Does anyone have issues with fruit particularly grapes? They sit in my stomach kinda like a sour stomach? Just seeing if anyone has had any issues with them? Also I had my fill about 4 weeks ago and did not have any issues not it seems that food now having some minor issues! NothNothing ma

I took off three weeks! But I had the time that I saved! I'm glad for that! I think 1-2 weeks. But everyone is different! Every one says that! But I could not imagine going back to work after a couple of days. Also I lift heavy things in my job so that's why I didn't get the ok! Good luck!

Congrats! Was is your name on my fitness pal

I got my first fill today at 10. The worst part was the waiting. The doctor cleaned the area with alcohol and before I knew it , it was over !!! I did close my eyes because the needle did look big on the table. But it was a small pinch like the flu shot pinch. Some pressure and it was over. Ihhungry now because

I had terrible gas pain. When I I went to the doctor for my follow up I asked him why they didn't warn us about the pain. He said some people experience it and some don't. I had terrible actually excruciating left shoulder pain. The good thing is that everyday it got better, thank goodness. I kept remembering this too shall pass!!!!! A heating pad made it more manageable. Good luck. It's all worth it in the end

Good job !! Looking good. Thanks for sharing the pics with us! Look amazing!

Hi welcome, I had surgery on 12-14-12. Feeling good! You will find a lot of info on this board . All doctors are different! I was one night stay over. I couldn't wait to come home. Good luck and holler if you need anything.

I am a big proponent of dr oz, he had Chris Powell who is a trainer on his show. He has suggested almond butter a tsp 30 mins before each meal. You can get it in the peanut butter isle or make it yourself, 1 cup of almond blended with 2 tbl of olive oil. I think it is amazing ! I went to a nutrionist about a year ago who also suggested it. I think I didn't want to try it because of the sound. I have been doing it for a week now and feel alot better and not as hungry! Maybe he's onto something!

Hi I just got the bill from the doctor! I owe 4000. The hospital was covered under my insurance but the doctor was out of network. I thought I would owe 2000 the max! Pretty shocked at the price tag. Do you think there is anyway around this?

I would bring all the above mentioned but I hardly used any of it! I must of thought I was going on vacation over night but my experience and my room mates was the same that we felt terrible!!! I just wanted to sleep! I asked the nurse If I was suppose to walk around and she said she doesn't push the patients to walk! And to boot my hospital REFUSED to let us drink until about 30 mins before I was released ! I was allowed to swab my mouth!!!! I know everyone was different but I couldn't wait to leave!!! The nurses were loud!! The room was cold and they came every hour to check vitals! I really hope you have a better experience!!! I ran into my hospital roomie at the doctors office and I asked her about her experience and she felt the same. No tv just sleep! Good luck to you!!!!!!!

Hi welcome! I probably could of written 3/4 of that letter. I had a lower BMI and gained some weight to get approved! The nurse said to me do not lose any weight so I felt very stressed until I was approved! Two doctors offices said I would not be approved! When I went to the nutrition class they called me and another woman aside and asked what our BMI was and lolled worried that we don't belong there . This journey is personal and even though I have a lower BMI instill have the same struggles. I have ALWYS exercise pretty much it's the portion control that does me in! I mean I have watched what my friends eat and they are stuffed with 1/4 sandwich or dinner, where I want to start on my husbands dinner I got banded in dec 14 and I feel very in control as of right now! I am following the rules! I am eating with smalll spoons and forks, taking my time to eat and not drinking with my meals! I am praying that this is it! Good luck to you!!!!!

I tried everything dr oz has told his audience. I did not see a difference when I took the raspberry ketones. In fact after surgery I got rid of all the unnecessary vitamins! I am just listening to the doctors orders! He said to not weigh yourself everyday because it will make you go crazy! So I don't. Good luck to you .

Where in central jersey?

Where R you from?

How are thing? Things are good on my end!!! Survived Xmas eve and Xmas !!

The doctor said it was gas but this pain is literally debilitating . I was shopping and the pain almost takes your breath away. I have not returned to work yet but I can't have this pain while I work. And I'll be honest I can handle pain pretty well but today was the worse! Keep the comments coming any help is better than no help!!!

The pain came back again 1 1/2 after eating 1/8 protein for dinner. The shoulder pain feels like I dislocated my shoulder! Excruciating pain. Icy hot and heating pads help. ANYBODY HAVE THIS? I swear I eat slow and it happens 1 1/2 after a meal!

Ok! I am one wee post op. I have a glass a water and about a hour had major shoulder pain. The doctor said to slow down!!!! . Today I have about 1/8 of cottage cheese I took a while to eat it, use a baby spoon. Felt ok eating. About 1 1/2 hours later developed major shoulder pain ! Help?

Second day post op and I am not feeling as well as I thought . I slept ok last night but I have shoulder pain felt a little crampy, I am sure it's gas, the nurse said before I left the hospital to keep moving but how much? I walked 10 mins for every hour should I walk more? Any advice is helpful!!!!

I stayed over night and just got home . I feel terrible ! We were not allowed to have anything no water no ice chips to about one hour before I was allowed to leave. My room was by the nurses station and had to keep buzzing the buzzer to tell them to shut the door and to keep it down. And the room next to me was wailing for some reason. I had a very nice roommate but both of us feel terrible. This belly pain is not anywhere near sit up pain. My favorite saying"this to shall pass" I got to believe tomorrow i will feel better .

Good luck

About a week or so some put a list of what to bring with you to the hospital. I am staying over night and looking for it. Anyone???

Hi let's all route for each other and keep on touch! I don't find out till midday when surgery is tomorrow trying to stay busy thankfully I'm working today!!
