Come on help me out guys i dont want to have to call my doc and bug him with another question

Omg my doc said i cant sleep on my side or back for a week. i cant stand it i am getting pulled mucles and backaches and headaches. what about you guys? what did your docs tell you and what are your solutions?:thumbup: i had my surgery on sept 13th.

omg i had this nightmare. this is my nightmare.i was laying in bed and turned to my side and heard a popping noise. next thing i saw was part of the band sticking out the hole that hasn't healed. i started screaming for my husband to come and see what happened. then i asked if we should go to the emergency room. then in real life my husband called on my cell and it woke me out of that dream omg it seemed so real. have any of your guys had scarey nightmares like this.:thumbup:

i meant if you can loses inches without showing on the scale you lose lbs.

I am a obsessed scale person two and when the scale shows me higher i kick it. i want to buy a new one. i weigh myself 3 times or more a day.

Do not make yourself vomit that is bad

yeah dont take any medications without consulting your doc first so wait on the gas-x

i got the band last monday i didnt have the water problem but i did and still have gas issuse. for the gas issuse just make sure you are up and walking. it helps alot

i was banded on the 13th i had the opposite and used activa to help me.

i am not a person that deals with surgery pain. i have about 10 tattoos and i am fine with that pain. in the stomach area is just horrid for me. i am glad now i am better but i cant sleep on my side or tummy. i get headaches every night. thank god the lortab knocks me out.

OK SO I CAN SEE MINE WILL TOP EVERYONES SO FAR.. here it goes... I was getting ready to be wheeled into the surgery room but they wanted me to go to the bathroom first. well, i did no problem. when i stood up i thought i had to fart well boy was i wrong lol i pooed down on the floor. i hurryed and cleaned it up not know that i left some on my socks. when i woke up my husband told me i had poop on my socks. so through the whole surgery there i was lying there with poop on my socks and later to find out the back of my leg ewwww. i will never forget that. its ok i can laugh about it and you can too ha ha ha:biggrin::thumbup::thumbup::tt1: i forgot to add that i was eating activa everyday to make sure i pooped ok. a word of advice becareful when you eat that. non stop pooing lol

my husband was going nuts. he has adhd and omg those poor nurses. on tuesday when i was suppose to be discharged i had my xray at 9 am everything was good but the dr was in surgery until 4pm omg my husband was telling the nurses to get him here we want to go home. what if we walk out. i was embrassed that he was flipping out so much. he is also a soldier so he gets like that.i am sure they were glad when we left lol.

can you take a water pill?

i was afraid that the pressure of sleeping on my side might pop the glue stiches

someone that is a good friend and good supporter. i am a military wife so i dont like drama. i stay far away from drama and backstabbing. send me a mail lets talk. i have no friends here in killeen. i have lived her 4 years and dealt with backstabbers. i decided i didn't need friends but i do cause my husband will be going on his 4th deployment. :smile:.trust is a big thing to me.

I have been on the pre-up diet for 5 days and lost 6 lbs. the problems is i am so hungry. i am following what the menu says but man this is so hard. i am also weak.

whats it feel like to get bread stuck or any other food? i am not at normal food stage yet but i love like sandwhiches but i am afraid of getting the bread stuck.:thumbup:

can she toast the bun? maybe it would go down better?

i had my surgery on monday the 13th. i barely can finish a shake. so i have about 2 shakes a day and some applesace. i stay full for a while. i have lost 2 lbs every day.

do you still trust him to do the surgery? i would be a little worried. good on it i hope they can get things fixed for you. i hate surgery so i feel for you to have to go through it again is terrible,.:thumbup:

i can't eat all what they want me to for protien i have been out of the hospital one full day and i barely can eat. food doesnt even sound good (which is good) im a food lover. she wants me to drink 4 shakes theres no way i barely can finish one at a siting.

whats it feel like when the bread wont go down do you know?

i am too using the atkins ones love the moca one. very tasty.

CONGRATZ I LOST 20 LBS IN 2 1/2 WEEKS KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK:thumbup:

had my surgery on monday and didnt get to come home until tuesday at 4 pm man that sucked. the gas is bad but if you walk around it help alot. my incisions hurt he also had to fix a herital hernia i am just glad this whole thing is over. no is time for the new change. i think another thing that sucks is sleeping on your back man my lower back is killing me. dr said i have to wait a week before i can sleep on my side., but the plus side of all this in 2 1/2 weeks i lost 20 lbs wooohoo that is so awesome:thumbup::wub:
