I got up the day after and traveled by car 61/2 Hrs. went to work the next day went grocery shopping and played with the kids and felt fine. Now I can not let my pain meds run out of my system it is way to painfull? Help suggestions please.

Hey Everyone,

Thanks for all the support! I feel great! I have already lost 11 pounds. Does it usually come off that fast?

I sure hope I feel like posting the same night. Wow, am amazed at you. I hope to join you soon in bandland and would give anything for an uneventful journey like yours. I'm one of those old ladies getting a band, so just about anything can and probably will go wrong :)

Good for you! Glad to hear you a feeling good. You were banded by Snyder, right? Just curious, what was his pre-surgery diet like? I'm seeing him 4/12 for a consultation - already went to the group seminar.

I had my surgery on March 6th and have lost 8lbs already. I am so happy I cant help but to cry from joy. I am having a rough day though. But i am getting through it. Some days I think oh my goodness what have I done. I am surrounded by good smelling food and I can not have any of it. AHHAHHAHAHHAHAH!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
