Just Can't Get My Energy Back From Surgery
dianalyn replied to donna12's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My doctor requires b12 either in shots or liquid drops. -
After the first couple of days it felt like a pulled muscle only hurting when my movement required stomached muscle use. I switched from narcotics to Advil Tylenol rotation on day 2. 23rd you'll be ready to rock! Good luck. Ps... This coming from someone who had laparoscopic surgery may 31st then banded August 3rd- double wammy.

Day 4 for me.....cream of wheat diluted with skim milk and thin creamed soups. However, your doctor should have given you post op diet instructions. -

Very Frustrated...only Lost 31 Lbs
dianalyn replied to Snowymtnrn's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
My doctor says low fat proteins only- no peanut butter. -
Had to postpone my band- had my galbladder removed May 31st. Banding will now be the end of July . I want to stay motivated, I read so much negative feed back from people who are failing theirselves, by not following the guidelines. If I keep reading these I may change my mind. I am self pay- it is a lot to pay to fail. I see lots of excuses.

3 weeks per my docs handbook

Went to my pre surgery appointment - getting banded August 1st. ( having gallbladder surgery Thursday). To the point- my doctor recommends sublingual b-12 or b-12 shots to regain energy. Can not hurt to try.
