I have a question? I have 100lbs to lose, I get banded 3/27/07 Type II Diabetic (for 5yrs) Over the past 2-3yrs. I've noticed all the Led in my Pencil hasn't been there :bandit The Doc even gave me some 100mg Viagra! I thought that would get King Kong Erect!!! But nada :faint:you believe that. I was just wondering, to you Post-Op People, did you see any improvement with that???

Thanks Guys,

Rocko~~:(

Brothers of the Band, I have now officially joined you. :( Went in at 8Am, put on my little robe, they started an IV, next thing i know I wake up at 11AM with a sore stomach and the worst cotton mouth i've ever had. lol, apparently when I came out of anestesia (sp?) in the OR, I started going nutts yelling and hitting stuff, screaming, "stop holding my f'ing arms down". I don't remember that, but i hope i didnt say anything too nasty to the folks in the OR. overall, the worst part was when they were prepping me for surgery.. It was sort of like an alien obduction scene...freaked me out. Right now, i'm sipping a propel, taking plenty of meds, and the pain in my stomach sort of feels like a cramp you get when you're running. If i twist a certain way when i'm standing up or laying down, it really hurts like hell. taking deep breaths helps a lot. anyway, looking forward to my rowdy reptiles whipping some A$$ tonight in the first round of the NCAA tournament.

Rocko: The ol' pencil definitely got a lead injection after I was banded. The reports from the Oprah show, while possibly a bit exaggerated, are generally correct. Things just work better when not surrounded by fat. Use the search feature on LBT to find other threads on the subject; I recall some informative and humorous ones a while back, with both male and female perspectives. To summarize, "longer" and "stronger" were the terms most commonly mentioned to describe the improvement. Good luck to you, brother.

And Rowdy, welcome to Bandland brother. Get some rest and let your body recover from being banded. You just made one of the smartest moves of your life and you'll be reaping the rewards very shortly.

Onward, brothers.

For me the ole pencil did get some lead added to it. Mrs. Gaffer has confirmed that by telling me she does not know what she will do when I lose more weight.

Yet another postitive side effect of the band.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
