Hey Twin Im so glad your doing great. I have been walking all through the house and in the back yard because I have a busy 2y/o little boy who could live outside if I let him. So I spend quite a bit of time outside. I have had tons of people over as well because Im a single parent so I was needing help with my little boy. But so far so good. Im still hungry but trying to stay focused.ttyl

Ok so day 3 of post-op not so bad still really sore. I was planning on going back to work tomorrow but I decided not to rush it. I have a hard time sitting for to long get gas pains in my back. However today I had soupy cream of wheat it was so yummy and it hit the spot. But still getting up and moving around. Im starting to go crazy being stuck in the house but im not ready to venture out yet. So how is everyone else doing???

Well congrats on your up coming surgery!!!!!! My sister will be getting the sleeve in June and she was saying it's still far away. But it will be here b4 you know it!

Well I was planning on going back to work on Tuesday but now im not so sure. Im still relying on my pain meds and taking stuff slow. Im going to try cream of wheat (soupy) tomorrow. Looking forward to it. Today i started to get dizzy if i stood for to long i would get lightheaded. Im just assuming that it's because Im hungry so I will have some ice chips and lay down. Hoping tomorrow will be better for me.

Well congrats to you! Im still really sore and I have a hard time doing stuff like bending and sitting for long periods of time. Im hoping each day it gets better. Im not going to lie I would kill for something to eat right now. And I just had a Protein shake. I wish I could put something in my Protein Shake.. Oh well keep me posted on your recovery Band Twin!!!!!!

So I got banded this morning and the dr also removed my galbladder he said it was inflamed. This was more painful then i was expecting but im dealing with it and taking my meds. I never knew someone could enjoy sucking on ice lol. Well I had the surgery around 1pm and stayed in hospital until 8pm just to make sure everything was ok. Im having no problems getting up and walking around and the gas hasn't been as intense as I was expecting. Thanks to you guys I stopped on the way home and got some gas-x and took it as soon as I got home. Liquid diet was horrible I was on it for only 1 day pre-op and now post-op 2weeks but I got a serious headache i guess from not eating. I don't want to get one of those again that was terrible. So im off to bed now just wanted to check in and keep you updated. Hope everyone else is doing great........

Getting banded Friday and Im still so confused on what kinda of powder drinks to have? My dr's office has some stuff but it's pretty expensive. What kinda od recipes does anyone have for post op when I can start eating food again? Also what vitamins are you taking they gave me a list and at my dr office they are $62 kinda pricey? Thank you for any help!!!!! Today is my last day to eat anyhthing I start my liquid diet tomorrow. Getting excited and nervous!!!!!!!

Im getting banded on March 23rd so super excited. This has been a long time coming... I started my process june2011 and saw dr in sept then on 6 month diet. This is going to be great for everyone. Operation get skinny and healthy in full effect!!! Congrats to us all!!!!

Sooooo excited this week is going to change my life. Getting ready to go in for my pre-op today and register at the hospital for friday. Anybody from Texas???

So pre-op went good and all registered. Surgery is friday not sure of the time yet they will call me thursday. I guess I didn't realize how much the post-op protien shakes would be. Does anybody have any good advice where to get good protien shakes at a reasonable price?
