    26 Day Pre-OP?!?!?!

    It helps to decrease the size of your liver so reduces of pentrating the liver during surgery. My surgeron required all paitient to a four week preop diet. If your bmi isover 50 you are on it for six weeks. I only lost ten pounds.

    Breastfeeding in public:

    I have no problem with breastfeeding in public especially if you use a. Shield or blanket.. I breastfed my child for eight months. I did do it in public but I didn't whip out my.boob. for all to see. Its called use respect for others.
  6. You will probably go about a week after surgery.the thing you have to realize is tha you put your whole body through this ordeal. Its about same time after having a baby. It will be a lot softer or lose due liquids so don't freak out. If you get too paranoid call your doctor and see what he or she might recommend.

    Personality change

    You are going to changed but its going to be okay.. You are going to be come a more confident person.. You aren't gonna want to hide out in the crowd.. you are going to want people to take noticed there isn't anything wrong with it.. i really think that those people who say things like that are the ones that are going to concern about losing you as a friend.. I really think that some people tend to have issues with the person that had surgery.. because they are confident and feel better about themselves.. If they are your true friend then they will be there.. you are going to have good and bad days.. I have had more bad days lately because I am soo freaking stressed out because of my maritial problems..

    Would I go through Surgery again and get Banded?

    First of all, I haven't had a soda since being banded in January 25, 2011. It causes your pouch to stretch along with overeating. There is always a chance that you have stretched your pouch. you might need to do a pouch test this will also get you back on track with everything. Also, if you continue to eat the same things you will not lose you eventually need to changes things up including diet and exercise. I personally, can not eat bread, pork, and other meats. You need to remember to drink your water. Do you attend a support group?? this has helped me during the journey..

    This is a difficult thing however the benefits out weigh the struggle. I had a horrible first ten days. But I am loving the new me. I feel better about myself. You will wonder if you made the right decision during the first day but when you start to see the weight coming off you will be like why.didn't I do.this.sooner. this is not.something you take softly. You give it your all and you will love the results.
  21. has been giving things that I have no clue what to do with.. or how to feel about. I am trying to stay focused on me and Kaitlynn but its hard when you have to deal with drama and lies on a daily basis. Stuck and I have no clue what I need to do.. This past week has been really stressed.. I am beyond knowing how to handle things..

    fyi

    You sound like you areready for a fill. Many.doctors wait until now or later. You still need to be cautious of what you eat. Your stomach isn't the same size.
  23. what in the world is going on with Chat.. I am having a really bad couple of days and I need to talk to my support group and friends.. please fix it..

  24. i have offically lost 40.2 pounds since my surgery in January. I have about 79-85 more pounds depending on what my Doctor think is my goal weight.. I am shooting for 159 which is 79 pounds from my current weight...

  25. praying for those individuals who lost one during the recent storms in Alabama.
