I am back from getting banded in Mexico



Recommended Posts

My surgery was Tuesday 25th of Nov and it all went great.

Dr.Kuri is the best! He came in to see me 3 times yesterday to see how I was doing and then discharged me this morning around 9 am and the came back once again to say good bye.Very caring man!

I stayed at the older facility he uses in TJ and I had to admit I was scared of the place but all fears are gone. The hospital staff was great to me and very acomodating to my mother who stayed with me a room that had 2 beds in it.

I am more sore today than yesterday but I think it is because I won't sit still and I still have some gas pains going on.

It is so weird to think I have not eaten anything in 2 days- well I guess tea and Jello count for something.

Well thansk everyone for all the great info given here at this board and for all the nice words before I went off to surgery.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
