Looking For Lap Band Buddies In St. Louis Area!!! :)
carpedeim replied to suzeeq67's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It has been slow progress but I am loosing. I have had one fill and am eating a lot less. Post surgery just follow the diet from your surgeon. I ate sugar free fudgsicles and no sugar Italian ice! It was a nice treat! I'll keep you posted! Slow but steady wins the race! -
Good advice! Thank you!

I had mine June 28! -
Banded on june 28th and have not had the success I thought I should by this time. I am not eating sweets or junk. My calorie consumption is way down. My question is what have your drs and nutritionist said about your diet? My diet is pretty open and probably not specific enough for me! I also know I can eat more at a sitting than I should be able to. Thoughts?

Help Me Get Some Pain Relief!

My doctor said to cut them in half and I had no problem! Helped me slot! -
I had horrible shoulder pain and used BenGay which helped tremendously.

I was told I can't ever take Alieve again. Too hard on my new stomach but it's my pain relief of choice! I had lots if nausea the first 24 hours and a horrible caffeine withdrawal headache. My doctor told me I could have a cup to help and it definitely did!

Thank you!!

I took them religiously for the first couple of days in liquid form but them weaned myself to Tylenol only, which I cut in half. I was anxious to get off the codeine and actually felt better.
