Surgery Was A Success!!!!



Recommended Posts

I am not sure what plication is. I will google it and get back to you!

And by restriction I mean restricted foods... No getting stuck, no pbing, I don't know. I'm talking to my surgeon today hopefully I will make a decision! It's less invasive like the band but hasn't been aroun as long...

Ya. Maintaining the weight loss is the hardest for me. I kinda feel like the restrictions to our diet will be minimal once we achieve "goal" weight. But it's gonna be a long journey for me to get there cuz I need to lose about 130lbs! Lol. I wish you the best in what ever decision you make. Keep us posted.

Thank you for replying. Right now I need all the encouragement and positive feedback I can get!

Well we had the big talk! I am decided! Plication it is! The band is great too, but for the above reasons I chose plication. Also the dr who would have done my fills lives 2 hrs away ( I'm from a small town). So I was worried I I ever needed a emerg unfill what would I do?? So there it is... Honestly I'm excited and relieved that I made a decision!

The lapband forum is way better than the plication one though and there are some wonderful people on here so I am still gonna creep lol

I'm doing quite well, still a little pain/discomfort where my port is, but other than that I'm doing ok. I really don't have much of an appetite, I still drink broth, I'm on sherbet now.

      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! 😞
