Stabbing port area pain
Stephanie* replied to nfl1's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had that as well, mine was HORRIBLE my dr said it was possible when they closed up they put a stitch around a nerve, after 4 more days, it was better. hang in there -
Hi,
I know you were having some troubles with the ridiculous gas after surgery.... feeling better yet?
-
Do you burp more now that you are banded? (non-productive, just air)
Stephanie* replied to dustout's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I burp like a MAN! Its horrible!! lol and I have gas constantly and never did like this in my life!! Doesnt matter what I eat or drink I burp! Its crazy!!! -
I have a sweet tooth as well! I simply can not bring it in the house or I will eat it, I have no self control. I will "talk myself into it, saying to myself, well you have been doing so well, you deserve it, or look at all the fat free sugar free you eat, this isnt a big deal, but I have to tell myself I am only fooling myself. I am new to the band BUT still very tempted rules or not lol However to fill my sweet tooth (sounds gross I know but its good) I take one spoonfull of peanutbutter and 1/4 cup of cottage cheese, I melt the peanut butter and then ass the cottage cheese mix it up and its soooo good. Hang in there one day at a time, its a battle you will win!

Hey! Good to hear from you! I am so glad you are doing so well! I am doing much better, I later called my dr to talk about the pain I was having, this severe pulling, the nurse said it sounded like when they were closing up, they did a stitch aroung a nerve and I was feeling it pull on that nerve, it was totally unbearable! But I havent had any of that in 4 days, so all is well. I am starting to be able to eat more and I am ready for a fill LOL -
Hello dear, surgery was good, it was a rocky start but I am doing much better! I am ready to be where you are!

Hey Girl
I am doing good and don't worry it will get better! Just think you can lose 10 pounds just by laying on the couch. It will be worth it. Be strong and I will look forward to your updated photos!

i think water can be a cause of weight gain, inthe hosptial I of course had nothing for 2 days, I got out and gained 3 pounds, three days later it looked like I actually lost the 3 and then 2 more. -

surgery thurs and not doing so good
Stephanie* posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
So surgery was thursday and all went well. I felt great in the hospital. I get home, and cant seem to get much in. I was told 60 grms of protein, yea thats not happeing. Even when I drink water I feel so bloated and uncomfortable, takes forever for that to pass. I have gas like crazy, and then the worst, the port pain. I am wondering what I did to myself. I bent down earlier and it hurt so bad it took my breath away, I almost passed out, it feels like fishing wire is ripping thu my stomach on the right side where the port is. When I turn, strech, bend, anything, I feel it pull, what is really going on in there? Did I make a mistake? :scared2:
