Shellysmom

Banded on 9/17 (dad's bday) UP: lost 22 pounds since banded.:crying: DOWN: Hungry :thumbup: UP: Can fit my old "fat" clothes :smile2: DOWN: Hate the idea that I spent money buying fatter than fat clothes :crying: UP: People notice - attention :thumbup: DOWN: People notice - too much attention!! (I'm shy) UP: Family wedding in 2 weeks - I can wear one of my nicer outfits :smile: DOWN: Still won't be allowed to have solid foods. I get to have soft mushies at the end of next week. Boo. :mad2:

No more itching. It was the anesthesia. And the itchy scabs was the adhesive. Once the adhesive was off my skin... I had instant relief!

I had an endometrial ablation to take care of the excessive bleeding... BUT I'm older and not planning on having kids.

I already have Benadryl to sleep...not for allergies. So yes, I am taking something. I think my itching is related to the anesthesia and the scabs under the adhesive sutures. Once those scabs come off, I think it will be better. But it's crazy, my head itches, my face itches, my back etc.. I don't think I have ever scratched my body so many times. I haven't scratched so hard that I damage skin, but it's kind of crazy.

I'm itchy - post anesthesia I think. Hungry... after 2 week liquid diet and clear liquids for the last several days. And wanting to know what other stuff I can have besides water, boullion, sugar free jello, sugar free non carbonated drinks, and clear protein drinks?

Hi Annmarie, I'm in CV. I'm new now. Just got banded 9/17. Sore, excited, and hungry. Rene :thumbup:
