Going Through Some Depression And Regret
Boniluuu posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was banded three days ago. I was a self pay cause my insurance would not pay. I sold my work stock to pay some down. I am just thinking I could have spent that money somewhere else. This is a forever thing. Maybe I jumped into it too soon. I have 4 young boys that need me. They need a healthy mommy to be there for them. I did this before I got diabetes or high blood pressure. Just thinking out loud -

What Can You Expect To Experience The First 3 Days After Surgery ?
Boniluuu replied to marketingdude's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am having a hard time emotionally with the change. I wish SOMEONE had said you will be feeling sad or depressed for a few days. But it is because......... Other posts have described these feelings also. -
I am an overnight stocker. They said 4 weeks bc the port is attached to the muscle. I need the time off to deal with the mental part of this surgery no one tells you about.

If You Could Really Turn Back Time, Would You Get Banded Again??
Boniluuu replied to txdee's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thete is a lot of emotional and mental crap that goes with this. No one at True Results bothered to explain this. Too busy seeing $$$$ signs. Talk to someone about the mental stuff before you consider ANY weight loss surgery. -
First Time Stuck Today!
Boniluuu replied to Catfish2012's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am 7 days out. I am having a hard time emotionally too. Last night I ate a small piece of fried chicken. I was full all night. I am tired of the liquids! Tired of baby food! They did not explain this mental part before surgery!!! -
For People Who Work Overnight. I Have Some Suggestions
Boniluuu posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I work overnight as a stocker. I made the crazy choice to work all night then get banded. I was so out of it and could not keep my eyes open after surgery. They told me to wake up and I could not keep my eyes open. The nurse and I talked today and Hugh agreed I should have taken off. Just some friendly thoughts -
My dr sewed part of my stomach around the band to prevent slipping.
-
I think you need to give yourself more time. Your port site will be sore. There was an emotional thing with me on day 3. You are making a major change. Do not rush this.

If You Could Really Turn Back Time, Would You Get Banded Again??
Boniluuu replied to txdee's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I sm just banded. It is a physical and emotional change. My problem is I can eat alot. It will be a tool to help me change my habits. I chose the band because it was cheaper and I did not want to die during a complicated surgery. -

What Can You Expect To Experience The First 3 Days After Surgery ?
Boniluuu replied to marketingdude's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was in pain and hungry. I was not prepaired emotionally for this. -
OK I am just newly banded. How long after surgery can I get my first fill? I am so hungry! The shakes and grits are not cutting it!

Very frustrated with Dr B and true results richardson. I feel like true results got me in to get the surgery without really caring. The lady at dr b office was rude and could not wait to get me off the phone. If I had it to do over again I would have found someone else
