Hey there. My inscisions are sore, sometimes even sting, doctor says its nerve endings regrowing. I have an appointment on Thursday Im hoping the doctor says I can work out again...walking isnt cutting it. How are you? I also started mushies early and am onto regular food, I dont think theres anything I cant eat which I find a bit scary but I also cnt eat as much as before but still more than I would hope. Im definitely looking forward to my first fill.

OMG Debbie I would be PISSED! As it is I ended up gettign banded a day late (so yesterday) On the day of my surgery I got a call at 6:30 asking me where I was...my scheduled check in time was 9:30 so I was totally confused. THEY CHANGED THE SCHEDULE BUT NEVER TOLD ME!!! So my surgery was supposed to be at 7:30AM. GRR. So I booked down there and they cancelled me. I ran home grabbed my paperwork and went to the surgeons office where I demanded to speak to the office manager and that I wasnt leaving until I had a new appointment within the next 24hours. I took the week off from work, the fuck up was theirs not mine so I wasnt going to let them reschedule me for 2 months later we were DOING THIS TODAY OR TOMORROW! Amazing what someone will do when you confront them on their screw up in person. I was sceduled for surgery for yesterday at 11:45. So today I am home, sore but happy. I glad I demanded and didnt back down. I hope things work out for you. Just dont let them move your date again. Seriously put your foot down, but whatever you do dont mention lawyers, they shut down and your surgery will be put off indefinitely. (My mom works in a doctors office she gave me pointers on how to work them) I am sorry to hearabout your delay, truly I am, but just wait and see how rewarding it is when its all done. Youll be sore and tired but Ive never felt more brave or satisfied with a decision Ive made in my entire life. Best of luck Debbie, please know you can always drop me a line to bitch or get some moral support. Youre almost there. -
OMG! I did the same thing. My fiancetook me out for a super romantic dinner the night before and I ate the yummiest food and drank a bottle of wine. But now Im on my pre op diet and not hungry but craving food. Stupid head! Get with the program! *sigh* Its hard to retrain the brain. How are you holding up pre op?

Hey there. Sorry its been awhile since I hopped on the computer. Trying to get my house etc straightened out so I wont have to worry about it after surgery. Im on my pre op liver shrinking diet now. Just shakes up to 6 a day, but Im only drinking about four of them and i switch one out for chicken broth, not sure if Im supposed to do that or not but I needed to feel like I was eating a meal. But Ive already lost like 5 pounds in 2 days so I guess Im doing alright. Has your port pain reduced at all?

Urban Myth or Truth???
lenore1890 replied to MissBS's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
i had to attend a nutrition class before i could get approved for surgery. after completeing the class they gave me the card. It says: "Comprehensive Weight Loss Management (thats the name of the program Im getting surgery through) 'This person is a patient of the Comprehensive Weight Management Program who has had bariatric surgery. The surgery reduces the size of the stomachto a half cup capacity. Please allow this person to order from the appetizer, children's or senior menu, in that small sizes are critical to care. Thank you.'" Now my fiance and I usually go to the same few restaurants and the people there know us pretty well so I havent had to use it yet. But the seniors menu is pretty decent and usually has healthy options. If your surgeon didnt give you one after surgery ask them for one when you go in for a fill or make one for yourself, the card I have is just a business card. I laminated it to make it look a little more official. -

Master Cleanse Lemonade Diet
lenore1890 replied to LeslieR041906's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi Im actually in the middle of the master cleanse right now. I am pre surgery though. You not only drink the lemonade but you drink a laxative tea at night and do a saline flush in the morning. Im doing it to cleanse my liver before surgery. The liver and kidneys process toxins in the body and when its overloaded with chemicals and antibiotices from your food it stores it in your fat so as you lose fat you release the toxins back into your body. Im hoping to eliminate the toxins BEFORE losing the weight. so my body liver and kidneys can focus on getting the fat out haha. but mostly because its good for your skin and other organs in the body. Im not hungry but I crave foods...talk about the epitome of weight gain. Eating not because your hungry but siply because you WANT something. haha. Im learning alot about myself. As for after surgery my only concern might be dehydration during the flush. Otherwise I dont see why you COULDNT do it.Hope this helped. -

Awesome goals, and even better gifts to self! Indiana to Ohio? No good doctors in Indiana? Or health insurance complications? So would you be coming ove r to the U.S.??? Where??? I think a cruise would be awesome. Sign me up. I havent been on a real vacation in forever...unless you count camping in the next state over where I can wear baggy clothes and hide out around the fire. Id love to show off my new shape someplace warm with others who have been on the same journey. The second is coming up...you must be so psyched! Have you started your liquid diet yet? -
