I can't believe it! I just went to the store and got some Zicam. Hopefully that will make it go away.

Wow...it's finally happening.:lol:

I was banded this past Monday and thought I was coming down with a sinus infection 3 days before. I started taking antibiotics immediately and everything worked out. Good Luck!!

Thanks. :biggrin: I'm doing well. Still a little gassy, but feeling good. Incisions are healing nicely, no more pain. I am on five weeks of "full liquids", but I can have pudding!! I would say I had a pretty good experience overall and I am very happy my insurance covered it. Great aftercare and an overnight stay at the hospital helped. My surgeon insists on one overnight for observation and the hospital's bariatric nurse was great.

That's so great! I'm glad you are doing well. I was looking at your ticker and noticed we are starting at about the same weight (1 pound difference lol) and I am assuming you are probably about my same height since our starting BMI is the same too. I am interested in seeing how you progress in your weightloss so I might have an idea of what to expect. I won't be banded until June, as long as insurance goes ok. So I'm going to be watching you...:biggrin:

Gee...I sound like a stalker!:tongue:

      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! 😞
