Dilemma

dvons posted a topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums

I have been around goal weight plus minus 5-10 lbs for some time. I got my band in 2008. Had issues with dilated pouch/esophagus. They remove my fill liquid for 4 months, I gain weight. They put it back in and it's twice as hard to get back down the 20, 30 lbs. I do it but without some liquid in my band, I'm like an alcoholic but with food. I know this. Food is my weak point, my comforter, my vice. I try not to gain weight during that phase but so far I have lost the battle. I'm at goal weight and now I hear I might have to have liquid removed yet again. I have the opportunity to change to the sleeve. One doctor says do the revision, another says I may go underweight. What would you do if the band served you so well for many many years?

need to know about a physcian?

lauramomof3 posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

Does anyone know about a doctor named Chris Sanborn? He is coming to the Chattanooga, Tn area from a military hospital in Kentucky. Please anyone knows about him I need to know asap!! I have already had my surgery ,but I have a friend of mine that is needing surgery. This doctor is coming to the Chattanooga area and we need to know what his surgery results have been. My friend is very scared about the surgery period and then having to use a new doctor over the one that has been doing surgery in the area well over 10 years. So if there is anyone that knows anything about this doctor please let me know..

Is It Always Going To Feel Like I'm Dying?

susancwalker2008 replied to Shelleymb's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

It sounds like that may be some gas trapped in your chest. It will go away, but still just let your dr. know. I am 5 weeks post op and I had that for about 10 days post op. I used gas x strips and phazyme tablets, which are tiny. This helped a ton. Make sure you are drinking enough water also. Sips not gulps. I hope this helps. I know it sucks, but NO it wont last forever. You'll be happy you did this. My stomach IS very noisy if I haven't eaten past 5 hours though. Its pretty funny, at least my kids think so. Hope you feel better.

Midnight munchies

vessa posted a topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums

I wake up, "Oh! its an awesome beautiful day! I have a great band and i'm losing weight and I'm exercising and in love with the world." Eat great all day, take care of new baby...husband works third, leaves at 9:30, baby is asleep for the night by 10. I think, "Now I can relax, piss around on the internet, wind down." And then I fall into this thing where at least 3 days out of the week I will go binging. And of course, it leads to nothing but puking and feeling like crap and finally falling asleep disappointed in myself...etc. It seems so simple, I know I shouldn't, I know I'm tired after being up with the baby all day, I know i'm bored and probably should go to sleep, an I know this behavior is wrong and could lead to trouble if not rectified. BUT KNOWING ISN'T DOING! So, if anyone has some tips on what they do to wind down, rather than falling into old habits late at night, please share.:ranger:

This is a real mind snarl. I still do the same thing to myself. I KNOW I should go to the gym. I know I should take my suppliments and eat more veggies. All I can say is---THank God for my sleeve. Scarey? you bet. So glad I went thru with it? Oh yeah. This is the best thing I have done for myself. EVER. It is the tool I needed to get the weight off even though I am NOT perfect at it. So, give yourself a break, fight the fear and get the 20 gone so you can get the help you need. Stay away from the gym. Just go for a walk 2X a day. 5 or 10 min.each. Be easier on yourself. Breathe, smile, live.

Sleeved on Jun 20/2013...lost & sad.

misslucy replied to karenoconnortx's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story

Hang in there. I have read on other forums stories of people, many people who actually gained the week of surgery. Talk to your surgeon and nutritionist. They may have ideas for you. I spoke with mine this week about my weight loss since surgery, he was very happy with my loss and explained that I will probably lose more quickly when I get back to normal daily activity. I do not know what diet plan they have recommended, I follow a 70g protein diet. I eat my protein first and may have a bite or two of a veggie, if I have room after protein! I have protein shakes in between meals. Good luck, I know it is hard, week 3 I only lost 2 pounds and I was devastated! We all lose differently but we have all had the same emotions at one point!

preop diet and slimfast

SusieQ1964 replied to healthysue's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

Hi Healthy Sue, I used Slim Fast Protein Shakes. I had to lose 10% of my weight before surgery. I started drinking the shakes 3 times a day and lost 30lbs in 6 weeks before my surgery. I still drink a shake a day for the protein I have lost 60lbs and I was banded March 11,2008. Good Luck! I know you will be successful. Susie Q 1964

Too much WL?

mominkansas posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

I went in today for a possible unfill. I am sliming after meals and wanted to make sure I wasn't doing damage. I was there about 9 days ago and have lost 10 pounds in the 9 day. The tech said that was far too much weight to have lost and seemed concerned. Total since my surgery I have lost about 42 pounds. He did not unfill me surprisingly enough. He said if I were sliming in between meals he would have but felt that my band was the best he had ever seen it. Anyone else been told that they are losing too much too fast?

So I fired my WL Surgeon!

Infernored replied to myrori's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

The receptionists at my office were pretty rude too. I would be standing in front of them for 10 minutes before they would even look up at me. My husband was pissed and we told my doc's personal secretary who does all the surgery scheduling and insurance stuff. She admitted that they had alot of complaints and that she was sorry and they were working on it. It got a bit better over the past few months.

