Ill be 6 weeks out on Wednesday -

And now it's time for a TMi moment...... I wonder if anyone outside of Bariatric land knows what NSV stands for? Probably not. That's a "non-scale victory" for those of you not in the know So it dawned on me yesterday that a serious issue I was being plagued with in middle-age has disappeared! Prior to surgery, I constantly felt like I had to pee! Sometimes I would rush to the bathroom only to have a small amount come out. It felt like something was sitting on top of my bladder. I would pee and 2 minutes later I felt like I had to pee again! It was a frustrating cycle and my doctor and I concluded I had organ prolapse resulting from age and my muscles weakening from childbirth. Post surgery, the problem is GONE. The only thing I can conclude is my stomach was sitting on top of my bladder. With most of it gone, it's allowed things to shift around inside of me and now everyone seems to have their own "personal space" within and are happy! I am thrilled! Just in time for a long weekend car ride to Yosemite! Don't worry girls, I won't be hiking any major trails this trip. I plan on finding a nice place to plop myself down and reading a book while the rest of my adventurous family hikes. Can I get a shout out for bladder control?!?! Awesome!!! -

What do you wish you'd known before lap band surgery?
gowalking replied to Sarah A's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I needed my port moved as well. No tummy tuck but it stuck out like a golf ball. Even got caught on my belt sometimes and warning...might be TMI, but certain positions in the bedroom caused a problem as well. Not anymore though now that it's tucked behind the muscle.. -

Everything replied to TheMarine79's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Hi November! Welcome to the convo! Goody - Thanks for the advice. I should’ve checked this earlier to see if you responded because he got the braces this morning! But at least it’s done. We’ll just figure out the details as we go. They were only paying for $1500 of it anyway. He had to have some oral surgery in the hospital etc. etc. etc. so really in the long run $1500 isn’t the worst. Sheri you are looking lovely as always. My mom would have loved your shirt. She was a huge OU fan. My husband a huge Texas fan so that was always a fun conversation. My mom was from Okmulgee Oklahoma. Ever heard of it? Congrats Pattianne! 2B - you’ll have to define “bad days” for me. I still puke now and then and sometimes I even still spit out that last bite of food. I get a little ahead of myself rushing. OK last thing and this is super personal but has to do with weight loss surgery so I’m sharing. For the last four weeks I have been battling symptoms of a urinary tract infection. I have been on antibiotics and they have sent my samples to the lab twice. I get the new results later today. The last time I gave a sample they said I was extremely dehydrated. So I have been chugging water which seems to have really helped all the problems I was having. Just something to think about because we focus so much on food. I was literally only using the bathroom twice a day. Once in the morning and once in the afternoon. So I am actively forcing fluids now. Hopefully that will resolve the issue once and for all... (Hope you enjoyed that bit of TMI!) My hair loss has finally stopped! It was weird it’s sort of just all fell out at once and then stopped immediately. So I got my hair highlighted and I feel pretty now. I have been trying to increase my calories and stop the weight loss. I gained a pound in the last couple of days and that’s exciting. Between the dehydration and the (almost) scary weight loss- it was a little concerning. I’m starting to feel better now though. Nice checking in on everyone! Hope everyone is well. -
Ughhh...Attempted going back to work this morning. Was feeling good n ready. That is until I started commuting. Went up a flight of stairs to catch the train n I had instant dizziness. And no, I don't believe it was due to my surgery. It was due to the dreaded 'woman monthly visit'. Ughhh....How horrific! It got progressively worse. As I got nearer, I got dizzier n dizzier. Then the nausea kicked in. Haven't even had nausea with the surgery! Finally had to call my supervisor as I was 10 minutes away n tell her I couldn't go in YET AGAIN. I could hardly get the words out I was having coldsweats and feeling completely faint. I tried to avoid scheduling my surgery around this time but I also wanted it ASAP so I couldn't put it off. Sorry if this is TMI, guys!

Okay. This isnt for me. I guess I'm hoping the men speak up here too. My husband and I have both been overweight most of our time together. I've always had the sex drive. Unfortunately my hubby's has been getting fewer and farther in-between. Here I'm 3 months out, down 60 pounds and we've been together ONCE since surgery!!!! Once!! About 2 months ago. My hubby's weight is about 290. How much would that weight affect his libido?

