Your port incision will have a lump,as that is your port. As it gets filled, it will get rounder and harder. You will have at least 2 small acrs adn 1 larger scar, they will almost disappear but your port one will be prominent for awhile -
I shopped Goodwill stores and end of season sales. 2nd hand stores have lots of nice stuff if you are selective. Also, there check out clothing exchange here in this forum. Best wishes, Karen Also, instead of using food as a reward, try anew pair of pants or a shirt.

I agree, sometimes I can fell my port pull and i am almost 4 years out!

Where did you hear about the "kink" in the band? I have never heard of this. What kind of symptoms do you have? I have had 2 slips, one that needed a revision operation. Best wishes on your problem. Karen

I stay away from corn as my hubby is allergic. But we did love it before. I was good with cream corn after surgery!

Best wishes, and like CG said, see you on the other side of your surgery!

Happy birthday, NO cake for you, but celebrate your new life instead!

Follow your doctor's rules! CG doctor is HER doctor.

So My First "Escape from the House" ----Still Paying For That
kll724 commented on tigers1998's blog entry in The Funny Side
I only went with my husband, and then tried to be real careful. I did not want to hurt myself! We slow walked thru Walmart. -
Hi happytolap! How are you doing?

Where is the port, exactly?
kll724 replied to aviva1979's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
That would be your port, area! -
I have a fruit, and protein shake in am, and then cheese, or tuna salad, or chicken salad for lunch. For dinner I have,usually, fish and maybe a veggie.

Smiling for you! Awesome NSV! Buy some new shorts on your son's dime! And the shorts didn't get big, you got smaller!!!
-
Wow! Great NSV! Unlike the others I was about 120 when I got married, and it wasn't in a long wedding dress. But I am sure, it would still be too small as I have never been that small again. Congrats, to all you brides who either can make it into your small wedding dress, or to all of you who don't want to EVER fit into your wedding dress again!
-
Yes, the band is a tool. You still have to work it!
-
24 years ago, I had to have my wedding ring cut off. For Christmas this year, I had it put back together so I could wear it again! I have not had it off since then! NSV"s are the best!
-
NSV!!!Congrats on the size!
-
Yes, to everything being said. I was a size 9/11 in high school, and felt fat! Even my home ec teacher had me join TOPS because I was borderline, chubby! Now, if I was a junior 9/11, I would be skinny! I was down to 8, now a 10. Everyone told me I was too skinny at 8. I am trying to get back into my 8's now! But 10 is okay, too!

Not enough calories post op?
kll724 replied to colorado_chick's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Add more protein calories to your drinks. Try Gatorade, or Special K. The idea is not nec. using diet drinks if you need calories. I could never quite understand the surgeon saying sugar free. I guess this will sound radical to most of you! Just my opinion, so not to be taken as a FACT!!! Karen -
All great ways to get mind off food! To Solracspree, your art is gorgeous! If I was as talented as you, I would be penciling all the time!
-
Great NSV! Congrats! New clothes are always welcome for me!
-
Be careful, and don't do damage to your band. calm down, you might be hungry, but you should not be eating solids so soon after your surgery. best wishes, please check your instructions for eating. Karen
