Surgery Was Today



Recommended Posts

Today I had my lapband surgery!!! I feel good, a little tender. While in surgery, my surgeon found that I had a hiatal hernia so that was repaird as well. My experience has been good. Right after surgery I was extremely nauseous and was given something at least 4 to 5 times to help. I was also allowed to continue to sleep to help me with it. My surgery was at 8:00 AM and I was out of the hospital by 3:45. I am so fortunate to be able to begin my "new life" today. I began in the beginning of July when my sister and I went to a seminar. She is still going through the process. At times it seemed like the day would never come, now that it has come I can't believe it and wish everyone good luck.

Good luck to you. Please keep up posted. I'm still completing apps per insurance requirements but maybe in a couple of months.

Congratulations..........Good for you.

I had my surgery yesterday and I haven't had any nausea, I guess I'm lucky. I did guzzle some Water too fast last night......the pain right below my breast bone will teach you not to do that.

Good luck to us.

      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! 😞
