What is wrong with me!!!
cliffordK replied to 09hotmama's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I'm 22 days post op and have lost 15 lbs. If you think about it that's not bad for not even one month. I was expecting to loose like you about 6 lbs. my first month. I get hungry every 2 hrs. I go March 2nd for my first fill. I'm glad you asked the question. I loose 15 gain 2 back then go down 2. I think it's fluid! -
To loose or not to loose.

My 6 months waiting/supervised diet was a formality for my insurance. I would gain 2 loose 2. This proves to the insurance you can not loose weight on your own. Your Dr. must know this?? If not, I just lucked out! -
Just got banded on and have a few questions
cliffordK replied to snowwhytequeen's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I am 15 days post op and my stomach still makes noise. It's hard for me to distinquish between digestion noises and hunger. I did get hungry so I just found things I could eat. Hang in there everyday gets better! -
Three days post op and full of gas
cliffordK commented on iradi8fortheusa's blog entry in One banded Bikers Journey
Use gas X strips! The gas goes away. I am 12 days post op and feel wonderful! 14 lbs. gone! -
My dr. required a 2 week diet. I did not do well on it. My surgery went fine. It is to shrink the liver. And your nutritionist is out of her mind! You will barely want water much less potein! I am 8 days post op and I struggle with the protein shakes. Good luck!

I am 8 days post op and I have not been doing good with my protein shakes. As far as the gurgling, I had that and they had to "unfill" my band some. I had 3.5 cc at time of surgery. My "lower" stomach makes racket and I don't know if it's hunger or what?

Go to www.drfrankfelts.com He is the best in Dallas! -
It's easy to let the "bad" comments worry you. Everyone is different. I have a great Dr. I know I can call anytime! I am 8 days post op and feel great! I have lost 13 lbs. in 8 days (most fluid I'm sure) My incisions are almost gone! The only thing I had to worry with was the trapped gas from the surgery. Get Gas X strips and move around after surgery. I had mine on Wed. and was back to work on Monday. I would have came in sooner, but my Dr. doesn't let you drive for 3 days. Good Luck!

I had to go in for an un-fill then I was fine. CALL YOUR DR. IMMEDIATELY!

Thanks! I thought I was the only one. It could be the gas I guess. I will start again on my gas X.
