Solid Foods But I Want My Protien Shakes
pcosmommyof4 replied to pcosmommyof4's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Thanks everyone. I Tuesday is my first posr-op visit. I am sure they will tell me plenty more and guide. I like the shakes, because they are chocolate. I am use to drining them for breakfast. I know once school starts that is the only way I will get breakfast in, I have to get four kids, and myself ready every morning. I am never hungry in the morning. So, it makes it easy for me. -
All things happen for a reason. It is good you will have time to concentrate on you.

Hi Just Had Lap Band 3Days Ago
pcosmommyof4 replied to klfregia's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I bought seasonings to add to the broth and shakes.Noodles are a big nono and can clog you up. Plus your tummy needs to heal first. I used ZIPFIZZ powder and made popsicles. Just make sure it is warm before it hits your tummy. Low Fat vanilla Activa was a big help too. -
Excited to start solid foods. 1 cup of food, three times a day according to my book written by Dr. Paul Obrian.

Soft And Mushy Foods
pcosmommyof4 replied to ☠carolinagirl☠'s topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
These all sound like yummies ideas. I am not sure about refried beans, I have heard to many war stories about them. My dr. says one cup of high protein food three tims a day. I have canned chicken and tuna ready. I will have to try the skinny cow cheese and fat free sourcream instead of miracle whip. -
Nope, had a depends instead of a catheter.

Refried Beans
pcosmommyof4 replied to ☠carolinagirl☠'s topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I tried scrambled eggs as ,y patient advocate said to fix them and yes, they got stuck. I drank lots of Water to get them to go through then ate some gas X. Totally not worth it. -
My patient rep. called back and told me my surgeon said that since i have a hormonal imbalance already that the anastesia would finish messing up the hormones. He thinks it will clear up in a few days.

I can't to my GYN for another two weeks. I will die of pain before they see me. Petroleum based products hadn't hurt me down there before. I do agree that they maybe the problem. It does not seem to be from the surgery. I have increased my probiotics, i take four Sustenex pills a day and eating four yogurts a day. I had my husband give me an exam and when he touched it I screamed loud enough for the dead to hear and balled. My husnad likes the sounds of the turkey baster. lol

I lost wieght with it. Don't drink anything with Caffine while talking it. I have had a hard time getting my dr. here to perscribe it (before surgery). So count your blessings that you are using it. You may be sick at first, but then your body gets to use it. However yes, once you stop taking it the wieght comes back. I am suprised they are using this if they are trying to convince your insurance you need the surgery. You will loose wieght with it.

You Don't Need Surgery...
pcosmommyof4 replied to justathing2me's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My answer is to that is, I have lost 70 pounds three times on my own. However it only took me a month to put it all back on, plus an additional 20%. Everyone knows that i have had the surgery. I have a public blog about journey that connects to my facebook. I am PROUD to be willingly to be banded, not ashamed. I am more ashamed when people think that I am not trying and they don't understand my diesease (PCOS). -
