I did not want to freak anybody out, but Dr.K. gave me his home phone # (just in case, but wanted me to check in with him today) so I did and I had a rash I was concerned about and yaddda yadda.

He said I was doing great, not to be concerned, he will see me on Wed. and we can resched lapband in 4 weeks. Don't eat too many calories he said as he hung up the phone!

What a great guy!

I went to work today;I could have gone to work yesterday but was kinda paranoid about the colon thing, today I am much more relaxed especially since I am not showing any signs of bad stuff going on.

Chris you will fly through this!Tell them to order pizza for dinner...

Hey all!

Chris after surgery you do have to remind yourselk to eat. There are several times when I find that I am not hungary but it is time to eat. I know you will do awesome.

How is everyone doing? How are things going?

My first week back to work was good. It was a bit tiring at first and it was hard to stand on my feet all day, but that is the way it goes. I also started going back to the gym this week. Taking it very slow of course, but it was good to get back in a routine.

Sorry that I have not been on in awhile, I have just gotten busy again.

Well I hope that you are all well.

Chris, I bet you are getting excited, you are alomst there. Don't you just love Dr. Ganser. He is such a great guy!

Talk to you all later.

Won't be spending the night, I want to get home asap!!

She is one of the night recovery nurses, but I don't knoww when she is working there.

I am getting pretty excited about this getting on. I will post from the hospital for sure. the new laptop is pretty nice.

It is pretty tough where we ride sleds, I will ask Dr Ganser when I talk to him either at the surgery, or postop when i can ride agin. we went out today and it was a complete white out!! we spent all morning digging sleds out that were stuck in over 4 feet of fresh powder!!!

Dr Ganser it awsome!! Really put me at ease. I just wish I liked my GP as much as I do him.

I am so excited for you! Don't forget to post with all the details, I am sure Gail will be anxiously waiting too since she is the next one in our little forum after you.

I just thought..... You can't eat today, not even Water, that is okay you are probably so intune to getting surg today that it won't even cross your mind.

Then after surg. you will be HAPPY to get those ice chips!

Just another note: When you start your post op diet everything tastes soooooo salty, even cream of wheat.

Thinking about you today Chris. Good Luck!

I go in for my pre-op tests tomorrow. Still on the Protein but I haven't lost anything for two days! I think I have met my 10% requirement as long as the docs scales read like mine. At least I still have few more days to work it!

How ya feeling Pam? I have missed seeing you on here!

I am on here day and night; I swear!

I feel great! I went back to work on Saturday, a teeny teeny teeny bit sore but not a big deal, just had to move a little slower getting out of my chair to help customers.

I am looking forward to being banded and I visit the March bandster thread at least 3x a day.

And I saw you on Remedydr. (the ones that we paid for thru western bariatrix~that is not 1/2 as good as this one) but maybe I just have not met my "niche" over there like our little reno group here.

Have you added some Protein to your shakes?

Do I have to add Protein to the Bariatrix?

Yes, I am so far kind of disappointed with the Remedy website. Maybe I just not familiar with it as much as this one. It took me a while to figure this one out.

I was going to ask you a while back...Do you know if everyone who has had a hysto done has that lining removed like you?

No you do not have to add Protein to bariatrix.

I was referring to the private PM we did about starving and cheating...

The ONLY reason I had my omentum taken out; as a precautionary thing due to cancer.

They typically do not take the omentum with your hysto.

Don't worry about the colon puncture thing, it only ever happens to me, and I have accepted this all my life. One in a million! That would be me!

Oh duh on Me!!!

Yes, I did shrimp and then I did some steak night be for last. I know I shouldn't have done the steak but I was so hungry. I don't want to blow this at all! But I think I am ok as far as my weight loss. I just win if I lose while I am on a roll or rolls as the case may be!:heh:

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...
