I've been banded!!!



Recommended Posts

Surgery went great! I feel really sore, but I do not feel hungry. I've been sipping on Protein Water, chicken broth and had a few sips of Decaf coffee this morning. And tomorrow is my 38th birthday!!! :smile: I can't wait to watch the scale move down and start buying smaller clothes!!!

I have a patch for pain that last for 72 hrs and I also have liquid Loratab. Last night I took just a lick of a popsicle and it made me nauseous, so I am also on Phengram.

I am SO GLAD I had this done! There is not one doubt in my mind! I will succeed!!! :scared2:

I did not think of something for nausea but the dr. did mention it.. here in Canada we use a lot of "gravol".. and have never had to research nasea medicine... do you get it while you are walking about?.,.. or just in general.....

      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!!

      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! 😞
