November 09 Knockouts! Check in here POST surgery! :)
soocalchic replied to PrincipalsOffice's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Sounds like you are doing well with the drinking I've been having a hard time drinking anything I just feel so blah i dont want to. Today I've drank about 20oz of Water and about 10 of my protein. I just am not up to it. I am 4 days post op so hopefully this will get better. I 'm not in a whole lot of pain just a little uncomfortable. -
cant seem to get them all down for some reason just not interested in drinking lol.. What are you eating? try eating leaner meats and vegies for a while get all your protein in and lots of water should get the scale moving

Im allergic to vicodin and percocet doesnt come in a liquid well i made do and crushed the percocet into a tiny bit of the tylenol so that i can take it because i was in a little bit of pain. and yes im on liquids for 3 weeks
-
well i had surgery this morning and I must tell you it wasnt that bad. I do have a terribly sore throat omg that hurt worst than anything else lol!!Crushing the percocet isnt going to work for me so i just sent the hubby to get me some liquid tylenol. The crushed medicine upset my stomach. I got to come home by 3pm so its been cool recouping here at home

How much is plastic surgery in Mexico
soocalchic replied to findingme's topic in Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery

might want to call your doctor hun..

thats odd its funny that you mention that not sure if you have any children but when kids are small since they have very little belly fat you can actually hear the liquid in their bellys sloshing around. Specially after they drink a bottle of milk. Could just be normal from your belly beeing empty and full of water.

1 year and half, is this normal??

yeah hun sounds like you are just too tight.. Night time coughs have to do with acid reflux and aspiration dont want to scare you but you can end up with pneumonia -
I got banded @ 9:30 this morning.
soocalchic replied to Ready4-a-new-me's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Congrats girlie i asked my doc for my prescption at my preop so that i can have my pain meds on hand on Monday when i get banded glad to hear that you are doing well. -
Omg i am so livid right now i got a call from Angelina the patient coordinator today at 3pm to tell me that my labs are incomplete. Ironically i need a pregnancy test that was not done. Coincidence im on my period and my hubby has had a vasectomy i know TMI. So I rushed on over to Labcorp to have that done and they are going to fax over the results today since theyre doing it stat.I still cant help to fell really upset about this. I even called them earlier this week to make sure everything was ok and didnt hear back from them. Hope they get these results on time.

Depends on what you are trying to achieve Low weight lots of reps will get you definition and high weight less reps will have you build muscle. -
Question about Damage from SOda?
soocalchic replied to itsalmosttime's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You know us fat folk, we're all passionate about something lolz!!!! -
thanks for the advise guys still going to ask the doc just to be on the safe side..

I'm not bended yet actually my date is this coming monday. So today while I was working out. I jump rope for cardio. My brain started thinking hey can this possibly make your band slip? So my question is anyone on here jump rope? I was wondering how safe it might be..
-
thank you guys for the warm wishes will keep you guys updated!!!
-
I am also having surgery on Monday got a call from the anestetist today and i must admit i am officially nervous lol!!! Congratulations on the loss I have also lost 70 lbs from my heighest weight..
-
you are 100% correct.. working out and building muscle will help but like you mentioned it does depend how much damage was there already...

Question about Damage from SOda?
soocalchic replied to itsalmosttime's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Geez hun give it up!! seriously get off your high horse.. You are so negative its not even funny. Your snarky remaks are unecessary. Clearly we all got or are getting a lapband because we have an off relationship with food. Why is it any of your buisness if someone wants to drink a soda? Seriously i doubt that success here is measured by the amount of weight you have lost. You know what they say about assumptions they make an a$$ out of you lolz!! -
you can also try bench pressing, changing up the position of the bench works out different parts of your pectorals. I like to lift with the bench on a decline works out the top part of my chest and you can certainly feel it.

Yes girl Im hispanic and i love hot sauce. I have a whole section in my fridge dedicated to this habbit lol.. From what i know we should be able to resume eating hot sauce just not right away. I plan on not having an overly tight band so shouldnt be a problem. My nutricionist said no rice, tortillas or bread for the first 6 months so thats going to be tough in itself.
-
Oh did i forget to mention that i dont have a preop diet.. I just have to do clears the day before surgery.. So you guessed it im eating like its going out of style. Yeah I'm putting myself in check. I cant continue beeing a gluton lol!!
-
I said i wouldnt do this to my self but i have been eating like a pig not sure whats thats all about but i guess its me beeing nervous. I'm no stranger to surgery so thats not the part that im nervous about i guess its more like what you mentioned life after the band. We also entertain on Thanks Giving and well were going to have about 30 people over and I'm helping the hubby cook and not eating is going to be tough.. Oh well I will get over it. I hope lol!!!

hey chica looks like we are beeing banded the same day good luck I'm a little nervous but excited..
