Boo Boo Kitty's PS Journey



Recommended Posts

EbonyRose you sure have a way with words! My feelings about BBK's sharing too!

BBK....I no longer can claim TOM due to being a hystersister! LOL

I know I have had many issues going on and the gain is just a bump in the road...

So...I just have to look up! My doc puts you on THREE DAYS of Clear Liquids after a fill so I am sure that the 3 lbs are gone gone gone.....what was your doc's after a fill routine? Just curious??? I am doing fine here on day 2 so, 1 more to go...I'll be cleaned out that is for sure!!

Take care of yourself...how are you anyway????

I am doing better thanks. This hunger though, sucks. I am back to protien bars to fill me up. :crying:

My Dr does 1 day liquids, 2 days mushies and back to regular food. Not too bad. I usually have to take a few extra days of mushies. My body is very sensitive to fills.

That is interesting...I am DONE with liquids this time...mushies or food in the morning...although, I usually do a Protein Shake for breakfast.....an old habit which works with my schedule...

Protein Bars are good I just have to watch the carb count...I try and stay under 15 grams a bar or less. (after subtracting the fiber)

Well, I am glad you are hanging in there...I think I may have finally gotten some restriction...I'll keep my fingers crossed...

How are your scars doing? My port one is VERY ugly and still maroon or purple??

Am--scars are nasty, very purple. I hate them! :mellow: I was going to spend some dough and get some cream from the plastic surgeon but since he is going to have to completely revise me, what is the point? :tongue2:

Plain--it is better, thanks. :cool2: Doesn't hurt now unless I bump it!

Hey all

I wanted to share this picture I took yesterday with all of you. This is me now without any binders, Spanx any of that. As you can see with clothes the PS looks quite nice. :tongue2:

Thank you. I have to say that dress was so close to the body, I felt naked. BUT I pulled it off and then was happy I did it. DH zipped me in it that morning and I freaked and wanted it off. He wouldn't unzip it, so I had no choice. By the end of the day, I owned it! :lovechoc:

GREAT NEWS!

Hello all, well week 3 unfilled is OVER and week 4 is about to begin. Well I have not gained weight, in fact I have lost 2. :thumbup: My worries were unwarranted in that regard.

I also can call this week to schedule the fill to see if the slip has fixed itself.

But the post itself is now completely healed I believe. It sticks out only a small tiny bit now! WOOO HOOO! I can feel it and it is about the size of quarter or less. It no longer hurts to touch and the spot under the ribs where it came from has finally settled down as well. I am very happy with the new port itself. I guess we will really get to see how it functions when I get the fill.

I have been able to keep myself away from my demons, like Hostess King Dongs. I am so proud of myself. They have been on sale everywhere I go...rotfl.... :mellow: NONE for me! :wink_smile:

BBK: Congratulations! I hope that all is well with your band! Are they going to do your fill under floruscope? I had mine filled that way this week and it was great and btw my band is fine, too.

BBK: It's definetly worth it. They can see how your band is sitting and how it reacts to a fill, plus they can fill you to a better place because they can see the restriction. I hope it works out for you!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
