  1. I'm on day 10 of a liquid pre-op diet..it's been better than I had feared but I'm still hungry. I swear this diet is eating away my brain cells! It's hard to concentrate! My surgery is at 7 am tomorrow (June 3) and I'm both excited and nervous. I want to lose this weight once and for all, but it's still surgery and a big change to my relationship with food. Good luck to all my fellow June bandsters! This time tomorrow I'll be banded!!
  2. I have Kaiser, and the requirements were a history of unsuccessful weight loss attempts (check!), a high enough BMI (can't remember what specifically since I for sure qualified at 50), completion of a 12 week educational course, psychiatric clearance, chest x-ray and EKG, and a lot of labs. They also want you to lose 10 percent of your body weight but I learned from the surgeon they're not super strict on it, my surgeon said to just lose 10 or so pounds to shrink my liver and that was it. All the requirements make sense, though it's been frustrating how long everything has taken. I first made the decision to move forward with it last June; my surgery is (finally!) scheduled for 5/22/17. The longest delay was between my initial surgical consult in January until the end of March, which is when they finally got around to scheduling me.

    Post-op VSG pain

    Hi Everyone I am one month post op today (3/23/21) from my laparoscopic VSG surgery. Everything is going fine. I was a low BMI patient and my weightloss seems to be in the normal range with a -19 lb loss in the month so far. I am eating soft foods now and getting my 64oz of liquid in. My incisions have healed fine. However, a few days ago i started having intense pain about 2 inches above my belly button. Its continuous and very tender to the touch. It feels like a very painful bruise or a sore muscle. Has anyone experienced this? Its hard for me to wear my usual leggings because it sits right where that pain is. I was able to sleep on my stomach soon after surgery but not anymore. Any insight is appreciated. Lucy

    UHC DENIED - Need support

    I have UHC too and have been waiting...My plan is self funded with a trust from my work so they are like the providers....I had several very specific criterias...they told my dr office that there was NO coverage when I had given the doc's office a copy of the exclusionary policy...which I fit. At the time my only concern was if banding was an option since it said " stapling and bypass". As it turned out, I talked to someone at UHC in the "reconciliation" department ...sound Catholic to me lol .... She was very encouraging and got on a conference call with my doc's office. This was just for the initial consult!!!!! Anyway, then the luck and Lord was with me because I talked to my Benefits director,,,just to find out if banding had been covered or appealed....and was told as of 3/01/08 it would be included in the language!!!! Then, we were given the name of a claims person at UHC to send my file through so it wouldn't be held up due to the new language...that was as of 2 weeks ago...still waiting.... That's my muse!
  5. To put it kindly, your mom has issues. I'm sure this isn't news. LOL I think you have made a good decision. Get the band, do your best, and if you don't like the results, tweak what you are doing so you can do better. It's really that simple. As for the statistics you heard, remember that it is just an average. There are lots of people who lose all of their excess weight. I know a bunch of them. Others get within 10-25 pounds of their goal weight and are struggling to get that last bit off. Not a bad place to be, right? And of course there are those who don't lose much at all. But generally speaking, if you follow most of the rules most of the time, (and ignore your mom!!!!) you will be 50-100 pounds lighter in a year. And you'll be tons happier. We'll be here to support you all the way. Orea
  6. I don't think any of us said it was simple! I have the same trouble with carbs (insulin spike, etc.) that you mention. That was why I decided it was imperative that I get off of most of the sugars and white carbs. It wasn't easy! I had cravings for a good month, but I also found I felt a whole heck of a lot better when I avoided most of them. I think we can all agree that French Fries and white bread don't offer much nutritionally. And, to my surprise, I found I didn't miss them all that much! Anyhow, on to your question about the band long term. This is where the band excels. Not only are you able to keep getting adjustments as needed, forever, but bandsters tend to find that even when they stray, they don't gain it back nearly as fast as they did without the band. That 10 pounds gained over the holidays might just be one or two. Regarding band vs. bypass, studies show that after 3-5 years, the weight loss of the two groups evens out. It just takes a little longer with the band. A small price to pay for not having your insides re-routed, IMHO. So, if you are ready and willing to make the necessary changes, and your stress level is closer to "normal", go for it! If you follow most of the rules most of the time, you'll lose most of the weight. :-) Orea
  7. Thanks smarquezrn and orea, I am back on board and going to have the surgery. Im not ready for more radical surgery. Im not 100% how much good the lapband will be for me. It may help some but not as much as it helps others, but anything will be better than nothing. I woke up upset again with my mom and the part of the conversation we had about that stupid sub we share 4 ways on Sunday mornings. She wants me to help my sister cut back too and says that is twice as much sub as we need. Heck Gerald on the commercial has a whole 6 inch by himself to lose weight, but that way too much for us? No mayo, mostly salad stuff, I always ask for extra lettuce on it. My mom thinks 2 inchs of sub is all a portion should be. No wonder I have had food issues all my life. The news today is saying something like 1/3 of Americans either have diabetes or are at risk, I know that's me. Im close and will be in that catgory if I dont lose enough weight. The seminar did discourge me in thinking this will be an answer, I admit it, but any loss will be better than no loss. The lady running the seminar did lose 140 lbs on the band before she had problems and gained 45 lbs back because of bad reflux and changed to the gastic sleeve. She actually has written a book on her weight loss journey. She said its been documented that there are 10 foods that people on the lapband have trouble with, but everyone has problems with different of the foods, not the same ones. I found that interesting. I had been wondering why one person says they are eating salads but not popcorn and the next isnt eating salads, but says they are eating popcorn. Anyway, by last night I had emailed them back that Im 85% and today Im 99%, still have some reservations, but this is the only choice for me right now I feel. If later on they come out with a new way to lose weight, then its still possible and reversible. So, Yes Im going to do this. thanks for your words snowbird that you still eat some junk food, its not 100% off your diet. I cant do without 100% for the rest of my life, I know it. thanks friends. I needed some friends now and everyone in my life says "well I cant tell you what to do", no one seems to be there to talk to other than my mom who drives me nuts.
  8. Hey there, i also had 2 c sections and they are worse. The lapband for me was only painful due to gas, shoulder pain. I had pain for about 4 days then I was good to go. I hope you have a super easy time. Your banding is the day before my 19 year wedding anniversary :-)

