I never noticed till my surgery on Monday how many food commercials there are on tv? It's a cruel joke. I'm starving but trying very hard to stay on course. -
Congrats, I was also banded on Monday. I walk and swing my arms around & that has helped a lot.
-
I was banded on Monday & woke up with a tube (there were complications that requires a 2nd one). The sore throat hurts for 2 days but thank God no more. Don't worry have faith and you'll be fine. Good luck

Question about medications post op
Alivami@12 replied to downysoft's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm on several meds & take them whole. I take the meta early. Just take one at a time, spread it out. Feel better -
Meant to say that walking seems to reduce pain. Hope you feel better
-
I feel more pain today than yesterday. I get and walk.
-
Good for you. I just got on the scale and went up 2lbs. So far so good on broth

July 1 2013 band day
Alivami@12 replied to readysetg070113's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was also banded on the first. Happy Independence Day to you all. I was discharged this morning (breathing complications) but no real pain. So happy about that, I've been walking a little bit of jello, broth & ice pops. So excited but must still rest. Good luck to us all. -
Hello, I'm confused how much broth, pops, jello should I consume in the days after surgery? I've read many source that recommend no more than 3oz and aim for 64 oz but is that 64 oz of broth & water/ice. How many jellos? Going nuts already but excited.
-
Thank you for the advice. Thank God for this support group.
-
Good for you!!!!

Thank God it's over, not that bad pain is mostly at port area & minimal asthma attack during procedure but all is good. I stayed over night as recommended for treatment but I must say all is well no hunger just dry mouth. On a note: for any/all that takes meds make a list of dosage & not only make a note on phone but email yourself a copy & whomever is taking you plus paper. I only did digital & cyberspace stole it. On a funny note: after hours of no Water they ask for urine sample & I dropped it in the toilet. Way to go. I was allowed a do over later. Good luck to all banders.

I'm so sorry about your situation but I strong fly believe that this is not the time for the surgery. God/life/karma have a wowed way of realigning us when we're off course or headed for danger. Keep positive. If you dream it, it will happen.

Surgery Tomorrow Morning
Alivami@12 replied to Deb_Believes's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My surgery is tomorrow same time. God luck. I'm cleaning as well. The funny part is my mom is all nervous she made me broth and accidentally dropped a note into the container & when I showed her, her response was "oh, that's where I left it". When I check in tomorrow I'm going to ask the dr to give her a Valium and me extra to deal with her. Ha ha. All will be good. -
Congratulations, keep up the happy feelings.

Today is my last day to eat and drink.....
Alivami@12 replied to kbush's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Good luck. I like the idea of mixing the clear I to crystal light. I bought some ice pop makers to creat my own frozen treats. -
Today the hospital called to confirm for Monday. So grateful 3 days in counting. Purchased the vitamins, crystal light, gas x, loose clothing,etc. the only thing ill miss is not being able to drive for a while. How long do most dr's recommend?
-
To mamasass: thank you ill keep you in my prayers as well. We're going to be fine.

I'm scheduled for 9:30. Can't wait. I just hope my mom won't freak me out. She's been a bit on edge for days, she gets like that for everything. I'm calm, she's like Felix unger on speed and I'm Oscar. Ha ha ha.
