SummerAgain replied to sweetbrandie's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I just went for my preop appt on Friday and I, too, gained. She didn't say a word about it. -
I am wayyy east.

Surgery on Monday, August 17th and I took the whole week.

I may be interested...I already have to drive so far away to my surgeons office and his groups are too big and only an hour long! I know of 2 other lap banders from where I live that may be willing as well! What area were u thinking about?

Anyone else NOT have to be on preop diet?
SummerAgain replied to kimber1701's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
No pre-op diet here either...but a fairly strict post op diet. -
Not only do I have to do the magnesium citrate at noon the day before surgery...I get to do a fleets enema in the morning!! I'm gonna squeek when I walk!!

Tales of Bowel Prep
SummerAgain replied to SummerAgain's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I remember when I had a colonoscopy some years ago...I had to do liquids the day before and then bowel prep that evening.....well I had a bunch of lemon italian ices during the day....LOTS of very ACIDIC lemon italian ices. Baby butt cream should have been my best friend! -
I haven't been banded yet so I dont have anything to offer other than to say good luck! I will look for your update as soon as you hear anything! BTW, smart move in NOT flying! Definitely for the best!

Buying clothes is a full time job!!
SummerAgain replied to August's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Buy from consignment....then turn around and sell it on ebay! You could probably break even! -
Thank you cindy!!
-
Your shakes sound amazing....can you think of one using a little canned pumpkin and nutmeg.....like a pumpkin pie?!
-
Cindy..... can you come live with me?!! ; )
-
That sounds amazing! I have to remember that we can use some "add ins" as long as we count the nutritional info and blend well! I keep getting stuck on the idea that it has to be powder and milk only......even had to convince myself that it was okay to use skim milk instead of water!

My surgeon does not require one. Although, I am trying to cut back on my own. I've cut out all soda, caffeine, and carbonation. I am drinking different shakes for Breakfast in an attempt to acquire a taste for one! I am taking Vitamins everyday. I am also continuing on with the therapist who did my pysch, trying to give myself the best possible chance at success. So, what are your pre-op requirements?

Luck, luck, luck!!!

Good luck!!

I soooo agree with seeing a therapist. I see one weekly and although I like her very much and it is always helpful to talk to somebody...she is NOT a WLS therapist and I am thinking I need to find one. She definitely encourages me to make the changes required to being banded, and making those changes habit but there lacks a certain weight to her words because she is not an "expert" in the field.
-
We get take out probably once a week. Usually Friday nights. What are some good options at the pizza joint, or chinese? If my band will not tolerate anything from either place I'll figure something out...the trade off will be worth it....but just curious what the experienced banders do?
