Well if it is any comfort, I was banded 3/1 and I don't go back till june 19th for I hope 1st fill. I did find out the Doc had put 1cc in because the band was not snug enough, seems that is rare for him to do also. But I am getting hungery now, :faint:

Glad your feeling better!!!! :clap2: I too had the dry heaves, for almost 8 hours after.. know what ya feel like!!! I at least got out all my gas made it worth something,,, great job on the weigh loss!!! :clap2: :clap2: :clap2:

Actually it is fat, fourty fertile and fair!!

Dody, I know this sound funky, but a little old foot dr I went to,(thought HE needed a scooter) lol said yep yur weight has alot to do with this, I havethe same as you plus heel spurs I coud catch marlins with! he told me to get heel spur holes, foam pieces with hold in which the mid part of heel sits inside shoe with, and to get just a plain pair of arch supports like scholls, I am amazed how well it worked!! I had paid all this money for insurts in shoes, not to mention cost of expensive shoes, and a combined cost of 15 did the trick for me!! I do have new balance just because I am a nurse also and they have are wider and have a bigger toebox, (can't stand toes to be crowded !) lol

Hi Five!, ahhh good one!! I rhymed, and to you that is great on the 20 llbs!! If you are doing all the exercise yes it is probably muscle. another thing is when you exercise that much you actually need to increase your calories. I think you are doing fantastic!! don't get discouraged, I have seen people on here that have been 1 year out and only lost 40 or less total! Yor body is still adjusting to this new way to live... good luck!!!

Yep that is an allergic reaction, benadryl, or even dimatapp both in liquid form, Sister here with me is a dermatoligist nurse, says it looks like it is a reaction, Infection you would start some form of discharge...but still do cal lpcp

My long incision is on the left, and I am 13 days out, still bloated, no hunger yet, soooo tired of liquids. my other incisions most seem almost healed, but the large one think it is the port.I feel like some puppeteer just randomly "yanks" me back every now and then... but hey! I get to start mushies!!!!

Here I am 11 days out, only incision pain has been the port the last few days.:clap2: Still can not bend over well. I am soooo tired of liquids, am ready to move on to the next phase,:faint: I want to be a normal person, not a recovering one. I go back to the leg Dr. on the 14th, maybe that will change. Hobbeling around more. still can not put all weight on it. it is to weak. ready to get out of the big black roboboot!!!

I'm in texas, I am a cardiovascular tech,RRT do specials procedures cathlab and vascular studies In a job where I get to tell the doc when he can do HIS job, Love power lol!! out of 3 million of RT's there are only 15,000 of us,,

I haven't told anyone at work, had to do some std paperwork and they saw my iv tape lines( they take forever to come off!!) said while I was off had some healthtest done, endoscopy, since thy know they use iv for test, no one has said a thing. I work witha large group of nurses, in close quarters. didn't say because of other pts that come in with wls, they have commented on after they have left. so it would be the same for me. I am comfortable in this as I loose I will just say changing lifestyle and eating to be healthier..

10 cc band, I have that one,,,, room to grow!!!

there is a book superflirt for real???

oooh new shoes, didn't think of that, !! I was ina joking mood, but in reality I think I am afraid of who will be the new me, and oooh to be in my twenties again!!! just if I begin to "look" for possibles, will I seem like an attack queen? lol thought it was a food for thought/

HI there congrats!! I am only 7 days post op but as a cardiovascular cath lab personal, I know what you look like inside !! lol yes by all means stop the smoking, ask for patch of wellbutrin, helps with the craving, smoking is a biggie for getting you back in the cathlab for another stent.. not preaching, just stating, I love my job, just don't like to see people coming back, like the social plan, standing up bringing healthy things to eat and visit.:hungry: notice I said healthy lol! As I am new on this journeyI also have alot to learn, but after seeing all I see it scared me to do this for me. contact anytime if you have any questons!!:clap2:
