Friday December 21st start of a new me.



Recommended Posts

My surgery is the 21st. I thought I would be nervous or excited or something more than what I am. I think I have wanted this for so long and I am finally getting it. I am just ready to start building a better me.

Good luck and congrats! I completely understand the lack of excitement. I'm post op day 6 now. Still not excited! I feel like it will come when I start actually losing the weight idk though. Haha. Right now the only feeling I'm experiencing is being nervous. I'm afraid to do something wrong and cause my band to slip or throw up. I know it's noun to happen but I really don't want that feeling!

That's probably how I will be as well. Just waited so long to finally have this opportunity I don't want to do anything to mess it up once I have it.

Hey- I too am being banded on the 21st! My husband was banded on 12/12. He's doing fine. Things certainly look different around dinner time, but no had this done to remain the same! Lol. Each day is a blessing, embrace eac step of the journey!!

Yeah that's really how I feel. My hubby was banded 2 weeks before me. And by week 2 he was on solids. Not suppose to be but he's so stubborn and was cranky he needed food. I can't scold him. He would do it behind my back. I can only support him and make sure he chews it up till it's purred. Which he's doing pretty good. He's had a couple of stuck episodes from eating too fast but he's learning.

Well everything went really well showed up at 7:30. Think it was about 9 when they took me back. Was back home by 1:00. Feel pretty good. Have been able to drink broth and my Protein share this morning

      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! 😞
