Hi all I hope everyone who has been done is healing well and the next lot coming up have a safe procedure I am writing because I am wondering I am 2 weeks post surgury and I am tired all the time is there anyone else out there that is feeling or have felt this way and have any of you found a way to fix it In the morning I have energy and feel like doing stuff but come 3-4pm I am in bed I take a multi vitiamin and am trying to make the liquids I drink count so any help would be gratful

Always have it to the point hubby has to open the window first thing in the morning so he dosent get toxic poisoning from my breath 8 days out Please help!!!!!

Lol Crispy every morning when I wake up my husband has to open the window to let in some fresh air as my mouth is rank......I am 8 days out on liquids and sometimes thick near mushie liquid but am having no problem whatsoever, still sore and tender and above the port incision felt like it was burning and very hot so last night put and ice pak on it and this morning not so bad will ice it again today. I have lost 5kgs since op and feeling it in my body especially my face my skin is so soft which is amazing as I was always very itchy before now only itchy near scars but thats healing I think good luck to all that have yet to be done this month and for all that have already been done especially my band twin roxy123 (by the way how are you going?) keep going on the fluids at this moment mushies soon yum and please keep posting :clap2:

This is amazing I started off at 146kg and am now 133kgs I lost 5kgs before surgery and in 1 week have lost another 5kgs WOW So As I said one week out and I am doing pretty good I am eating soup with bumps in it (I blendered up chicken and vegies and pasta would go up a straw just lumpy) I have had no problems with anything as yet and hope I dont

Congratulations I also became a bandster this week and am at day 5 feeling good went for a walk with hubby and feeling satisfied on the liquids just fighting head hunger all the time today. I didnt leave the hospital until day three but it seems abit different here in OZ than in th USA

Hi all I was suppose to be done 09/22 but surgeon cancelled because he was tired:faint: now have a new date 10/10 14 days today hopefully I will be done then

Yes that is right I am being banded tommorow and I am so ill with nerves :sick Thankyou to all that have supported me in the past couple of months I look forward to getting back on here after becoming a bandster:bandit Love Kellie

They postponed the surgery until the 10th october and I am pissed it is no fault of my own the surgeon had trouble with the man who went in before me He had a bleed and took over three hours to do so I am not a bandit I am very very depressed and I have sore eyes from crying so much I did tell the surgeon my thoughts though as I think it is hard for me to be emotionally sound if things like this happen :think

Well this week end was my little sisters wedding and It was lovely but I drank three days straight as it was weekend celebration but as I only have 6 days left I am on TF three meals a day till I go in I have cried all weekend and I am so stressed out and scared but excited to be doing this but today mostly scared..... Did anybody else feel like this leading up to thier op as at the moment anything sets me off into tears????? Love to everyone thankyou for all of your informative info on the lapband Kellie

Thankyou all so much for your kind words and support. In Australia we do not have these support groups you all talk about, what we have is the online support and the friendships we make off of these. I have not been second guessing my descion to have this op at all I am looking for a new life as a bandit and life with this tool that will at last help me to lose the weight :clap2: I just cant stop the tears Yesterday I said Goodbye to all my family some I hadnt seen for years and as I was doing it I started:think ....... I am scared of not waking up. But I know if I dont control my weight I wont wake up one day either:think . Bring on Friday and all that comes with it 5days to go and my new life as a :bandit

I am writing as I only have 10 days to go until I become a bandster and I am finding that my marriage is crumbling. My dh is finding fault in everything with me and the kids and is so grumpy it is becoming unbearable. I am thinking of leaving him now. He has told me he is scared but so am I what gives him the right to behave like this He is pushing me away :help: Please

Congrats I am also being done on 22nd September band twins I am in Australia Where are you? Good luck with the op

Hi everyone tahnkyou all so much for your input and support yes at times I feel guilty that I dont think more of how he is feeling Lisah but I have just been feeling that he makes it ablout him all the time he hasnt asked me once about how I am feeling I nearly walked out last night as I just cant handle the constant nit picking and anger but I will give him a couple of months after JJin LAif he continues to be a prick Thanks again all

Hi Randi It is all of the above and it is now beyond a joke I havent cheated on him he has on me I wouldnt leave just because I am skinny I will if you treat me and my kids wrong I will come out of this its called positive thinking :faint: I married him fat his isnt that fat I loved him through everything and now he does this I feel ripped of that he is making my experience all about him when in reality its not I am funding this surgery on my own as I have done all along all I asked of him is emotional support and he cant do that :think I am sorry I am just at my whits end with him
