Looking for AZ Bandsters?
Irishflower79 replied to tfrdrix1's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You will have to let us know how that goes! I don't get a fill until Dec 9 So far so good just trying to be good and not cheat to much until I can have mushy foods Thursday! Love that a glass of V8 fills me up! -
Pain?
Irishflower79 replied to newlifebeginswithme's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was banded a day before you and I am still sore. Last night was actually the first time I had the dreaded left shoulder pain. To me it seems normal but if you are concerned please contact your doctor. Please keep us posted! Are you on the November bandsters treads? -
Wow sorry you are having such a rough bumpy start to your weight loss journey. I will definitely keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Please keep us posted.

Did you have the same tall good looking Anesthesiologist I had? That was my only complaint about the surgery center- they wouldn't let me take him home! I know he would have made me feel better quick lol- guess I shouldn't assume you are a woman as I can't see your profile and your screen name is Hope lol How are you doing? -
I'm 5 days post op. My doctors office follows the "green zone guidelines" and I have the no liquids 30min before or after meals. I don't think 30min being "stuck" "food just sitting there" is going to damage my "pouch"? Maybe I'm wrong but just my opinion and my doctors and that is what I will do!

So glad to hear these responses! I was really mourning popcorn when I was told I wouldn't be able to have it anymore. I will try once I'm at that food stage and chew chew chew and hope for the best!

Thank you for the post! Being only 5 days post op I am in the "what the heck did I do to myself stage!" It's nice seeing veteran bandsters so successful and knowing with hard work this tool can and will make me just as successful! -

Just got back from Seminar
Irishflower79 replied to billsgirl2013's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Honestly I'm starving BUT it's head hunger! I can move to mushy's on Thursday and can't wait! My muscles are sore but I think it's from sleeping wrong- trying not to sleep on my stomach and the fact the the incisions are on my upper fat roll lol and it needs support when laying down. The worst pain was actually peeling my fat rolls apart due to the iodine making them stick together. It's not a bad surgery at all You will do great! -