I have been dizzy too. I'm not sure why. I've gotten between 85-90 grams of protein in everyday since Thursday. It's odd though, when I go more than about 3-4 hours between protein, I get nauseous and weak feeling. My blood sugars are still not coming down yet, that's frustrating! I guess I expected to be feeling much better than I am by now; I still have very little energy! Ugh! Oh and TMI, I know, but I have this horrid smell coming from me! I'm wondering if I'm in ketosis, but I can't seem to bathe enough or brush my teeth enough and it doesn't want to go away... yuck! Sorry, but I can't handle odors well, specially when they're coming from me and I know I'm a clean person!

Newbie looking for Oct sleevers!
KarenF1972 replied to Marielbx's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Hey everyone, it's a "does anyone else have this" post: I've noticed just over the last hour or so that I am getting a moderate pain in my left abdomen, about midway between my belly button and my side. (This side has been more sore because that's where they pulled my stomach out.) I get just a little jolt of pain and then it goes away. Of course (TMI) I haven't had a bowel movement of any kind in the last couple days so I'm thinking it may be that??? Thanks! -

I think the biggest issue is me being so picky. I tried tuna, but I really don't like tuna and threw it out. I've never been a fan of seafood with the exception of crab legs and shrimp and I'm not sure if those are allowed yet because of the texture. I only recently started eating salmon, and it's ok in small amounts but after 4 days straight, my taste buds were done with salmon. I started out trying to use protein shakes against his wishes (I'm a bit of a rebel lol), but they don't sit well with me and made me feel like throwing up, so I stopped using them. They seemed to be too foamy or something. I'd let them settle for a few minutes before drinking them but that didn't help either. I'll try picking up some string cheese. I was eating sliced cheese and cheese curds (I swear that it reformed into a giant cheese curd in my intestines and I felt it working it's way all the way thru... TMI). Maybe string cheese will go down smoother. I'm making my kids some chicken legs tonight for dinner and will pull the meat off of some for myself. It won't be pureed, but I'll chew chew chew amd then chew chew chew some more lol. I guess I kinda looked at my meal options like this... I can have some malt-o-meal and get maybe 2g of protein or a yogurt and get 12g = yogurt won. Same with cottage cheese for 7g or a yogurt for 12g. I'm going to buy more eggs today and whip up a batch of deviled eggs. I'll make enough for the kids and then save some on my "Mom's only" shelf in the fridge (my kids would clean me out if I didn't have one lol). I'll attach my meal plans and options they gave me. -
Shrinking Violets -- April 07 Bandsters
SC-Cindy replied to TracyinKS's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Hi all, Happy Monday morning! And I really need to get to bed since I start back teaching tomorrow--luckily, my first class isn't 'til 11am and the last is over @ 3:50. Such a GREAT change from teaching in high school. Sounds like almost everyone is back on track with our plans for the new us that we started with our lapbands. Come on, pounds, start a-droppin'. The trip in May sounds wonderful! And I agree with the others, Jane--GO! I wish I could be with y'all, but already have plans to go on a trip that I am organizing to Israel and Jordan. Of course, I'm excited about going to the Holy Land, but dearly want to meet each of you as we celebrate our new bodies. Tracy, good luck with the job hunt with BP. And Pamela, thanks for today's tip: It's a great one as I can never get enough fiber and we know the problems THAT creates. TMI, right? Kat, two or three bites of ice cream??? Judy, a small # of mints??? No sweat!!! Pounds, commence to droppin' ! love to all, Cindy -

Good morning everyone!! I am still stuck at 228...that bites. But, I would rather stand still than to gain. I am still "full of it"...tmi for you all I am sure, sorry. But I know I am going to drop the pounds once I get some fiber sure in my system Laura-what a beautiful dress and shoes!! You must be SO excited! TracyKS-you crack me up!! I have the batwing thing going too. I have a phobia of short sleeves. Pam-The 5 lbs is probably water weight, so don't sweat it....well, actually, do sweat it...lol then, no more problem!! Take care & have a great day everyone!!! TGIF!!!!!!! -

