I had another doctor in that office and pre op was Clear liquids day before. Then in the other class they will go over post op diet good luck I had mine the 5th and did great in the hospital. ....but been having lots of trouble with nausea the past 2 weeks I go down Tuesday. ...but they keep telling me it will go away.....2 weeks and it has not.

I had surgery on the 5th and the first week or so was ok....now I feel like death everyday nausea dry heaves no engry it awful. I drink and eat very little for I cant stand the smell of anything. I have less engry now then every......I have become a horrible wife snd mom for moving makes me sick. Why is this happening I did this to help my life and it is worse.

I was postpone so much it ended up being 8 mo. I'm just now for sure having my surgery on the 5th.

I speak from experience take it minute to minute. I had the band put in 97 lost 60 pounds.:-) Had the band taken out because it made me sick and I could not lose weight and was going to go straight to by pass.....ooppps Woke up on 12/12/12 and heard there was to much damage you have to weight 6 mos. Well the weight I lost has crap on yeah:-) not ! In a week I get for the 3rd time in my life hoping for success I start the pre opt diet.:-) For the most part I`ve greatful because I have learned that my struggle is way beyond me to go through this and still not be successful on my own shows me that I was not lazy in making this decsions.

After doing all the pre diets and showing up for surgery and woke up to ur band done so much damage we did not do the bypass we can wait and do it later.....was so ready to begin my mind was prepared and I did the liquid diet which was hard to get ready physically so upset!! Won't know more now till after the new year now:-( Dawn<br />Sent from my SPH-L710 using RNYTalk

Well the lap band just messed my stomach up and I like my doc it just couldn't be seen it is just discouageing. Heal is first then the bypass so 6 mo's from now if I remember from recovery I walk and eat right and lost on the band but bc of the problems it was causing is why I needed a resiovon just sad I thought I would be past this point. Not going to have to be in a holding pattern. I also have to belatedly not to gain and loose to much to change my bmi or could create a hole other can of worms Dawn<br />Sent from my SPH-L710 using RNYTalk

Went in this am for am for am revision and came out not done!well, things headed south we my surgery began 2 hours late. Then I woke up! To hear they where unable to do the by pass. The band had done so much damage that it would not have healed . So,It will be end of Mat/June to finish I am crush10. Why!Why! Super devastated. Dawn<br />Sent from my SPH-L710 using RNYTalk

Had the last of the tests to day so for sure 12-12-12!! Long day at the hospital! getting the last few list of thing together and then I think I'll wrap gifts so I am all done with Christmas stuff and can focus on sip, walk , repeat! Lol!! I am nervous, excited, nervous and scared! I thought I had this all together with having the band. Nope not at all. Oh, have to get sitter and such oh my I did not want to have to much ready in case it got postponed........did not wanna jinks it!!! Here we go the count down is on!

Well, 7 days to go and having melt down. Can I do this? What if I fail again. I am a reviaion from a lapband? I lost 60-70lbs with my band. but have had so many helth issues? and this LIQUID diet is making me crazy! I want to losse this last 100lbs. I am not even sure I will b/c of already having surgery?? Grrrrr

Thanks... I am hoping this is just a moment! but t has been crazy!! I have to say I did my band in 2007 and they were not as throuro in education and such so I guess I went in blind and dumb! Now I know more and maybe that makes it alittle more scary! if that even makes sense......I did not go through any classes or nothing till I ran into trouble ...... I had a panflet I left the hospital with and followed that......Till I found a doctor that would take me even though he did not do the surgery and then I got help but that was so many years later. They are doing a great job now but way different then before on education. I am scare it won't work since the last one did not work 100%. I think that is my biggest fear.

Congrats......you look great!!! Hope I can get there!!

Congrats, I am doing a revison too super worried I may not loose any weight so glad to see your post and way to go!!

I am on the 12th and for some reason over thes last few days have become a bundle of nevres. I feel like I can not say anything for I want this! Who do you talk to about this??? Not to sound stupid! To top it off I am a revision from the bad to bypass! So it is not like I have not done this before?? However this is very differnt. I wonder if that is not the part that is scaring me. Or maybe it is the Doctor that did my band retired and they did not do all these classes I just had to figure it out. Knowing and planning and "doing it right" might be the problem kinda. Even those I was successful somewhat on the band it caused me many health issues and for years I would not tell anyone b/c I did not want to tell anyone about another fail diet! To go through surgery and still fail how could that happen?? So, I know that worries me so much. What if this doesn't work? What if I never loose this 100 pounds I have left. What if I can't get enough protien? Or I forget how to take the vitiams? Or I throw up all the time light I did with the band (till I went on all liquids). Am I ever going to feel human? The cunsoler thinks it is just b/c of being sick for so long and trying to carry it alone and not telling anyone why the fear. I agree but it does not make it go away. I am 7 days wow 7 I feel like there is so much to do but yet there is really not. I got Christmas bought for the kids. I am working on the Christmas Cleaning. That also keeps me busy. I have all the shakes, cups, container vitiams and stuff bought. I am ready. A few more loads of laundry and I'll pack a small bag. Deep Breath 7 days I am so nervous I am not even like this. WHAT IS GOING WRONG!!! UGH!! Ok pull it together!! Thanks for the venting so needed that sorry for the crazy noone I cared to share with here I guess did not want to feel judged!!

Had diet class and case manager meeting today wow flash of reality! Feeling overwhelmed! Pre op testing Friday. ..... Dawn<br />Sent from my SPH-L710 using RNYTalk