    Upset

    So, to me, that does seem like it's a bit more than one would expect from an immediate post-op diet. That said, I only have my own experiences from which to speak and if this is the diet that your doctor prescribed, then they may have a reason. For comparison, here is the diet I am on currently (I hit 10 weeks post-op tomorrow), which is not really standard for most programs that I've seen: 2 times a week: Breakfast - 9am - 2 scoops of Celebrate 4-in-1 in 8oz of unsweetened almond milk + 2 tsp Benefiber (185 calories) Lunch - 1pm - 1 scoop of Celebrate 4-in-1 in 8oz of unsweetened almond milk + 2 tsp Benefiber (115 calories) Snack - 4pm - 1 protein bar (18-20g of protein -Think, Pure Protein, or Built Bar) (160-230 calories) Dinner - 7pm - 1 protein bar (18-20g of protein -Think, Pure Protein, or Built Bar) (160-230 calories) 60+ ounces of water (usually Crystal Light) (40 calories if all Crystal Light) 1 time a week: Breakfast - 9am - 2 scoops of Celebrate 4-in-1 in 8oz of unsweetened almond milk + 2 tsp Benefiber (185 calories) Lunch - 1pm - 1 scoop of Celebrate 4-in-1 in 8oz of unsweetened almond milk + 2 tsp Benefiber (115 calories) Snack - 4pm - 1 bottle of Premiere Protein protein water (20g of protein in 16.9 ounces of fluids) (90 calories) Dinner - 7pm - 1 protein bar (18-20g of protein -Think, Pure Protein, or Built Bar) (160-230 calories) 4 times a week: (up from 3x/week as of this week) Breakfast - 9am - 2 scoops of Celebrate 4-in-1 in 8oz of unsweetened almond milk + 2 tsp Benefiber (185 calories) Lunch - 1pm - 1 scoops of Celebrate 4-in-1 in 8oz of unsweetened almond milk + 2 tsp Benefiber (115 calories) Snack - 4pm - 1 protein bar (18-20g of protein -Think, Pure Protein, or Built Bar) (160-230 calories) Dinner - 7pm - 3-4.oz of allowable soft foods (I've had ground chicken, ground turkey, pureed chicken salad made with hummus & greek yogurt, ricotta bake, baked/steamed whitefish, scrambled eggs) (210 - 250 calories) So I think there would be room to make adjustments to your diet plan, as long as you would still be hitting your protein goals, but that is definitely a conversation you would want to have with your doctor. Simply be upfront with them about your concerns about the slow weight loss and ask for guidance on how to make changes to your diet plan to facilitate better results. Some times you have to make those changes to the diet plan in order to keep your body on it's toes!

