hope you are medication. I ger MRSA everytime I have a cut that doesnt heal my doctor said we all have it in our system but once weget a flare up like you did I should go in for the test and get on meds right away. Sometime you have to be on then for weeks..Maybe you doctor should have started youn on them when he replaced the port.

yes of course you are on your way but keepin mind you might need a few but each time is a new learning experiance and is is for life a new and exciting one.
-
well, could be stuck or the band might be bent over call your surgeon now.

Tips for day before clear liquids?
line-dancer replied to melanndoll's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
make your own chicken broth, get some creamed soups (lots) and protien drinks (EAS myoplex lite ) milk of magisum to get the gas out, heating pad. Good luck you'll be so glad you did this but rember you wont lose weight the first 6 weeks you need to heal and learn to eat and practice the rules... -
would love to have spell check on here

Restrictions post op
line-dancer replied to fnika12's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
this is the hard part for sure hang in there you will be glad you did. Get all the food you shouldnt eat out of the house and if you hve kids and hubby I am sure they could losse a few pounds also. They can eat the junk at school, friends house, in the back yard anywhere that you dont see it or hear it that kind of support is priceless good luck you'll make it.My kitchen looks like we need to go to the food bank lol -
OMG did I step in it again? so sorry:) I like your post

well, if you can eat apple pie just cook yout apple till soft with nothing added. We all know the bsnd didnt make us loose the weight it was the deacation to eatting right that did plus excerise. I want to eat the great tasteing stuff and do once in awhile when out but I dont allow anything in the house that I shouldnt eat. Even on Holloween I make the kids keep there candy art school.I love being thinner but I cant be trusted, will power wasnt never my long suit so this is how I need to do it for me.

Green Zone/Sweet Spot
line-dancer replied to cda97's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had problems and they took all the fluid out but I am slowly getting it back up just had a fill 6cc in a 10cc band and I feel alittle in the back of my throat but I think I will get just a bit more that would put me back to where I was 6.5cc and I am hoping that does it again. I just didnt feel like eating and had to watch the clock ti remember that was the sweet spot for me. -
I have always sucked at diets but...
line-dancer replied to thenug's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
all of the above stands for me also..its is easier to stay with this eatting program and that was always my problem before...best thing I ever did for myself. -

Have not lost not even one pound since my surgery
line-dancer replied to Aylani07's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
you have had your band 23 days and expect to have lost? a lot of people do but I am sure your doctor explain this is not a quick fix..Your body needs to heal, you need to learn to eat beter this is a healing and learning period. Give it 6 wks to heal and a fill any then you should start seeing the loss....Be patient it will come if you follow the rules. -
This probably something you and your doctor discuss since he would know how you worked with the band. If your hungry all the time and need snack between meals a fill will help. I just went down yesterday for the very same reason.How wonderful to have reached goal and this 6 lbs is probablly water.

Half the woman I used to be!
line-dancer replied to kazjim98's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
wow that is wonderful doent you feel proud of yourself, I did and it was a new feeling You did some great work e would love to see pictures -
Really follow the rules the letter it is so important. dont get to this point and test the bsnd and looking for ways to get around it..it can be painful and dangerous. This will change your life and it is so worth the effect...Treat yourself and band like the Qween you are and always call doctor if you vomit..I didnt and I was so sorry.

welcome and good for you to face this jourgney I did year ago and have lost 70+lbs best thing I ever did its work but so well worth it. I live in Mount Vernon,Wa

Reconstructive surgery
line-dancer replied to foxychickytam's topic in Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery
just so you know any surgery anywhere can leave some of the area mum forever but it isnt anything to worry about. You just can play with God's work and get it bsack to his profection. Good work on you wieght loss. -
Yes I did last year and never got back to where it once was. I was Up to 6.5 but only went up to 5 but will go in this week for 1cc more and hope that puts me cback in the green. I did maintain very well and did go off program from time to time gain 5 lbs at the most but it casme over fast with just a few days eatting right and SLOW I still have 15 lbs to go and really want to make it. They took all the fuild out the day they discovered the proasp I surprized they didnt they do the same to you. Doc did say it will never work the same and it hasnt but I hope thats not how it works.
