Things You Can't Do Once Banded



Recommended Posts

I was just watching an episode of Dr G. It turned out the victim was a drug mule and died from one of the packages of cocaine, that he had ingested ,bursting.

My first thought?

Well that's one job you can't do once you're banded! I mean imagine trying to swallow those with a band in place.Even worse would be getting stuck and then going to the Dr for an unfill, especially if it was done under fluoro.

NB.This was not something I had or ever would consider.

So are there any other things weird or wonderful that anyone can think of that you can't do once banded?

      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! 😞
