JULY 2013 BAND BUDDIES
aviva1979 replied to sprinkle715's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Trying activated charcoal for gas. Gas-x hasn't helped me. Walking helps some but not entirely. Hopefully this moves a bit of the gas in my cavity outta my life! -

Feeling something akin to a pulled muscle where i believe the port is. Currently most painful part of healing for me. -
Where is the port, exactly?

Anyone got a fave you use via cooking it in with order foods? I tried unjury in iced tea once and found it gross. I'm approaching the mushy stage and intrigued by getting some additional protein by sprinkling in some powder to my puréed soups.

Glad it all worked out ok 4 did not hurt. The fifth was immediately resistant so I didn't push it and just left it on there. -
Date set: July 11th - any other July banders?

Can you ask your doc for more? I've also been using liquid ibuprofen from the drug store and it helps. -
You were beautiful before and you look fantastic now! Congratulations!

Birthcontrol while banded

I'm making my poor hubs use condoms. He is less than thrilled. But I just don't want to go thru the hormonal swings I get with pills and its important to me to get healthy before we start trying for a kid again. -
Way to go! You look great!

Hang in there! Ice packs on my upper tummy helped me a lot. -

I've been considering buying one - this thread just convinced me!

I know all of our care varies, but if you are looking for something as a reference, fashionstylist- I could scan the booklet I got my from nutritionist for you. Maybe you could show your doc and make sure they are cool with it? I got something really comprehensive.

My husband has been 1000% supportive of the band but if I get a "skinny vagina" he's gonna die. It's one of his favorite soft places on me.

This one has me the most concerned. It is the least painful of the bunch but there is a deeper "seam" on it. And it is not all that deep - I've cut myself deeper and been fine. I'm just obsessing. -

It is with surpassing joy that I report my second BM (after two stool softeners last night) was normal and easy breezy! -

I also mix the powder. I mix vanilla unjury with skim milk. For strawberry I mix with Water sometimes and also lite lemonade is good. I personally keep the ratio with 1 scoop per 8oz. It helps me make sure I'm taking in enough liquid each day. -
