Celebrating a big thing without food
CaliCozyWozy replied to Big2Tiny's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Or u could just eat off his plate -- it's kind of a waste to order ur own -- and not too classy to bring ur own -- just have them dish up ur food on a saucer -

Dizzy & Light headed
CaliCozyWozy replied to snapy17's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I think it's lack of food and/or not enough water -- blood pressure can elevate when u don't have enough water which can cause the dizziness -
One more thing-- I get the hiccups or burps when I'm hungry or full but it's been like that since the band
-
My band for so tight one time I couldn't swallow spit I feel so much better without it -- u will too!
-
I hated the stuck feeling and having to force myself to throw up for relief
-
It's a totally different feeling than the band -- u cannot force urself -- u will know when to stop (at least in the beginning -- I made shrimp and crab enchiladas and was only able to eat 1/2 of an enchilada and was done for the evening -- just like anything -- try different things and see how it works for u-- try ur best to stick to the post op diet -- it's the time when ur insides are healing

I had my revision procedure 2/23 and am down 30 pounds and am feeling like that may have been the best decision ever

Can we drink out of straws?
CaliCozyWozy replied to Lovelyladybee's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have been drinking from a straw since day 3 post op and haven't had any problems -- I think they tell u not to because it can cause gas -- I haven't had this issue at all -- just like with side effects from certain medications-- it may or may not effect u -
Those who have had mini bypass
CaliCozyWozy replied to soccermom2's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
I had the mini bypass on Feb 23 in Mexico and am down 28 pounds as of today I went from the Lap Band and the scar tissue from the revision is the only pain I felt-- I have had very little gas and not acid reflux at all -- $7200 is what I paid but so worth it -- in the states for the same surgery they wanted $14000
