What to do, what to do
☠carolinagirl☠ replied to carlak's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
i think which ever surgery you are able to get, you should if its only the lap band, then work the h ell of out it and be a success if you get the band and plication, then again work the he ll out of it and be a success either one you will have to change what and how much you eat to lose weight. you do not need the plication to aid the band to lose weight. many on here do not have it. my dr offered it because my bmi was 62 and i was super morbid obese. he told me it wouldnt work unless i heled the band and plication. i say this only because i dont want you to get hung up on something that may or may not happen. which ever you get, it will work if you help it. -
to gain weight, you have to eat more calories than you burn off... as dylan and miss said, follow the dr's allotted amounts, eat good filling foods and you will do well.

After 1 wk of surgery my incision is leaking. What should I do?
☠carolinagirl☠ replied to honorablebeauty's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
call their answering service and leave a message for them to call back..if very concerned go to the ER. -
my dr and his nurses gave me a list that could help gas x liquid tylenol (i use the cvs brand) immodium ad (my dr approved) probotics (my dr approval post op to help regulate) and dr prescribed me anti nausea meds hope this helps
-
i thought i knew the name but had to look it up to be sure.. http://phen375.com/en/ i saw the words (diet pills)..to me this is not needed when one has the lap band. i personally feel someone who buys these things are wasting money into that (quick fire wight loss cycle) only to be disappointed. For less than $3.80 per day! *Become slimmer faster than ever before* sorry, i dont feel anyone should waste money on this after having a WLS.

i had 2 1/2 weeks liquids on my pre op...day 4 and 5 were my hardest...i really thought id die and or starve...i was whining one day to my hub and he said, you wanted this surgery, so do what you have to do to make it happen..i read, i watched tv, i stayed on this forum and read and made friends, watched you tube on stories of the band....and tried to get my head into the game........here i am...and so will you be...
