Psych Evaluation...im nervous
d9leigh replied to jesse6657's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I thought my psych evaluation was weak also. they were more concerned about what my expectations were for surgery and to make sure I never had eating disorder . -
Ok, that's what I'm doing :-)

Havent lost any weight on mushies
d9leigh replied to d9leigh's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Me too, lost eight pounds since surgery and I'm not budging, it sucks and its a little scary -
I've been banded for two weeks. I take about 8 pills a day. Most of my pills need to be cut in half now and it feels so heavy on my stomach. Will taking pills get easier as I go?

I also had plication who I think made my stomach more sensitive due to swelling. Ya my doctor said just cut them and I've been fine. No "stuck" feeling or anything.

What I was Trying to say is, they go down fine but they are HEAVY on my stomach...

I'm hoping now that I'm banded my dr can start taking me off meds.

Does this go away or is this permanent?

I'm on day 7 .. With the shakes I get down about 40oz a day... Still figuring out difference between gas pain and hunger pain. I just can't tell.

1 week banded with plication
d9leigh replied to melodyj730's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Mrsinto- I haven't had a gall bladder for about 13 years. Because of this I've had an issue with bile in my stomach. I'm not a person that really gets nausea. I think everyone has their own rate at which they heal. I was in the hospital for 2 nights but if I didn't stay I feel like I would Have been readmitted due to dehydration. Basically I'm saying listen to your Body, everyone is different. -
