PSRS520

Nauseous all the time, after I drink my shake, my water, broth. Pain meds I rarely take, last one was Thurs. I go to dr tmrw so they can see what's going on. .. :/

My surgery was Jan 13th, so I'm exactly a week out! I'm so tired of the liquids and the nausea...

.

Thx. I sure do hope that this all gets better. Sometimes I get to the point of where I think I made the biggest mistake. I'm praying it gets better

Need ideas for soft foods. I start my soft food stage this coming Friday, so excited, as only having liquids sucks (4 days po)

I'm 4 days out and have diarrhea. Still only one liquids, so is my body just flushing out all the back up? Anyone else experience this? I alrdy talked w/my dr, said not to worry about it...just wanted info

Orry to hear that. That's very scary to read. I just got the lapband 4 days ago. Hope it all gets better for u guys, good luck.

Yesterday I followed up w/my Dr. And they didn't weigh me, said due to bloating it wld throw the chart off. Which was ok, as I feel so BLOATED. Dr came in, after examination he removed 1 1/2 cc of fluid from my band, which helped w/the shoulder pain because of gas. Hopefully it just gets better from here....

I'm starting to feel like I can't do it anymore. I'm so tired of shakes and broth, it's only been 2 days!! And I'm feeling hungry, I think. Or maybe it's gad cramps, idk. 2 days and I'm already tired. What am I to do

Good luck tmrw. Sending prayers for a speedy recovery. I'm 1 day post op. It's been a good journey so far. Good luck

Wow! I'm finally on the other side!! I feel sad, happy all at the same time. I'm in a little bit of pain, it's bearable though. Don't like the gas pain too much, although today is much better than yesterday. I had 1 protein shake this am, but couldn't finish it. Trying my best to follow the books. Any tips would be great....

Surgery went good! It's the after that's, ugh! Yesterday very sore, felt full of air/gas, did some walking a let 2 lil burps out. Took 2 pain pills which helped me sleep. Today still feel sore not as bloated, but still to early to tell... I'm happy I'm on the other side, just wanting the soreness to go away. Will do lots of walking today around my neighborhood

Thx. Yes yesterday was the big day. So for yesterday, I was very sore, full of air/gas, couldn't for the life of me get it out. Did walking and let two lil tiny burps out. Took 2 pain pills which helped knock me out. Today I'm sore, don't feel so bloated, it's still to early to tell...

Is what I'm feeling normal?? Me over thinking, me second guessing, me thinking I shldnt do it! Am I gonna starve? What if the pain is too much? Just breathe....

What vitamins do u take I've been on melt aways multi-vitamin for about 2 wks and started b12 last week

Is this something that all lap band patients go through? I was told of a lady that had it done, went strictly by the book, lost all her weight and now she wears a wig. Oh no!!!

I'm trying my best w/the pre-op diet, as for my jitters, omg worse than I thought!! I'm really thinking if I shld just put it off. But I know this is what I want and what I NEED to do. Thanks. I will put all updates on here

Just got the call w/my surgery time, Tuesday at 7am. What to do now...

How great, y'all doing it together, great support team. Good luck to all of u, best wishes. Keep me updated

Wow! Good job.

I know after the lap band surgery I'll have to take vitamins. I started to take vita-melt multi vitamin. I'm having trouble finding a chewable Calcium vitamin. Any suggestions? Also what other vitamins should I take. Any info will be greatly appreciated....

I'm so hoping for the same result. Good luck to you

Thank u so much

After surgery I know to drink Green Tea, and of course water. But what else is out there available for lap band patients...

My surgery is less than 2 wks away. In just 10 days I will be on the other side, in "band land" scared, nervous, anxious, just so ready....
