    Hiccups

    I got a fill yesterday and have had the hiccups ever since. Have anyone ever felt like that. I wonder if it will go down once the swelling has went down.

  8. Hey Dooney,

    I'm doing pretty good no soreness or anything. Just bummed that i have gained a little of my weight loss back now that I'm eating food. Hopefully it will even out with me working out. I go to the doctor on the 22nd i'm not sure if he will give me a fill.

  9. Hey Dooney

    How are things going?

  10. HI everyone I go to my first appointment after my surgery on the 22nd. My doctor stated that he may or may not give me a fill. I was kinded of fluster by this considering i don't have anything in my band currently and i will be 4 weeks out. Can anyone tell me when they knew they needed a fill. I'm going to push for one anyway.
  11. Renee, I was on post op for one week of just liquids and protein up until the day before surgery when I could only have liquids.
  12. Hi I have hypothyrodism and I have lost 22lbs.
  13. I start my morning with decaf coffee and half and half.
  14. I was just curious if anybody eats chips? If so what kind? I use to absouletly love chips just wondering if anyone trys the baked kind.
  15. Hey Dooney,

    Hang in there we will get through this. I went to my pcp yesterday and had my blood work ran and she ordered a chest xray so i'm just waiting for the results. Yesterday I was able to start with the cream products. The only problem I was literally at both doctors appointment all day so i had not drunk or eaten anything by 4pm. So went I got home i made me some very creamy grits and I ate about 4 ozs. After that I was so full i didn't intake anything else. i know I got to do better

  16. Hey Dooney, I'm doing pretty good just have pain at the port like u also. I'm also having some heaviness in my chest I'm going to see my pcp today so I will mention it. How are you doing with the protein? I'm having a hard time getting it all in because I'm just not hungry.

  17. Hi All had my surger 10/19/10. Everything went well I ended up staying over night and released yesterday. I had to be at the hospital at 7:45AM and was taking to the operating room at 9:25AM woke up in recovery about 12 noon. I walked around alot to move the gas. Today I'm still bloated with some discomfort around the port area with gas. I do have some pain in my left chest area. The pain meds do seem to be working. I will continue to push through.

    Clock ticking down... 19th

    @dooney I'm getting banded on the 19th which is our special day. The preop diet was a struggle for me last night i was dizzy and shaky but I just reminded myself how worth it this is. Keep up the good work we can do it!
  19. Did anyone get dizzy and shaky during preop diet? Today is my third day on the pre op diet.
  20. I was just wondering if anyone was able to wear their spanx after surgery. My spanx have become such a part of me, I wear them everyday. I was just wondering if anyone had problems with them after the surgery?
  21. @jennaj221 Your right about the slight part it's very convient I wear the high power but I never have a hard time getting mine up.

    Pre Op Diet Day 1

    Today I started my 7 day pre-op diet. I must say that I was a little nervous. I wondered how I would tolerate the supplements. Today I had a banana protein shake by bariatric advantage that wasn't bad for breakfast. For lunch I'm sipping on a whey protein shot mixed with some water and very little crystal lite to bear the taste. For dinner I will have broth, jello and water with special k protein mix to get my 60 protein in for the day. It was shaky at lunch because someone in my group had chicken and I wanted to smack them. (joking) We will see how the day continues, I'm constantly reminding myself how excited I will be to look back at this in a couple of weeks to see my progress.:cursing:
