why are the "RULES" so different from Dr to Dr?
crsti41 commented on J_BandRanger's blog entry in Blog 92116
I have wondered the same thing. -
I wish you well on your journey that is just beginning. I am just shy of two weeks out of being banded mine was 6-1-10. I to have not told alot of people because i know it is a slow process this is not going to happen over night and i to ddidnt have a big bmi i was borderline by the ins company to approve. But after going through all that they wanted me to do and folowed what they wanted they approved me. i do not have alot of weight to loose but i to have dieted and gained it back i am so hoping that this will be the tool i need to keep my weight off. I think maybe telling your Mom if you are close and hopefully she will keep it between the two of you. i didnt want alot of people knowing i was doing this either so i totally understand were you are coming from. Good luck on your journey.

So my friend laughed at me when i said i cant wait for real food. I am still on a liquid diet right now my second week. She said i will never be on real food again. I will wont i? It will just be smaller amounts and wiser choices right? just not stuff that is ull of fat. I sure do hope i am right and not her.Thoughts anyone?:bored:

How important are the rules really?
crsti41 replied to SavvyCat's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
OMG my Dr said no soda or alcohol and it is in the book also that he gave me to read. All i can say is i am going to follow the Drs order to a tea and not do anything other than what he says i do not want my band to slip or have any complications. I worked at this to long to get my banding and i am not gonna mess it up now that i have it -
Is this infected? (warning, pic of incision)
crsti41 replied to weso631's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
looks like its healing nicely -
I am just two weeks banded . But i have been told it comes off very slow. Sounds like your Dr is a jerk. You just keep trying and as long as its coming off you are doing things right best of luck to you
-
Good luck dont over due follow what they tell you. I had my banding going on my second week now and i was a little sore but not to bad. Just take care of you an do what you feel like your boday can handle. Best of luck to you.
