I have an IUD, and am 10 days post op. Since surgery I have been spotting twice; which is completely out of the norm for me with the IUD. Everything I researched said it could happen, spotting, so I wouldn't worry unless it gets worse than spotting.

10 days post op and feeling pretty great. I've been blogging about my journey, you can read about it under my website url.

I've been having trouble with my water intake as well. I'm almost there though; I'm at about 6 cups a day, gotta get those other 2 in somewhere.
Read about your port incision, is everything ok?

How are things going? I'm feeling pretty good, but last night got bummed. I was making dinner for my family and then looked at my 1/4 cup of yogurt with a protein shake...ugh. Oh well, I'm on pureed/liquid diet, and so far it's going ok. They said it's for a week, so on Saturday I can have mushy food (and I can't wait) lol

Hi JackieWho! I am doing really well. Surgery went great on Thursday, feeling good so far. How are you?

Hi gennie,
I saw question about the inland empire support group; did you find one? I'm in the high desert, I was going to call my doctor's office and see if they host any like once a month or something.
How did you surgery go? I hope all is well.

I'm sharing a surgery date with a few of you; I'll be banded on September 8, 2011. There seem to be many early September bandsters; I'm excited to have people to share this journey with. Best wishes to all of you!

Things are...ok. I tried to pull the mind over matter, and psych myself out that this would be easy as long as I stayed optimistic, but lately I've just felt hungry. I called in about it, they said I should have more protein, and I'm trying to incorporate it. They told me instead of all liquid I can have one low-cal/high protein meal a day, and everything else liquid, which has helped so much.

I have my surgery date of September 8, 2011. Last weekend I went down for a sleep study, and my EGD. I still have to meet with a primary physician to get cleared for surgery, and on Thursday I'll be starting a two week, all liquid diet. I'm really not looking forward to that.

I have my surgery date of Thursday, September 8th. I go in on Friday for a sleep study, and then Saturday morning my endoscopy.
-
We have the same surgery date of September 8th. Have you already started your dieting or other pre-surgery items?
Best of luck to you.

Hi, I'm new to the forum, but will also be using Dr. Salimitari for my lap-band procedure. How has your experience been so far?
-
September 8th is also my set surgery date. I have so many feelings, I'm excited, scared, and a bit anxious as I've never gone through surgery before. I have to complete my sleep study this Friday, and my endoscopy will be done Saturday morning.
