Can you get de-banded a week after being banded?
Erin18 replied to Erin18's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
thanks I have some and it don't taste good to me lol -
okay I will let you know (:
-
ahh thanks (:

My face is really broke out is it from worrying? Or change in diet? What kind of face stuff is the best like neutragena or clean and clear?
-
i cant drink a full glass of water in an hour, im always getting a new glass (these are tall glasses) once school starts ill be having water bottles for school during the day. but yeah, it could be why. i only wash my face once and thats at night, sometimes i do it twice a day. i use clean and clear oil-free continuous control acne wash and it doesnt seem to be helping. my acne started getting worse at week 3 probably, i wanna try the acne free, i looked it up and a lot of people like it

awesome I'll look for those :frown:

awh thank you

I was banded July 31st, I was on clear liquids for a week, full liquids for a week, started mushy/pureed on aug 15th, on pureed for two weeks, supposed to be on solids now but can barely eat anything without getting nauseated and I don't nessarally think it's my stomach that making me nauseated, I actually think it's my throat that's making me nauseated, it feels like there's phlegm in there or something. I'm pretty sure I'm getting enough water if I don't my stomach gets really upset I can get sugar free Popsicles down. I just hope he figures out what it is that's making me sick =
-
ah I see okay (:
-
so wait is it like a barium swallow? Cause I had to drink chalky stuff and they watched on a screen and took x-rays I had to have that done on aug 7th to make sure everything was good cause I had bad nausea and everything was fine
-
okay thanks (: And youre awake with the upper GI right? And the chalky stuff is like numbing stuff? I have really bad gag reflexes. I can't wait till he can sort it out for me. Nope it's my last year of high school (:
-
the only thing I don't have is heartburn, I can get Water and proteing drinks, sugar free Popsicles down I just can't get food down or even Soups without feeling like I gotta vomit =$ hope the dr finds out what's wrong cause I'd like to be better before school starts which is the 8th = Tell me if they find anything and if I have to get the upper GI or an endoscopy done does it hurt? I think I have reflux cause it burns in my throat sometimes Thanks (:

What does PB mean?

productive burp, it's not actual burping, you regurgitate what you ate that got stuck, and it's painful o.O -
I feel a little better but when I eat something I feel nauseated, still get dizzy when getting up, and that feeling is still in my throat, two more days till I see my dr, can't come any sooner argh!

Should just stay on mushies this week?
Erin18 posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Most of you know I was sick all week and didn't have much of an appetite but I tried eating but couldn't get alot down before I felt nauseated. I got some sugar free Popsicles down and half of yogurt and protein shakes and water. So I was supposed to start solid food yesturday but should I just stick to mushies for the week? I'm also kind of scared to start solids anyways, I don't wanna get sick again plus school is starting soon -

thanks i see my nutritionist and my dr wednesday -
I was banded July 31st, my dr requested 1 week clear liquid(couldn't get anything down besides water and a little bit of protein drink) due to nausea, 1 week full liquids nausea began to get better and I was able to have some soup, some diet snapple, some Gatorade G2, 2 weeks of mushies, had some oatmeal, sweet potatoes, Gatorade G2 , water, pureed chicken, and mashed veggies. On aug 21st I ate something wrong and that was those new cheetos that like melt in your mouth (literally) and I've been like sick since then and haven't been able to eat much got water and protein shakes down tried to get some soup down but it made me feel nauseated, I had a regular mashed potato and it went down fine one day, I got sugar free Popsicles and no sugar added fudgicles I got some yogurt down like a little more than half way empty before I felt nauseated, had some mashed veggies, and today all I had was a yogurt, a Popsicle, two fudgicles, and a sweet potato and two protein shakes and when I had the sweet potato, it made me feel nauseated like what the heck, I see my dr on Wednesday, hopefully he can figure why I'm getting nauseated when I eat and why ive been sick all week grr what is B12 I know it's a vitamin but what kind?

there's gotta be somebody out there lol

yeah i know but is it safe to basically go from not being able to really eat anything all week to go straight to solids? im still kind of sick i dont want to make myself sick more, ya know? the only thing im scared about eating solids is getting sick like i have been, i still have to see my dr, maybe my band is too tight idk what are some good choices to eat? that taste good too i guess im just nervous too -
how much gas can one person hold?
Erin18 replied to kitkat61's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
try having someone pat your back, walking around does help get rid of it, it helped me get rid of mine. I think it lasted 3-4 days. It was so long ago I can't remember haha I was banded July 31st, try a heating pad that also helps (: it'll go away before you know it :wub: -
haha mine itch really bad, im gonna wait til i see my dr so he can tell me what i can use to make sure

4 more days can't come sooner
Erin18 replied to Erin18's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I think I was too cause I started feeling better last night and I still feel better but I better hope it stays that way -
I see my dr and I can't wait!! Hopefully he finds out what's wrong. I hate when you have plans, you feel fine and up to it then at the last minute you have to cancel it. Had plans to go to the movies yesturday, planned for a month then I didn't feel I could make it, I feel horrible cause I couldn't get ahold of my friend ): then today I was going to go to Albany, woke up with nausea and I couldn't make it that far (about 3 hours away) I went shopping online, atleast I got the things I wanted, usually the store doesn't. Anyways it's been a week being sick I went from being 212 to 202 since last Saturday! I have a feeling once I start feeling better and eating mushies again it'll go back up ugh. It's scary that my Tongue is White like it was my first week post op, I can't remember how I got rid of it. The nausea I thought that if I took my nausea meds itll help me get back but they don't they helped me get back to normal before, so weird and I can't take them anymore cause apparently I'm alergic to them, DANG! Well I think there's something wrong hopefully we find out what it is. I wrote down how im feeling. As long as I'm home I can wait til my appointment on the 2nd itsthe only time I can get in so yeah! Okay I just wanted to talk

What does it feel like when your band slips?
Erin18 replied to flab2fabdiva's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I've wondered too. I thought I read somewhere if you regurgitate then it might have slipped. But I would get checked by your dr -

so do I, I'm praying he knows, I'd be so lost if he can't find any. School starts on the 8th and to be honest, I'm scared. Like if I get sick and end up missing school, it's starting to make me sad): BOO! =
