My big day is almost here! Good luck to those getting banded tomorrow and the rest of the week!
-
Just checking in with everyone. How's everyone doing?
Who's getting banded with me this week?
-
During one of the informational sessions I had to attend, my surgeon mentioned this and also encouraged it.
-
Jeez! How long were you even at the hospital???? That was FAST! My surgery is EARLY on the 29th and I have to stay the night. That's going to stink!!!!
I have to spend the night too. At first I really wanted to come home the same day. But the more I think about it the more I like the idea of having someone take care of me.

This pre-op diet is making me go to the bathroom a lot not to be gross. Anyone else experience this?YES!!! The same with me. Finally today, day 5 hasn't been too bad. But we will see what tomorrow brings. I have no idea what causes this.

I'm sick right now. I have a viral thing that won't go away. My surgeon says if it's not gone by the 21st' date=' my surgery (scheduled for the 23rd) will be postponed I shudder to think that I'll go the full 2 weeks on this pre-op diet then have to do it again...[/quote']Hope you feel better!

I just finished day 2 of my pre-op diet which is three shakes and one small meal a day.
I'm wondering if anyone else has had any issues going to the bathroom a lot? Is this normal during the diet?

Mine is a week from Monday. And I can think about is how to keep from getting sick. People at work are all sick. I need to be in a bubbleThis is my biggest fear... Getting sick! I'm trying to stay away from my sick coworkers and was my hands as much as possible.

Went for my pre-op testing today and pre-op diet starts on Wednesday!! Two weeks away. I'm finally getting excited!!
-

Hi everyone!
I start my pre-op diet soon and I'm trying different brands.
Has anyone tried Designer whey? Any opinions?
Thanks!

Hi everyone,
I'm new and wasn't sure where to post this question so I figured I'd start at this board.
I don't have my surgery date yet but I'm slowly getting there. My question is... Are there any alternatives to Tylenol? I know ibuprofen and NSAID's are out of the question but I have a Tylenol allergy so that's out of the question as well.
I have an appointment in a few weeks and i was told the Dr. and i woukd be going over it then but I didn't want to wait to find out.
Thanks for the help.

It's better than not losing at all right? How much have you lost so far?
-
I'm sure it's not easy trying to get back in track. How are you feeling after your fill?

I've come across another thread where someone didn't get a full for almost two years. maybe it's not unusual. Can I ask which doctor or which office you go to? If you don't mind sharing. Im not happy with the office I contacted in providence. They are making me wait until November to even sit with the doctor for my consultation.
-
I'm good. Have you been banded yet? I just started my journey. Trying to decide if I want a doctor from the area or travel to Boston.
-
Welcome!! I didn't think anyone came around to this board anymore!
How are you?

Hi everyone! I'm new here. I recently decided that weight loss surgery is the best choice for me. In my Quest in finding as much as info as possible I came across this forum. Everyone seems so nice and positive as well as full of information.
I recently contacted a surgeon who mailed me a questionerre I had to fill out and they will contact me with an appointment once the doctor has looked over my info. It feels like its taking forever! I just want to get the ball rolling.
I look forward to hearing everyone's story.

Hello everyone! It looks like its been quite a while since anyone has posted on this board but I figured I would try and say hello.

Is everyone getting the amount of Protein they should daily? I just can't do it. I may call the nutritionist tomorrow for alternatives. I'm at day 5 post op. I feel ok and am drinking just fine but the shakes are just too much to get down.
