I gained something like 10 pounds from the surgeries IV's.........it will pass soon enough.

BLOAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hello everyone: For the past few days I have been very bloated in the afternoons. I am still on liquids so nothing has changed there. It is just that I get major "gas" pain right below the band....But it is not gas per se. I have walked every afternoon for about 45 minutes and it does not go away... Pepcid and Gas-X does nothing for it either.... Any suggestions????

What you are feeling is gas pains...get some Gas X strips. They help considerably. ALso, walk around a bit in the house. That will help as well. Good luck....we are in this for the long run!!!!!!!!!!

How long does it take to lose the wight i gained fron surgery??? Ni kidding, I gained 14 lbs in the hospital probably from all the IV's I was given.

Post op diet is Liquid Protein for two weeks. I am allowed to have broth once a day. Since I am lactose intolerant, I mix my Bariatric Advantage (love it) Protein powder with soy milk which makes them really thick. I am tring to get more calories into me. I have no probelms getting all of the shake down as my constiction does not seem bad right now. Ant. ( I am a fish biologist...thus ichthyology!!!).

I really like Braitric Advantage. They make great protien shakes. I mix mine with soy milk, as I am lactose intolerant. The soy makes the shakes extra thick wich is realy nice.

I am tow days post banding. I have NO energy at all today. Yesterday was fine until I got home from the hospital. Slept from 5 PM to 7 AM. Got up and tried to take a walk but could not do it. All I wanted to do is sleep. Came home and slept another 5 hours. Now, an hour later I can barely keep my eyes open. What the heck is going one? Anyone else had this problem!!!!!!!

The problem I have today is that I have NO energy. AFter my morning post I went for a walk and could barely do it. All I wanted to do is sleep. Came home and slept for another 5 hours. It seems that I just cant wake up!!!!!!!! Anyone else have this problem.

My problem today is that I have no energy. All I want to do is sleep. I took a short walk this morning and only lasted 15 minutes. Came home and slept another 5 hours.... It seems that yesterday I so much more energy. Today, no energy what-so-ever.
