wow im glad you are doing well, my insurance requires a 23 hour hold so still outpatient which is cool. I have 70 lbs to loose. I guess once i get to goal i will reevalute I'm 5"8 so 175 should be ok. Besides I have 800cc implants that are probrably going to be to large so dont want to get too small lol!!
-
Not sure as far as I know its outpatient.. I hope I dont have to stay overnight. So how have you been doing with your new adjustment? Do they do your adjustments with a flouroscope?

Band a success but what is causing back pain?
soocalchic replied to kossde's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I have read on here that sometimes patients that have a significant weight loss end up having to have their tubing shortened because it rubs the phrenic nerve or the diaphram and irritates it. Do you have a lot of sagging skin that can also cause back aches. -
Hey girlie looks like you are doing great I'm beeing banded soon and i'm excited lol..

Hi Neener I am beeing banded 2 days before you and I'm a 30 year old mom of 3 amazing kiddos 2 boys 1 girl. I have a great hubby that was a little resistant at first but is supportive now. Looking forward to keeping in touch with you guys. -

soocalchic replied to 2Flyguys's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
OMG i feel like i wrote this post my best friend had GB about 4 years ago and she lost about 200lbs and now that I'm beeing banded I only have 70 lbs to loose and she has become a hater. She was one of the first people i told i had been approved. So she took it upon herself to send out a mass text message out, to all our friends and family that read " Emily is being banded she is going to give me a run for my money" I was like WTF was that all about. Everyone was like whats her problem? she didnt seem to think that she was beeing a hater lol.. But this is life I guess I will have to deal with it and drop these pounds. -

Wearing a Body Shaper
soocalchic replied to Shar Pei's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have one of these they are the best, a little pricey but they really hold you in, they make you look super smooth and are great for your posture. Not sure if I'm going to be able to wear it right after surgery since mine is really snug lol LIPOEXPRESS -

soocalchic replied to neesh's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
There are a whole lot of people on this board who have cheated on their post op diet. Now that said it doesnt make it ok. You knew what you were signing up for so be strong and keep the liquids coming. -
