can think thin, I can’t wait to get in them.
