Everyone has a different pain threshold, but for what it is worth, I took only one pain pill. Gas was worse, but tolerable. You will do fine!

Follow your doctor's plan. Just be sure you get your protein in every day. And don't forget, liquids only after the fill for 24 hours. You will do great!

Doc's Goal- Just Eight Pounds To Go...
CHEZNOEL replied to LittleGirlBlue's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
It doesn't matter where you start, just where you end up. If you are happier and healthier, you've made it! -
I Don't Want To Tell Anyone I'm Considering Lapband
CHEZNOEL replied to momof02's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Tell who YOU want. It is not a per-requisite for friendship! I would tell my spouse if married... they kinda need to know. -
Wear your heaviest clothes!

Fantastic story! A definite keeper!
-
It's like that old joke about the lawyer defending himself... Just get the proper care! You deserve it!

I Can Now Post In The Post-Op Forum!
CHEZNOEL replied to megamomnj's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Congrats to you all, you are beginning a journey towards healthier you! -
I would use collace as soon as you get home. Some of us continue to need it 1 year out. Initially don't be in too big of a hurry to have the first BM. Straining is not good and remember you will have very low intake.

Holy Cow Am I "burby"!!
CHEZNOEL replied to lspringman's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Generally only burpy if I eat too much too fast? -
I am the same as Floridays? Never heard of liquids only pre-fill? Is it your first?

Question About Unjury Shakes
CHEZNOEL replied to Joy1961's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
A agree... chicken soup and the shakes are fab. I did not care for the strawberry either, but many people do like it. I mix with sugar free almond milk. More body and less carbs than skim milk. -
I am also close to my goal and can eat anything if I chew slowly and do not rush. Think of it as a short term loss for long term healthier life! ( I would never say the "g" word!)

Lapband With Plication?
CHEZNOEL replied to missyl817's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
BTW in the year since surgery I have had only two fills. -
Lapband With Plication?
CHEZNOEL replied to missyl817's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had lap band with plication a year ago. Very happy, no complications. It is like getting two surgeries for one! My doc has had great success with it! -
Call an attorney, even an ambulance chaser can handle this stupidity. Ask for a hospital advocate. This is ludicrous!
-
Skinny a$$ jeans and a little black dress!
-
Stick to the band rules and I'll bet you change your mind sooner rather than later. BTW, have you told him why? I finding talking helps a lot of these problems.

Can I Drink Normal Now?
CHEZNOEL replied to colleeb's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It varies by person, but chugging can insert a lot of gas. Take bigger sips more often! -
Where else but Mickey D's?????
-
I agree with CG! You need to stop thinking about cheating and focus on compliance and life style change. You truly can do yourself harm if you cheat on the post op diet. Buck up! IF we could do it you can too!
-
Welcome to rest of your new life! Congrats on the surgery!
-
Best wishes! You will do great. Keep us posted!

Wondering What To Bring?
CHEZNOEL replied to Courtnin's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Bring a positive attitude and a support person. The rest can be taken care of once you are there. You might want to bring some clear liquids if you want things other than plain water... I used Crystal light sticks in the water for variety!
