Can You Please Help Me Get Back On Track :-(
line-dancer replied to John Picone's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I are sure you will get a fill when u go in? I would think you doctor would want to chat with you and have you see the nurtisit, and get you on a pre work diet like a pre-op diet. Have you don't any prep work? clean out your house. really talk to the doctor maybe get cusloring I recommend all this first set yourself up for success none of the pit fall of the first time, make a list of things that didn't work that you can change now it might help. Good luck and congradulation on getting back on track you can do it. -

5.8 ccs and im not in green zone
line-dancer replied to Blondie638's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
well, you still have to be on a diet and follow the rules putting down you fork between bits helps. For band doesn't supply restriction but I feel satisfied after eating my one cup and I don't get hungry in the same way. The best thing I like about it is that I don't think about food all the time and it doesn't seem to call to me. I had a 10 cc band and 6.5cc in it and it was perfect so you just might need a bit more. good luck you can do this -

3 days post umbilical hernia and LapBand nausea
line-dancer replied to sugarmagnolia's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
call doctor and get med for the nausa use your heating pad 24/7 drink something hot helped my hunger. Cream soup (made with water) was my life saver. It does get a lot better hand in there -
Go to the baby section in you local food store and get the spoons there. they are the perfect size for us banders. Do NOT gag or try to throw up this is very hard on the band and will cause it to slip I just went threw this and had to have my band emptied, I one of the lucky ones sometimes they have to remove it right away. For that reason take very small bits, chew the hell out of it and wait between bits you will learn from your body. Follow the doctor orders. If you feel stuck (which means the chest where the band is) drink something hot and stop eating.

1st fill tomorrow.....scared!!!!
line-dancer replied to meganb0216's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
my doctor has me lift my the to make my mucels push the port top then its a pin prick and off I go. Nothing to be scared about..like getting you flue shot which I hope everyone did. -
You are eating some hard things right now. any thing that you can wod up in a ball like bread will get stuck pasta and rice aren't good either. I made my own veggie soup and then ground up chicken to put in it to get the protient with out the problems. Be very gental to you bsnd for a long time. You doctor should have given you a list of food to NOT eat keep re-reading it so you never have problems.

line-dancer replied to adugan's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
why did you get scared? some consoling will help you explore this as well as help you work with the whole process my doctor offers that . Y.ou might want to look into that all support is good this is a big chance and it is great -
heating pad are a life saver and poop stool softners or milk of magnisa worked for me this is all normal not fun but worth it and as you loss weight this wont even be a memory. Rest, heat ,walk and poop.
