    October Bandsters!!!

    Well I'm on the other side I had a micro laproscopic procedure done. There is only liquid stitches and 4 scabs are about the size of a eraser of a pencil. My belly button is not looking so pretty though. That is where she put my port, and I wonder if maybe fixed a hernia, I am super sore there. Luckily I'm not hungry. Thirsty as all get out though! My lip got cut and throat pretty torn up from the tubing. I am excited to start this new way of eating and lets not forget shopping for smaller clothes!!

    Yesterday went really well. I was in and out and home by 1:30. It was nice being in my own bed. The hospital was pretty noisy. I was feeling sore, like a bunch of sit ups but not bad. Last night was rough. It is hard to get in a comfortable position. The heating pad helped a bit. This morning is better. Luckily I"m not hungry and just burping a lot. Good luck to everyone this week!

    I have been craving chocolate something fierce and made a protein shake that tasted like reeces peanut butter cup. milk, ice, chocolate protein powder (unjury) and a tbs of creamy peanut butter. I hit the spot! Thought I would share.

    Why would citrus be a concern? nuts are a normal "allergy" interesting why they would want you to be tested....ONE WEEK OUT..(holy cow)...thinking of you and hope it will result in nothing!

    fantastic you are doing well. Sleep....drink...recover....
  9. Luckily I am having chicken and veggies at dinner, that helps. I did have a spoonful of Peanut Butter later than evening. I figure it's Protein...it did help. I have been going to bed super early and that has helped with the night tummy rumbling. My energy is low, but that is to be expected. Onward!
  10. I'm also october 12, lets keep in touch!

  11. I just joined OWLS in Portland as a patient. Can you expand on the problems with the staff you mentioned on the site? Was it with the fills?

  12. sas31065, I was wondering how your experience with owls was during and after the surgery?

  13. Tonight's the night. It's going to be homemade alfredo fettuccine and a nice fancy bottle of white wine.

    Oh good. Looks like most people are getting there's done on the 14th. I'm also having my "last meals" today. I'm sticking with berry shakes with protein, soup, and fish/salad or chicken/veggies for dinner Greek yogurt and pudding for snacks. Should be....interesting
