My dr also told me to take them for the rest of my life. My problem is remembering them! I have a five year old so in the morning hes getting ready for school im running out the door to work and i even tried taking them to work and i get so busy i forget! also it was too much of a hassle to try to remember one every 2 hours! I def still drink my protein shakes every morning -
During The Lapband Procedure...
Kami172000 replied to Chamie's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
They told me to empty my bladder also so i didnt have to get one but i guess the dr changed his mind? It only felt uncomfortable when they took it out but bc i was on so much meds i didnt feel much -

Ya i think they did it just to get an extra dr visit from my insurance. But it is very annoying and inconsiderate -

Not Hungry But Want To Eat + A Rant
Kami172000 posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
This is my one month mark, I wont have my first fill till june 5th. I dont feel hungry 90% of the time but I always find myself looking for food or munchies. I know its a mind game but my head has more will power then my will power!! I can eat alot more then I should be able to! I have read alot of people say that the first fill didnt do anything for them, well I didnt do all of this to go backwards!! Im hoping I can get my dr to put more in my band then a normal first fill. I have no restrictions and I NEED that!! (the reason i got the band to help with my fullness and not wanting to eat). i have gained about 5lbs since I have been able to eat reg foods and i know its because i can eat with no restrictions! Some people say they didnt get a good restriction and weight loss untill 6 months after!! i cant wait 6 months more!! it has taken me a whole year before i got my surgery, now that I have it I want to be able to use it now. I dont know.... -

I Can Actually Sleep On My Stomach Now!
Kami172000 posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It has almost been a month since my surgery and the last few nights i have been able to sleep on my stomach! It feels wonderful! My port sticks out alot more then my stomach so it was hard to do anything that could possibly touch it. Im excited! I couldnt get a good night sleep laying on my back. For a while i was sleeping half on my stomach and half on my side with my leg brought up towards my chin to prop up my body and that was ok for awhile sl anyone who wants to sleep on their stomach but is afraid to try that -
Im on reg foods now and i gained 2lbs! I read that until the first fill most people gain weight but its very discouraging! I feel like im doing something wrong.
