Anyone have a flatter stomach after removing the band?
soocalchic replied to reshiapooh96's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums

Painful lap site?
soocalchic replied to Ladylaurarose's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Is it the biggest one? If it is that's the one that had more trauma they remove the stomach out of the biggest incision and normally it gets stretched a lot hence why it might be more painful give it a couple more days. If its not red or hot to the touch you'll be ok. Always contact your doc if it doesn't feel right.. -
My breath is so nasty I can't stand it no matter how much I brush or listerine it doesn't make it better

First day was a breeze second and third day was tough stay medicated and you'll be just fine. Who's our doc?

You do understand that you are making your food drier that way. Chia seeds work well to hydrate you hence the soaking try using apple juice I like them in my lemonade..

My face is broken out too its from the Protein try whey isolate see if it makes a difference
-
Bloom your chia seeds in water and then add them to your food.. That's a whole lot of chia seeds keep in mind they have lots of calories.. Add about a Tbs of chia to 2 cups of water keep them in the fridge once they're all jellied up add them to your food..

Got My Date 11/05/12 Going From Band To Sleeve..
soocalchic posted a topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
So almost 3 years to the date of having my lapband I'm exited but nervous I'm new on this forum I used to post regularly on lapbandtalk so you will be hearing from me on here. I had loads of issues with my band and port. Initially I lost 50 lbs gained it all back so now I'm starting all over again.. Looking forward to not having a port.. -
Got My Date 11/05/12 Going From Band To Sleeve..
soocalchic replied to soocalchic's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I didn't have a dialated esophagus but normally the dialation gets better while you're on a liquid diet..so it takes a couple of weeks to shrink down..
