Thanks so much Magnolia! I have sent a friend request to ya in that we are similar in banding dates and age. I love your mushy ideas. Mine were a bit vague but I am definitely gonna try your ideas. Thanks a million!

Restless you are indeed a motivation to me. I am five days post- op and every question that has come to mind you have posted a response to it somewhere. I too am a "scooter hater" and am looking forward to being able to move without pain and for longer times.

THE PLOT:I had my surgery on the 28th. I am a big girl with a BMI of 63. I am just moving into eating some mushy stuff. Here is where I need help. I am feeling hungry and then I feel like I should eat and my hubbie (who is a "not following the rules" band holder) says I can't have this or that . Then I get to feeling like maybe I can't do this. Maybe I am destined to be a big eater forever. Bt my weight truly interferes with my career path and ability to get around. Just need a word from someone. :frown::frown::frown::frown::sad::frown::crying::frown::crying::frown::crying::frown::crying::frown::crying::frown::crying::frown::crying::frown:

Mine was the 28th as well. Mostly my pain is near the port. It feels like I am stretchong or pulling it everytime I move. Gettin up and down (from the bed, toilet, couch ) sem to be the worst. I also am still using the gas-x strips. I am not sure why but I still am having a bit of gas that seems to aggravate a bit. You're in my prayers.

Me too! I got to leave at 3 my time to get to the hospital on time. I am so nervous i can't sleep! Best wishes and you will be in my prayers.

Surgery on the 28th as well. Best of luck

My surgery is tomorrow, and I am a nervous wreck :crying:. I have never had any surgeries other than 2 c- sections. Some how this is different. I guess cause this is really about myself. You guys are in my prayers, and remember me in yours.

Thanks for the vote of confidence. It has been extremely tough because I am a carb-oholic. No pasta, no bread has caused me to have to pray harder and my family to duck and cover faster:lol:!

Hello Everyone. I am so excited! My surgery is tomorrow! I am a bit nervous about the "liver" thing. I have really did good sticking to the all liquid diet. I have had absolutley no carbs and only a nibble of meat twice:frown:. I am so looking forward to starting my life over. Good luck to all. You are in my prayers, and I ask that I am in yours.
