Banded 2 days ago



Recommended Posts

Greetings all.

Home from hospital yesterday, never so happy to pass gas in my life, even wife didn't mind when she saw the level of pain I was having. (scared the dog).

Anybody who says this is the "easy way out" will receive a prompt ass-kicking, as soon as I feel up to it.

You can read about, talk to people, listen to Doctors, but until you do it yourself, nobody knows anything.

Clears until Tuesday, see doc next friday.

How long did it take your incisions to heal?

Jabba, I'm right there with ya' I was done on the 18th. While it hasnt been a walk in the park I would have tgo say that it has gone pretty smooth for me. I think the shoulder pain was the worst, but even that got better by day 2. My girlfriend makes fun of me because I never really understood what bloating was. I used to tease her about it during her TOM, now I know bloatging and I dont like it all. Sorry ladies, i will never make fun again.

I was banded on 2/19 also ( I think that was your day?) It is my birthday present to myself. My birthday is tomorrow. I will be on a modified liquid diet for two more weeks and to be honest, I am starving! I go back to work tomorrow so I just hope that will keep my mind off food.< /p>

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
