  1. I had surgery on the 28th. I think things are going well. Walked today for the first time since surgery. Didn't go as far as normal the dog thought I was confused but overall went well. Just want somone who is going through similar issues to share with, laugh with and occasionally cry with.
  2. I am a night shifter as well. I just was banded on the 28th and have not yet returned to work. Before surgery I ate at 5 pm 2-3 am and 5 am. give or take. I am an er nurse so it didn't always work perfectly. When I switched back to sleeping at night I would eat at 5 am and then force myself up by 1 so I could eat lunch and dinner by 6 pm. I hope that makes sense. I work sun through tues or wed depending on the week so switching is easier than if I worked every other day. I will let you know if this works now that I am banded. Email me if you like at rnvegas@hotmail.com

  5. Hi Just wanted to introduce myself...My name is Rebecca and am having surgery on the 28th. I have 110 pounds to lose and am excited about this journey. I have 5 children and would love to meet other bandsters!
  6. My name is Rebecca and started this approval process in Oct...Have to love insurance companies! Will talk to my Dr in the AM to schedule my surgery! Hoping for April 28! I am 252 pounds and ready to make a new start!
  7. I know think that you lied but why do you not want to tell people about the surgery? It is a tool to help you loose weight not the end all. I would have said that I had the lap band and with that and diet and exercise I have been able to to accomplish this. Only because of how many people dont think of surgery as an option. Just a thought. Hope you have a great day. Rebecca
  8. I am having surgery either the 21 or 28 of April. I am so excited but a little anxious which I know is normal. I am ready to be a to do things I like to do with out my knees hurting....Best of luck. Rebecca
