Dairy or milk in particular is made to create 500 lbs beast. I rarely drink it anyhow, only in my coffee and when I have cookies (lol). -
Just found out my husband is trying to cheat!
prettyandbrwn replied to takingaleap's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I'm not saying she is responsible. It something in him. I'm just saying speak to him. See what's going on in his mind. Then from there make the best decisions for her and her children. -
I will employ both my boyfriend and daughter to aide in avoiding the dreaded gas pain.

That other woman is fulfilling a void. Speak to him about how he feels what you both can do to be better. Also when you go looking for trouble, you almost always find it. -
How many days off work?
prettyandbrwn replied to futureformerfattie's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
My surgery is on the 3rd of April which is a Thursday. I am off Thursday Friday and Sundays, I have decided not to return to work until the 15th because of how my job is. I work at a desk, but it's super micromanaged,and I do not need the stress of bored supervisors. I. Addition to that, I have seen the agony people are in when they return to work three days post op, I would rather be in my Jammies at home than a monkey suit at work in pain and dealing with crabby clients. -

I see you all saying you have dairy, and lots of it. My nutritionist at the surgery center told me to stay away from dairy. I am confused,how are you all still angle to have it, and a lot at that? -
My surgery date is 4/3/2014, and this pain scares me. I've never had gas or heart burn. I have seen the pain in others and I do not want it.

I am scheduled to be banded on April 3rd, I am excited and nervous at the same time. Scared because I seen the pain in my coworker after her surgery. I am taking 9 days off from work to be comfortable in my home.

That's my biggest reward. I cannot wait to be comfy in shorts. I actually wore shorts for the first time since I was 13 this past summer because it was so darn hot here. -

Hello people! I am so excited, today my procedure was approved by my health insurance, my only question now is, how long is the recovery time? My doctor's office said four days, but there is a girl here that had her surgery on Thursday came back to work on Sunday and she she is soooooo much pain. I cannot do that. As it is now, I am a light weight when it comes to drinking and pain medicine makes me loopy. With that said, how do they expect you to drive to work in pain? Tomika

I actually took 9 days off I only work 4 days a week, so....I am only using 50 hours vacation. I hope it goes smooth. I can't wait.

Ok. I'd like to believe my pain tolerance is high, but after watching my coworker, I am not sure I can come to work in the same state she did. I have a desk job but it's micromanaged, I work in a call center. Not only that but the environment is stressful.

That's sooooo long. Lol but I will also have hernia repair, I guess I have to refrain from it. He should be ok...lol

Right, lol I am definitely not dying for no sex.... Lol thanks ladies!
