Hi There, I originally had Dr. Nazarian for my surgeon then I was switched to Dr. Feiz same group. I hope to be banded by the end of March. Please let me know how you are doing. Nicole is so great in getting everything going for me. Did you have to be on a pre diet before surgery? I hear everyone talking about this and it was never even mentioned to me or by Elana the nutrionist. Thanks, Cheryl

Congratulations to everyone on their BAnd-Day! I am on day 4 post surgery, I can honestly say it has not been all that bad... I have not gotten sick at all and my incisions are healing great! I am only having some chest pain now which is normal and a little gas pain in my shoulder which the gas x strips really help (make sure u take to the hospital with you) and last night i slept all through the night without waking up 4 or 5 times.... GOod LuCk to Everyone! Oh and by the way I am down 14.5 total but 7lbs from the morning of my surgery! YEAH Me!:confused:

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
