  1. So I am wondering about the pain that comes along with the open style surgery. I seem to be in severe pain dependent on my pain meds to function after surgery. Today is day 7. How long does this pain last?

    Food!

    So I would be a big fibber if I said this week was easy. I am kinda falling apart, I am snapping at my poor husband but eat a cupcake (3) in front of a all liquid diet wife. I almost punched him, and his mom for sending them home with him! I just had a sugar free apple cider and walked away VERY grumpy. Only 3 more days of this! Then two more weeks, lol. I am off of my soap box and will realx about this, it's the beginning of my new life.

    Surgery Scheduled! October 19Th!

    I just got back from the dr. office and it's all scheduled for the 19th! I am so excited and nervous at the same time! I found out that I have to do the surgery OPEN since I had the band put in and removed lap/style, the dr. is not comfy doing it that way again from scar tissue. Hope OPEN style will be okay for the recovery! Help! If you read this comment for me!
  13. Alright, I have decided to go ahead with the sleeve. As a matter of fact I am scheduling it today with Dr. Kemmerling. I didn't think you could pay me to go back into surgery after my band removal, but my future happiness is too important to me. I want to be happy, healthy, and want a baby! I need this surgery. I will update with my surgery date later on today! Today!
  14. I just scheduled my surgery for the 19th! I have to do it OPEN! Anyone else have it OPEN?

    No Sleeve For Me!

    Okay, so I just had my band removed and it's the worst experience ever. I honestly don't want to have another surgery EVER. I have been scared before but nothing like this. I don't believe I am going to go through with the sleeve now, I don't want to go under again or have this much trama. Weird thing is I almost feel good about that decision!

    Today Is The Day!

    It's 5:22am and I don't have to leave for surgery till 8:30 and I can NOT sleep!! I am so nervous to get my band out, however, I am really excited! Hope my surgery goes well with no problems and no band erosion. Once this thing is out of me I can strat my 6 week wait for my sleeve (insurance pending) Wish me luck!
  20. Well tomorrow I get my band out! Excited and really nervous!

    Well...i Made It!

    Good luck keep us posted on your progress. Fingers crossed that it stops and water stays down.
  22. What I want! To see my feet without bending over! To shop at GAP or a Non-plus size store. To lift myself up onto the boat without help. To shave my "bikini" without having to move my fat roll. To see my face, god I want to see my jaw line so bad!!! To wear a tank top without thinking everyone is looking at my big arms. To have my shirt lay flat. To RUN!!! To Jump! This ALL WILL HAPPEN ONE DAY!! I KNOW IT WILL :)

  23. Friday is the big day! Band removal day. I was so excited till I started reading about all of the banders that had bad erosion and their surgery got pushed back 6 months to a year. I am so set on 6 weeks from Friday I can get the sleeve (insurance pending of course) but 6 months! Ahhhh. I know I am worrying about the unknown but I am stressing and just really want this sleeve. I really wish I would have done this earlier and not waited two years, gave more chance to erosion. Hopefully I will be able to sleep these next three nights! Heres to sleep filled nights and NO EROSION!!!!! Angela PS. If you read this comment for me- I love feedback and really need support!
