Just Got Banded On The 23Rd !!!



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone my name is Rocky . I got my band on Monday and it took 6 hours to put in ?? Anyway I had a lot of gas but that has since died down a lot and the gas pain is pretty much down . I was wondering I still feel hungry a lot is that normal ? I'm only eating Jello Water and tea and I had Soup twice just broth .

hi rocky i got my lapband done on the 24th jan and the wind pain has been terrible and also very stingy pain over the port cut still when i sit up from or turn over in bed but im following the book i got from the surgeons office called fork knife and band and you should be having 6 half cups of thin Soup or smoothies or Optifast shakes a day now plus you can have tea and coffee as well but small cups.i cooked up Soups and blended them and they are very satisfying and full of nutrients as well so try a bit more so you dont have to feel hungry.

I use either muscle milk light or proti-diet protien drinks. Depending if I want a shake type drink or a fruit type drink.

      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! 😞
