N E 1 been Banded at Mt. Carmel col, oh
wildercrews replied to Lady Q T's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Special K - I saw Dr. Price on May 2 for my post op. All is well. Weight lost is 12 pounds in 2.5 weeks. He said that Dr. Choban will take it from here on out. "Judy" will schedule my first fill. Should I call in a week if I don't hear from anyone? Grammy in Columbus -
I was banded on April 14 and in the hospital 26 hours. The pain is probably gas. Except 2-3 weeks before you feel better. Good luck. Grammy in Columbus

Thank you! Answered all my questions. I have not had my first fill; 2 weeks post-op; but you made it look so painless. Thanks again. Grammy in Columbus

r-kane or z-pro meal replacements?
wildercrews replied to Parteetime's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Parteetimer - I have found unjury products do quite well. The Soup is OK but vanilla, strawberry and chocolate flavors are great. They provide samples. Welcome to the UNJURY Homepage Grammy in Columbus -
Unjury...Who likes it and who doesn't?
wildercrews replied to tyme4change's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Chicken soup is OK. Not great. I made a mistake and zap it the microwave - a mistake. You merely mix 8 oz of warm water to 1 scoop or package and stir. -

wildercrews replied to CaliGirl626's topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals
Caligirl - it's universal. I told my family I would wait until after the surgery to write a letter of complaint. It's the call backs or lack of call backs that frustrated me. Surgery was April 14. Grammy in Columbus -

Stepping Out On Faith

We walk this far by faith, lending on His every word. God places people and tools in our life to help us. You have made a wise decision. I am 7 days post-op, yes, some pain but doing OK. You find that this web site is great, a lot of wisdom found here. Be blessed. Grammy in Columbus -
This is the day that Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it! Day 7 post-op and doing great. This is a great web site.

Am I Too Old For Banding Opp
wildercrews replied to damienne's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It's day 7 post-op and I am doing pretty good. Sixty is the new 40! Going to get a pedicure so I can sport some fancy sandals for the summer. Get ready, get ready, get ready! Grammy in Columbus -
My surgeon's office also has a support group and post counseling. I am assuming this is included in the cost of the surgery. This is a great web site. Grammy in Columbus

Thanks for the invite. Would love to join the group. Yes, I posted an intro. -
You go, girl!!

I was told to consume 70 grams of protein daily. So I have 2 Unjury shakes plus 20 grams of Isopure protein water daily but I don't rush to bathroom - wish I did. I guess each person's system is different. I wonder if that is why I have so much gas. Please reply - anyone. Is it too much protein that causes gas pain??

ins. won't cover what now??
wildercrews replied to sandi1972's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Appeal their decision. I was denied twice but appealed it with help from my primary physican and surgeon. Ask them to assist you. Doc's know how to talk that insurance language. Be encouraged. -

Congrats! The gas is a killer. Walking will get rid of it - just walk, walk, walk. -

Hi!! I am 7 days post op and 10 lb weight lost. I return to work parttime for this week. Excited about that because I was getting borded. Need to talk to people other than my two kitties. I see Dr. Price on Friday for my post-op. Is his office ALWAYS that crowded?? Have a great day. Grammy in Columbus -
It is definitely a matter of prayer - to band on not to band. I am 6 days post-op and it is one the best things I have done for MYSELF. Be encouraged and continue to reach out to folks with positive outcomes. Grammy in Columbus

Greetings from Grrrl!
wildercrews replied to realizegrrrl's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
It's gas, baby. I live on Gas X. But it (gas) is only temporary. The more active you are, the less gas. -
My pain was miniminal. Took one pill a day at night for 3 days. The gas is what gets you. Recommend Gas X.
