    Is this possible

    Ok fellow banders, it has been a while since I've been on but I have a concern. Please let me know if this has happened to anybody else out there. I was banded 10/15 starting weight was 284 I have had 3 fills the first two fills I really felt no restriction and my weight was stuck at 255lbs. On 4/9/09 I had the fill under the fluroscopy and it took my doctor the longest time to find my port(this has never happened with his office visit). But this time i had the best restriction I have ever felt since surgery. I was a little discouraged because i went to two visits and didn't lose neither did I gain but I thought it was because I incorporated weights into my workout regiment. Now I did lose clothes sizes (inches). So now since 4/9/09 I have lost 8lbs now I am 247 and I feel good...and I have so much restriction I am actually satisfied with my smaller portions. Do you guys think it is possible that my doctor MISSED PUTTING THE SALINE IN THE PORT WHEN I WAS AT MY TWO OTHER DOCTOR VISITS?:wink:

  8. Hello!

    My doctor is having me go on clear liquids for 2 days before surgery. He also is putting me on neomycin, which is an antibotic which kills the bacteria in the colon. Every physician is different, though.

    Pre-op DONE!

    Hey honey, You will do fine...just continue to pray...I have a question....I am getting banded on 10/15....and my doctor did not put me on a liquid diet. I have been reading these blogs for about two weeks now and it seems that most of the people were on a pre-op liquid diet. Did your doctor put you on one...since you are so close to surgery as well?

    Liquid Diet Pre-Op

    Hi, I was very interested in the different doctors orders as well because i say my doctor on Wed....and he did not put me on the liquid diet...I started my own portion controlled diet about two weeks ago...but on Wed...my doc went over the surgery details with me, I saw the dietician for post-op ways of eating and that was it. Now I am due to be banded on Wed...Oct. 15th I wonder if this should be a concern to me....Is there anybody else whose doctor did not put them on a liquid diet before banding??? Please respond....I am quite concerned now...

    Any October Bandsters!??!?!

    Congrats honey...I will be getting banded on 10/14....hope all goes well...and keep in touch...because I am a nervous/excited wreck right now...but hey next time you check in...let me know if you had to do the whole liquid diet 2 weeks before surgery. Because as I was reading the blogs alot of people did..but my doctor didn't require me to do it.
