Sept. 2010 Bandsters !!!
pooky032281 replied to Brian-LA's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
So today is my 18 month anniversary...I'm almost 70 lb down from my heaviest weight. Finally got off my plateau! Then comes the bad news...I saw a new surgeon last week (my other doc kept attributing my nausea/vomiting/reflux to seasonal allergies...so I went for a 2nd opinion). She took 1.5cc out of my band and sent me for an xray to check placement. It seems my band is tilted, she says this can indicate a slip or a dilated esophagus. So now that I finally got off my plateau, I may be looking at a complete unfill, and having to start this mess all over again. Just hoping that I don't end up having to have a 2nd surgery. So...lesson learned. If you are having problems of any kind...don't take "just take a clairitin or a zyrtec" as a solution. Such a bogus solution to a real problem!!! -
Pretty sure today was my hardest day in ten years of nursing....going home to count my blessings and hug my babies :'(

My heart goes out to all my Anadarko friends who are mourning the loss of Ashley Burrus today. Praying for God to give you all peace and strength to get through today and the coming days ahead...

Are there any night shifters out there who can relate to me with this problem? I do fine bringing my "lunch" to work every day, but then I have a horrible time staying awake between 2 and 5am...so I snack to stay awake! Bringing back bad habits that lead me to this surgery in the first place! I'm a nurse, so its only 3-4 nights per week, but then on my nights off at home, if I'm not in bed by say 10pm, my stomach starts growling and I feel like I'm absolutely starving to death! I have just over 5cc in my 14cc band, and that fill was done under fluoro back in August. I feel like I have good restriction, but I get hungry within 2-3 hours. Any suggestions on curbing the middle of the night cravings/snackings??? Or anything to help stay awake without eating?
