I'm not looking forward to going out to dinner. I have a family that every time I put my fork down they start staring me. I'm like "What!" we're just making sure you're ok. Are you going to get sick? Really? I think I can take care of my self. Just venting!
-
Oh, dear. The inner brat in me would be all prepared with smart-aleck responses to the "Are you going to get sick?" line. "I don't know, but I'll be sure to let you know if I feel a hurl coming on." That was great! LOL!

It wasn't major as before. Same as when we had the scope. They only put on a new buckle. -

More like a power spew. Didn't come from my stomach came from my pouch. I still can't eat but I'm drinking easier now.

I finally got rid of my stuck food. I took a glass of orange juice and some sprite and guzzled it. Two seconds later everything exploded! Now I'm not sure if I still have a piece o food or I'm just really sore. Anyway it worked. I had forgotten that I had baked beans Sunday and there was pieces of hotdog in it. Well that little piece smaller than a dime caused me so much pain! I don't recommend this solution but if you try it be warned to drink it out side cause you will explode! I was desperate.

I've had a piece of food stuck for 2 days now. Little bit is coming up at a time. I tried the papaya, the pineapple juice, the pocahontas dance. so far the only thing working is sipping on a regular coke. Little sips! I threw up some and felt some move down. Got a llttle more to go. Dr. says a have a small esphoficus and I need to take litle bites and chew, chew, chew!

Maybe we should pray for the people that say they are Christians, yet they continuously make up stories, lie and cause hate and discontent. I don't need to say names, God knows who u are and what you've done. You can't deceive him! AND HE'LL TAKE CARE OF YOU!

A 50- something year old white woman arrived at her seat on a crowded flight and immediately didn't want the seat. The seat was next to a black man. Disgusted, the woman immediately summoned the flight attendant and demanded a new seat. The woman said "I cannot sit here next to this black man." The fight attendant said "Let me see if I can find another seat...." After checking, the flight attendant returned and stated "Ma'am, there are no more seats in economy, but I will check with the capta...

Stomach Rumbling After Lap Band Surgery
skiddles replied to Banded in Bear Lake's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I work in an office and my tummy growls alot. I'm not hungry, I only get hiccups when I eat too fast and they hurt! If not for the hiccups I may have gone back to shoveling food! -
Dear Santa, I don't want much for Christmas, I just want the person reading this to be happy. Friends are the fruit cake of life --- some nutty, some soaked in alcohol, some sweet, but mix them together and they're my friends At Christmas you always hear people talking about what they want & bought. This is what I want: I want people who are sick with no cure to be able to be cured. I want children with no families to be adopted. I want people to never have to worry about food, shelter & hea...

Post surgery not what I expected
skiddles replied to EddieDC's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I use the Fitness Pal app, You can use it on your computer too. It keeps track of everything you put in your mouth. Its a great tool to use with your lap band. Whole grain oatmeal is great for low calorie filling mushy. Soft scrambled egg with little pieces of turkey ham and 1/2 slice of of farmers cheese. It really filling. I could eat a horse right now, but I focus on 700 - 1000 cal a day. My focus is recognizing the sense of feeling full. Good luck! -
Post surgery not what I expected
skiddles replied to EddieDC's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I thought something was wrong with me! I was banded Oct. 21st. After 8 days I cautiously started nibbling. The next day I nibbled a little more. I thought maybe the band didn't work cause I don't feel any different than I did before! -
My pain was/is between my shoulder blades feels like a knife stuck in my back. I had a hernia repair also. I want to know which scar is the hernia repair.

Utterly Panicked...
skiddles replied to Stacie from St. Louis's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I too am so thankful this group is here. I'm 3 days out and I can't get anything down. It feels like it gets stuck in the middle of my shoulder blades. I tried a little O.J. this morning- I'll not do that again! I got dry heaves and it felt like somebody stuck a knife in my chest. So I stay with water and lemonade. Apple juice seems to go down ok. Jello and soup. I also have the "Oh No What have I done blues. So I'm glad to know others feel the same way and it will pass. Right now I could eat a steak and baked potato! -
I forgot to mention I also had a Hiatal Hernia removed. Doc said my sugar went up because of the steroids they gave me. They gave me an insulin shot. If they told me what kind, I don't remember. Only problem I have now, is staying awake.
-
Welll I'm now part of the banded team! I have no pain and no gas pain. I kept waiting for the pain to come and it hasn't. The only issue I had was my sugar jumped to 225.
