    prayer requests for LBT'ers

    Mysher...I'm praying please let me know what the doctors discover as I'll be worrying for you. I'd like to ask for prayers for my father Joel who passed away and was buried last Thursday. I'm in extreme agony over his loss and need all the prayers I can get...I have to feel selfish, but I'm sooo low!

    November Bandsters!

    I'm back gang. I buried my father Thursday and have been struggling with several emotional distress since learning of his passing two weeks ago. As far as eating...I'm wide open and can eat what I did in the past. I try not to because I don't wanna put back on the 27 I lost in pre and post ... Luckily for me my surgeon does fills three weeks out. I was scheduled last week and had to move it back for the funeral so Iw ill go on Thursday to get my first fill. I have VG 11cc so wondering how much first fill will be. My biggest problem is to date I haven't given up drinking with meals. I realize on Thursday I must start this or defeat the purpose of the band. It's a mental thing for me and right now I'm losing. Hoping that once the pain of my loss lessens things will get back on track for me.. In the meantime...Vegge congrats on ur engagement girl. Karen thanks for you continued thoughts and prayers and be well all
  8. Check with your doctor...I was having horrible hunger pains four days post op through six and I got put on mashed potatoes that ended that problem...it's worth asking.
  9. I had sinusitis prior to the surgery and took antibiotics up until the day before as instructed by my surgeon...they also do iv antibiotics there so be prepared for the old YI
  10. I had six days of mushies then moved to soft diet...I've done fine.

    Pre-operation questions

    I had to do MediFast for two weeks prior to surgery the first three days were brutal...after that it was pretty easy sailing. From what I understand, and I'm no doctor, it's not just about shrinking the liver it's about how much room ends up around there because of it's size meaning less air has to be put in...for instance, I did the diet and had literally no gas pain except for the first night. MORE IMPORTANTLY, in those two weeks and the week after surgery I lost 27 lbs and it gave me a huge morale boost...so do the diet and you'll get a fantastic mental jump start.

    Cold Feet... Getting banded 12/14/06

    From One Cold Feeter to another... I almost backed out, but I'm SOOO glad I didn't. I was up and about that day and had about four days of bed time and NO gas pain after the first day. I too was weakened mentally and physically by the pre op diet so it made me shaky on the decision, but I'm down 27 lbs in three weeks and thrilled with the decision...good luck!
  15. Welcome and good luck with ur surgery Friday
