I had surgery same day. I have only had a 1/4 cup Fage plain Greek yogurt. I was also hungry. The yogurt is a good protein source and helped with the hunger. Broth is helpful too
-
I just saw the nutritionist yesterday and she said some people have problems with rotisserie chicken because it usually drier. Just be careful if trying it for the first time.

Relax. Your journey will soon begin

You will feel much better with each day. Day 2 and 3 were the worse so you are over the hump. I hope you get well soon. I had surgery 6/25 and a hernia repair as well

Hang in there. Look at jenjaw over 100 lbs lighter! Awesome Let's picture ourselves on July 4, 2013. Yesterday I cooked for a family BBQ the hardest thing was not being able to taste anything. I always taste to see if I need more of something. I had to keep asking my husband does this taste OK?

Are the fills included in the surgical package or are they separate? -

You will most likely see other people in the gym. You can learn from them as well. I started with the eliptical, or the bike it's easy on the joints. Start slow. Also the Internet has everything.

I had my surgery 6/25/12 and I am very hungry as well. Still on Protein shakes. I can go about 2 1/2 - 3 hours between protein shakes. This morning I drank one and still hungry. I have lost 8 lbs in a week. Yesterday it was only around 5.5 today 8 lbs. I was shocked, but so happy at least I am losing weight which is the goal. I am waiting for when we get filled and can start eating food. Hang in there

Single Incision Vs. Traditional
Wtloss replied to Wisdom2KnowTheDifference's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
How big is your port site? I had surgery Monday and was very surprised to find mine is around 3 inches. I have six incisions. I had no idea it would be that big. The others are all small -
I am 57 and just had surgery this past Monday. Don't know what I was waiting for.
-
It is hard, but I found the second week I wasn't as hungry. I got banded Monday and now hungry again still on liquids, but I am losing wt so it's a good thing. Drink your protein and water
-
We are all so different. I can drink the 1/2 protein drink right down no restriction. I wish I had some.
-
Get to a doctor ASAP. Not sure of your situation but chest pain should not be taken lightly
-
Great for you, it took me over a year before they would submit my paperwork. The 6 months had to be consecutive. I had surgery this past Monday.
-
Day 3 for me as well. No nausea, but sore at the port site and sore neck. I started back on protein shakes yesterday and that's going well. I am making 1/2 serving. Seems just the right amount. Good luck everyone.
