Thursday I went in at 7am ( so I could sit around for a couple of hours with my hiney sticking out ) by 10am I was banded. I didn't throw-up or anything! I'm very excited. I was sore for a couple of days and took my pain med but now I'm solo and I'm doing very well, I'm not really having any pain.

I am feeling a little bit dizzy and not really with it. What's with that? And it's really odd to feel full, but still feel hungry...

I'm back at work today, so wish me well....They have free hamburgers and hot dogs in the break room....Too bad I didn't bring the blender :(

Ohh...I forgot to tell you, they let me go home the same day...I was sleeping in my own bed by 10pm that night :D

Congratulations, and welcome to bandland! The dizziness could be low blood sugar; Protein Drinks are a good idea. Who and where is your doctor? Same-day surgery sounds great.

Wow Aileena! It sounds like you are doing great. What a trooper you are. Definitely work on the Protein. It will give you strength and energy as well as keeping your blood sugar up.

Best of luck to you.

Aileena, I was banded the same day as you and got to go home that day also must have been a lucky day. Glad to hear everything is going well for you.

I get to have yogurt now so I started putting my whey Protein and Vitamin powder in that. Alot better than Isopure. I am hoping this will give me more energy.

Congratulations on everything going so well. Celeste

      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! 😞
