Dr. Aaron Hoffman - Lap Band done in Buffalo, NY (Dr. Hoffman)
brubear replied to loraine's topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals
Judy thank you for your encouragement. I am also starting to get excited and nervous, like Rain. I am so tired of jumping through the hoops, which I know are there for a reason. I just want to lose at my pace and not worry about the weigh ins. -

When my husband had his final weigh in they told him that if he had gained any weight since the last weigh in they would cancel the surgery. -

I lost 12 pounds, but since last weigh in I am struggling with two pounds on two pounds off. Right now the two pounds are on. My husband had no problem going back, he is actually out fishing as we speak. -

My husband feels great today. He went back to work the thursday after surgery, (Monday). He had a very large hiatal hernia, so his surgery took alittle longer. It ended up being about an hour and 15 minutes. I still am alittle nervous. Mostly about my last weigh in. I just do not want to have gained weight or they will cancel surgery. The process is long enough and I really don't want to wait any longer then I have to. -

My hubby is feeling good, still alittle sore at incision sites, but good. He actually went back to work today. He also learned the hard way not to drink too fast. Nausea, dry heaves and sweating. -

Judy, I am in the same place as you, SB and worrying about surgery. I know I need it, any surgery can be alittle daunting elective surgery a bit more I guess. Hang in there. -

Hi bugsbuni70, I also have small children 3 and 2 who do not like their mommy gone at night. I know mine are smaller and can't understand as much as a 6 year old, but I will just explain that I have to go overnight but not to worry I would tuck them in the next night. -

You have to meet with the dietician twice. First time at the 3 hour and then once again so she can weight you and check your progress with SBeach. -
Hi, I am also on June 23rd. How exciting. Good luck.
