Pinkgirl1234 replied to KathyLynn160's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

Revision surgery hours away!
Pinkgirl1234 replied to Pinkgirl1234's topic in Revision Weight Loss Surgery Forums (NEW!)
Not sure about that..,I put on weight during my lapband waiting to be approved....because I could only eat slider foods....please make sure your doctors/nutritionist make a note that you are throwing up and can't keep a lot of food down....dependent on soft foods...inconsistent eating habits because of Gerd,slime and vomit episodes....make them notate this Everytime you see one.My NUT was great she didn't put pressure on me...because she understood...I had one NUT prior that didn't understand my woes...,handed me a diet chart and a measuring cup....I saw her once and that was it....How do you expect me to keep to a plan when You sometimes can't eat for hours... when you are able ...you have missed meals and want to eat the kitchen sink! You can't stick to a set diet plan because the band won't let you..... -
