Hi Nolar, For some reason, I thought you were a man. I don't know why more men don't have lap band.

Thanks to everyone. I have struggled in recent days with the adjustment to what I can and can not hold down. I've had a number of episodes recently where I've had PBs....you can see the countdown to launch going on inside my stomach...and the tough part...is does not stop until you are completely empty. I'm in a very high stress and highly public job so I have to be very careful about what i eat and where.....and I don't need security to scope out a location where I will be....i always know where the exits and the restrooms are whenever I have to eat somewhere :-) Keeping the faith....go get'em guys. 1 day at a time.

Its weird...I'm one of the few guys. This has been a wonderful experience to date.

had my first fill this past wednesday. non event. I was in and out in about 15 minutes. Lot of PBing this weekend...but mostly my fault. taking it easy today.

Banded May 25. Had my first fill this past wed the 22nd. I've lost 30lbs to date. trying to figure out how to get the tickerfactory ruler on my posts.....forgive me for not knowing and/or remembering.

Can somebody remind my how to get my tickerfactory ruler on all my posts?

What food stage are you at? What are you eating?

Banded on May 25. Right smack in the middle of this liquid crap. Thank god for egg drop soup. Had a clam broth soup yesterday that went down very well....almost like miso soup for those of you who eat sushi. I'm sick of those damn shakes....but I'm about to go and make one right now so that I can take my vitamins -
Damn...they got your ass outta there pretty quick :-) Take the nausea medicine and get some rest. Monday will be a week for me. I'm sick of these damn liquids, but I have another week to go. Hang in there.

You go girl! I had mine on May 26th and I'm still in pain. I take Rx every 3-4 hours. I cant wait to walk my dog around the block. I have some gas pain and incision pain as well. I look like Freddy Krueger got a hold of me...LOL Are you wearing a abdominal belt? If so, how long were you instructed to wear it? How many hours?
-
I am so glad to hear that. I am literally 36 hours away from the procedure Monday morning the 25th. I am thinking only one more day of this liquid diet until my surgery....then i will have to set new goals to get through it. I'm pleased to hear you two days out and feeling ok. Wish me luck guys....

Count me in guys....I'm taking the plunge on May 25th first thing in the morning. -
Is anyone keeping their surgery a secret?
NOLAR replied to Dreamjeans's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Only wife daughter and secretary. They are in the best position to be supportive. I will tell a couple of close friends after the surgery....but its really a personal issue. And if you tell them you have had to change your eating habits for long term health...you don't have to worry about not telling the truth. -

I've been keeping track of the many threads over the past several months and I've decided to pull the trigger. I go in Monday morning for an outpatient procedure. I'm well into the liquid diet preop and just finished yet another delicious protein shake...good lord. Just counting down the days.