  11. Hi LisaS73- I actually gained weight during my supervised WL appointments. I was told to start off with 1 shake then work my way up to 2 so I could prepare my body for the pre-op diet which is 3 shakes for 14 days (once it is approved by my insurance). It was very frustrating because on my last appointment, the doctor did not submit until I lost some weight. I was really upset because I thought I was doing everything right. It turns out that I wasn't eating enough calories. I was working out hard by doing cardio and strength training 6 days a week and the calories that I was taking in wasn't enough to burn fat. I was taking in 800 calories then I jumped to 1100 and that seemed to work for me. One thing that I have realized is everyone's body is so different. What works for one, may not necessarily work for others. I talked to the doctor and the Nutritionist and they gave me some helpful hints. The doctor gave me 2 weeks to show some sort of progress and when I went to weigh in I lost 10 pounds. So... He submitted my info. I know it can be frustrating, but keep trying and don't give up. Make sure you get your NUT and doc involved if you need new ideas. Counting calories and staying hydrated is important as well. Keep your eye on the prize. Good luck????

Any how it was HARD, one day I even broke down in tears, try to take it one day at a time and stay busy, go out somewhere around dinner time, to let the time pass. Im one week and one day out and ive lost 21 pounds I CANT believe it!!! Im still on liquid diet for 3 more weeks, I wasnt hungry at all the first 4 days after, now Im getting a little hungry but not tooo bad Good luck, u can do it

    Not Happening After all...

    @@ellie123, that's odd. I had my sleeve surgery 4/15. Not sure why it says 1999. Anyway, things are going well. I'm not a quick loser apparently, even though I had a pretty high SW. But it's been steady, about 2-3lb per week average. I'm down almost 65lbs since my surgery and feel great. Actually this is the best I've felt in probably 10 yrs.
  16. Hey guys. 5 days post op surgery was 10/31. I am having major gas pains and having a hard time pushing to pass any gas. I have been walking and it helps burp sometimes but this morning i was up for several hours with intense belly pains. Pain medicine doesnt touch the gas pains. Do yall have any suggestions on what else i can do? My nurses in the hospital wouldnt let me have stool softeners. I have called my surgeon to see if they recommen it but no word back yet. Also, was anyone allowed to wear some sort of stomach band like a splint to hold the incisions while walking so its not kinda hanging. Any advice or recommendations are much appreciated!

    New Spouse Of Patient

    Sorry I am new to forums also. After looking at slim fast I see it is short some protien. The surgeon says at least 15 g, slim fast is 10. So I could fix him an egg or something to go with it. This is 2 weeks pre- op, his bmi is 37.2 so he doesn't need to loose weight really. We are just trying to follow directions. We want to do this right, he has waited at least 8 years to get this done.

    Fallen off track

    Hello my Kentucky friend. I'm in Louisville and like you, I had my WLS 2 years ago and like you I suffer from anxiety and depression. I had a really hard time in March/April of this year and was suicidal for the first time ever and I was eating TONS and TONS of chocolate. I gained 10-12 pounds. But I stayed the course with my meds and kept seeing my therapist every 3 weeks and it's slowly helped. I started back on track 30 days ago and am losing weight again and have a better out look on life. Depression is real. It's tough. Hang in there. Don't give up what you worked so hard to get in the first place (weight loss) and try to focus on that when times are tough.
  21. I'm scheduled for Wednesday, Nov 19. PAT scheduled for Nov 4. I'm excited and nervous

    I didn't get to ride my bike today....yet. I might try to get it in after hubby goes to bed. I still don't like exercising in front of him. It was a pretty good day. I'm pretty used to not eating much now. In some ways I can see how being on this pre-op diet can be beneficial. Not just because of the weight loss but that when I am banded I'm already used to not eating hardly anything. Here's what I had today: (typical of everyday) whey protein shake 2scoops in 8oz slim milk 2 slimfast shakes (I'm allowed 3 a day but lately have only been drinking 2) 1 1/2 cups broccoli 1 cup butternut squash soup (90 cals) 1 1/2 cups stir fry veggies 1 diet Dr. Pepper That's around 1200 cals. And I'm really not hungry. The first few days of this pre-op diet I ate like three times as many veggies but not anymore. I'm actually not supposed to have soup but I've been eating progresso's hearty tomato and tried this organic squash soup. The squash soup is pretty nasty. I like squash. I've eaten a lot of it the past two weeks but the soup just wasn't right. It smelled like pumpkin pie and tasted like onion, garlic squash. It messed with my senses. I am so ready for my surgery date. Not much longer. I am on the downhill side now at least. Well, Goodnight. Hope everyone is doing good on their journeys!

    Rambling On

    I bring water as well, however i only take a sip every 10 laps and then a full swallow or two when i'm done to help me cool down .
  24. I have my surgery set for Monday Jan. 30th. @ 9am. I have to be at the hospital by 7:30am. I know i will eat again and I know I will eat everything o eat before the band just in a smaller more controlled portion. If this tool can help me with the snacking i do at night i am sure i will be succesful with it and with losing weight. will it stop me everynight no, wll it stop me 8 out 10 yeah probably i can live with that.
