Oh Hun!!! First off all- there is nothing wrong with you!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not inside or out. Having this surgery is going to be life changing for you. As for me- right after surgery I was still able to eat a lot of food and actually gained weight (a lot of weight) but I kept going and getting my fills and tried to drink shakes more than food. It takes relearning how to eat. It sounds like you're being an emotional eater right now and there is nothing that is going to change that behavior until recognize and work through it with a professional. Stick with getting your fills and try to add ONE 30 minute workout a week then the following week add two 15 minute workouts... each week just try to eat little, OH AND DRINK A LOT OF A WATER!!!!! If you ever need to talk please reach out to me. -

Stomach Virus + Band = NO FUN!

I actually had the same feeling and thought it could've slipped but then as I just didn't eat or drink and just rested like literally didn't move for 24 hrs just got up for bathroom it slowly got better. Now I just feel like I was in a bad fight and I'm really sore all over torso. Going to see the lapband doc soon. DON'T want to get unfilled... finally feel like I'm getting the hang of this. -

OMG! I thought I was the only one who went through this. I thought I was literally going to die. I was in so much pain that instead of the dry heaving I opted to kinda tilt myself over so whatever was in the bottom half of my stomach would come up. I had it for about 2- 3 days... Completely MISERABLE!!!! Now I just have a lot pain in my shoulders and a nagging headache and a bit of pain when I breathe but I was able to keep down a shake so I don't think I have slipped (thank goodness) I don't wish that on anyone with a band. I caught mine from one of my kids too... guess being a good mommy has it's "rewards"... LOL -
feeling down and unmotivated in months leading to surgery date
TatT3d_GirRL replied to Hephania's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It's amazing how one day I can get on here and I find someone who knows exactly how I feel. I am so ashamed of the way I let myself get that I feel that everyone in the world is looking down on me too! I feel like their looks are just saying "how did she let herself get so fat?" "She would be pretty if only she weren't fat!" It's such a self- esteem destroyer. I am 21 days post op and let me tell you, the confidence you feel when you finally start to lose the weight is amazing. I hope you all feel as great as I do once you have your surgery. It is a SLOW process but so worth it! I have lost 15 pounds since surgery... it is a small triumph but it is enough to keep me motivated. good luck to all of you! -
I'm very nervous! Today I go for my surgery. Today is the first day of the rest of my life!!!

yeah my lungs felt weird too, it's finally starting to subside. I had my first "stuck" episode last night! I feel back to normal so I had started to eat little nit of reg food but got a bit ahead of myself and ate rice not a good idea so soon after surgery! I was so stuffed that I had to try and make myself throw up! UGH I am still getting used to this band thing! Have u lost any weight?
