3 Weeks Post-Op And Have A Lump Feeling After Eating?
yellowrose88 replied to kr8160311's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Sounds like you are eating too fast. Slow down and take your time. Wait a minute between each bite. Remember it should take you about 20 minutes to eat a meal. Good luck... -
If you are really concerned call your doctor. The best thing is to walk around. This helped me so much. Good luck!

I weight myself almost every day. LOL.

Great job and keep up the good work! -
Congrats!!

I also had a fill last week and what a difference it has made. I can feel my fill too.

I can feel my but it is not noticable to the eye.

I had my first fill last week. My NP was awesome! No numbing. She just felt around and one poke and she was in. I did bleed a little and sore that night.
-
I had a fill on Tuesday and I can feel the difference. Was able to eat dinner last night and it didn't take much and same thing this morning for breakfast... I didn't even ask how much was put in... Life is good!

I was up and walking to the restroom within a couple of hours after surgery and I went home the same day. Surgery at 8:00am and in the car by 11:30am. -
Good question and would love to know also.

You should be fine as long as you are following your doctors instructions. My doctor put me on the South Beach Super Charged Phase 1 diet. -

I Was Ready To Got Back!
yellowrose88 replied to jackieu's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You can take advil. You need to make sure you get up and walk around even if it is just for a few minutes. The first week I went back to work I was still gassy and in slight pain. I had my surgery on Friday and went back to work the following Tuesday. Good luck! -
1St Appt With Dietician & Np Since Surgery
yellowrose88 replied to Amanda61082's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I did not have a fill at my first appoinment either. I was in the green and nurse practionier stated I didn't need one. I went for my second appoinment this week and they gave me a fill. -
Wow what a coincidence... I am sorry you ran into someone you know. You can always say you were exploring options. Remember this is for a healthier you. I have not told anyone except for my immediate family (husband and children). I haven't even told my parents. I think this is your personal choice on who and when you tell someone. Maybe the girl you saw won't even say anything to anyone because she was working. Good luck to you!!

Do You Still Have Restriction Without A Fill?
yellowrose88 replied to kr8160311's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
The band is helping! When I had my first appointment for a fill I was told I didn't need one at this time. I read on here before a lady who has been banded 3 years and has never received a fill. My doc told me not to get a fill if you don't need it. It's not all the band it is you too. Way to go and keep up the good work! -
What Size Is The Realize Band??
yellowrose88 replied to kr8160311's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
I received a temp card when I was discharged and went online once I got home and they sent me a permenate Patient ID Card. My card has the system id #, Name, surgery date, Surgeon, surgeons telephone number and band size and max fill volume. I was told I could use mine to order kid meals too! LOL... -
Congrats and Good luck on a new you!

March 19 I Was Banded
yellowrose88 replied to 333jamilee's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
It is most likely gas. I know it is hard to move around but the more you do the better you will feel. They have liquid vitiamins at the Walmart. I have only found one kind but they were on the top shelf and you can even ask someone at the pharmacy counter for help.