Should I tell my OA food sponsor?

rosstheboss replied to khath0620's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums

Hi Katie: I have been in and than out of OA it is a great program, but as a guy I find it hard to relate to the few other guys. Anyway. I think you should tell her, the band is just another tool as is OA in this life long battle. She has no right to be critical. I agree that it may not be something to shaire at meetings but if asked you may want to shair your expernece. One thing I was told after getting the band is that one should also be involved in some sort of support like WW, OA Etc. Personally I dont just tell everone, if I am talking with some one who is heave and asks about my weight loss I will shair about the band. Congradulations on your weight loss, personally I can get a bit hard on myself and this is alot of work. I am down 60/lbs since getting the band almost 2 years ago. I hope to loose another 10 or so but it has been alot of work, but I am hoping as it has taken so long that hopfully this time it I will be able to keep it off. OA Does teach you alot. Good luck. ross I have been in OA coming up on 2 years in June. I struggled initially with the program and ultimately decided I needed a little more help for my compulsive overeating. I was banded May 2010. I am down down about 50 pounds and have just started with a new OA food sponsor. She seems really cool and open minded but I am nervous about telling her about my band. Not sure if I am afraid of criticism or what. I don't feel a need to share in the meeting but I almost feel like I am lying to her if I don't tell her alone. Any thoughts? Thanks, Katie

Driving myself 3 hours to my surgery

Dawn10314 replied to MrMom's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

I had mine put on 2 days ago and could not imagine driving OR going back to work at this point! I'm not supposed to drive for 10 days and after 1 night in the hospital, I fell asleep in the car on the way home!

Carrie replied to MustangAli's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

My doc advises to look for food choices that have less than 10 grams of sugar and 10 grams of total fat instead of counting calories. If each meal has 10/10 then you are looking at 30 grams of sugar and 30 grams of fat per day. Do that and drink as much water as you can handle. I read somewhere the reason they make us drink so much freaking water is because it flushes the fat out. Worth a shot at this point. Best of luck to you!

He says lapband is horrible...Go w/ Bypass!!

brandyII replied to a topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums

When I started researching on why I might be having problems with my band I came across Dr. R.'s site and it listed hundreds of issues that people had with the band so it made me feel like maybe I screwed up because I got the band. Now I realize he was just trying to sell himself. I then found this forum and have learned that a lot of it has to do with my restriction and what I'm eating/not eating etc... So I'm happy I got the band because I still think the other is more drastic and scary to me even though my 19 year old is having gastric bypass surgery next month. Of course I worry like hell for her but it's her decision and she's researched it and seems to be happy with her choice and her surgeon. So all we do is support each other.:smile2:

How did you find out you were approved

MrMom posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

My wife is about 10 days post op and she was notified by the surgeons office. Then we received written notice from our insurance some days later. I got my approval letter in the mail on Friday, but have not heard from the surgeons office. I'm hoping to be banded by the end of May.

1st meeting with md and have questions

violeteyes37 replied to sunshine6855's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

Experience is very important but you also have to consider the travel time. What if you are having some type of complication or another and cant get there? Plus like you said he has done gastric for 10 years. In my opinion, it seems doing a lap band would be a piece of cake for him. Plus he wouldnt have been certified if he didnt know what he was doing. Another thing to think of is that he is not going to be the only one in the room. Im sure someone else though they may not be the one doing the surgery have seen one done and could assist him if the need be.

1st meeting with md and have questions

conniecash replied to sunshine6855's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

The lap band is different than other surgeries, I would find someone more experienced. I have a surgeon only 10 minutes from my house but he has only done around 300. The surgeon I chose has done 3,000 and is 1 hr away. Go with experience!!

Not So Supportive Spouse

Jodi_620 replied to marathonmommy's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

I am sorry to hear that he is not being supportive. Do this for you first, also do it for your kids and husband. It is an improvement on your health and well being and trust me, that will far outweigh the food restrictions. My quality of life and my health have both improved so much in the past 10 months and that is refelected on everyone close to me. The few close family members who were not behind me in the beginning are my biggest supporters now. They were concerned about the risks but now they see the benefits. Good Luck!

LAN2k replied to erh92's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

I have been going to OA meetings since shortly after my surgery. I find it very helpful. I attend a fairly large group on Saturday mornings from 10-12 noon. It helps me to be around people who are dealing with how they emotionally relate to food and eating. I give it a thumbs up.

Tomorrow is the big day!!!!

happyslvr replied to knoxmom's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

It will work honest! I felt the same way though and seriously without even trying that hard at all I am 19 lbs away from my goal and its only been a little bit over 3 months! and the BEST part!!!!! I wont gain it back this time!!! woo hoo!!

wishing i had a better DR

hollyncharm commented on hollyncharm's blog entry in Blog 35981

so i asked the rep at my insurance co all the questions i was suppose to and i got really excited cause it does cover lap band and i am eligible but its for people 21 and over. I'm only 19. i hate that!!!! I'm only 19!!!! aw so she told me that if my Dr write them telling them that i have been obese for the past 5 years and such and that i cant wait i must have it now then i can but my Dr sucks and he wont do it. my Dr's office is like a clinic, they rush you in and around and back out and don't even bother with your name. I'm pretty sure he isn't going to understand and isn't going to let me do it. i feel so let down. i really don't know what to do. i have had my heart set on this and now i don't know what to do.