Ok guys, there were like 8 pages of replies since I was last on my computer....no offence, i don't have time to go through all those posts one by one :-( sowwwwwwie! But I wanted to say that being 4 days out......MUCH IMPROVEMENT! WALK WALK WALK WALK WALK WALK WALK WALK WALK WALK. I cannot stress that enough! Yesterday and today I did a good bit of walking and I'm POSITIVE that's why I'm doing so much better today. Still sore obviously, but doing 100000 times better. I haven't taken pain meds since yesterday morning (they were making me sick, which lead to vomit - sorry if TMI - and we all know that's a bad thing). So i've toughed it out and i'm doing much better. I'll try to keep up on the posts from now on, but i'm not positive i will (LOL), so if you want to make sure I see/read something, please PM it to me...otherwise I might not see it, and I don't want anyone to think i'm ignoring them! Anyway, so far so good, again, today has been much better. Just wanted to check in and let everyone know that there is a light at the end of the tunnel and that you're all in my thoughts - those just banded, and those still to be banded. We can do this!! :clap2: -Panda- -

Spring into March 2010 Bandsters
gingerjane replied to NYSparklegirl's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Hi everyone! I'm home. Had my surgery this morning with Dr. Trace Curry. I had a hernia that they had to repair, so I got a little more stomach gas they said. I have to say, that is the worst part of the whole thing so far. My port incision is a bit sore but not unbearable. I hate to be TMI, but I have never prayed so hard to fart in my entire life! :tt1: I have a heating pad and a thermacare on my shoulder trying to break it up and keep getting up and walking around. The walking isn't bad, either. Just that darn gas! -
I'm loving the baby comparison thing and yea, it makes sense. I knew about the swelling... I just wasn't prepared for it to be like this! You all know I'm, peri menopausal and before surgery it was many many months since I last had a 'show' and it was literally just that! Well in the last 3 mths since the TT I have had one 'show' and one proper period (duration and content - sorry if TMI) and today, I feel as if I am on run up - which coincides with the mood at the beginning of the week! And I've had the carb monster cravings which I gave into today in work - school chips! They looked lovely but tasted like **** and it is fair to say that I picked at them and didn't enjoy them one bit - boooo! I suppose it was like imagining having sex with my idol and then if it ever happens he was crap! What a let down. I won't be eating chips in school again ( or shagging my idol in the near future!)

Thanks. I can see a difference now! Feeling good and DH is getting downright frisky! TMI.... sorry!

I do like the blue team, just for a little eye candy. Both of them... and I've always had a thing for the black curly hair and thick tan masculine body... LOL Okay, TMI. I hope they can hang on for awhile because I like "watching" them. *Off topic (well kinda)* I am rooting for the Steelers because I just have the hots for Troy Polamalu... Green team, hmmm... she plays the game really well. What can I say? She packed water for two weeks and it paid off really well this week. She's a real playa! Silver team. I guess I'm in the minority when I say I'm really rooting for them. Joelle needs major help, and the longer she stays on the ranch and gets beat down by Bob the better off she'll be. I think with her friend back she will do even better now. She was really lonely I think. Orange team: Hello! David made those remarks and I knew the outcome right then. Sad but you know what? I think Dan will really show his stuff on the Finale. Go Dan!! Wow, he's really doing great on his own and he's even turning into kind of a cutie! See y'all next week!

Good evening, Violets.. What a bummer the last 24 hours has been. We went out to dinner after choir and Bob and I shared nachos. We got home and my head was pounding and I felt sick from it. Went to bed at 9:30 and by 11 I was in the bathroom trying to vomit. I haven't done that since getting the band and had forgotten how vile it is.. yuck. After getting rid of everything from both ends... sorry tmi... I went to bed and stayed there until 7 p.m. tonight. I haven't had a thing to eat in 24 hours, and just a little juice. I'm not hungry and have a little fever. Grady was sick Tuesday so I guess that's where I got it. Ethan is sick too. Not fun!!! Grady is coming over tomorrow morning for the day and then Bob and I have a wedding in the afternoon. Then we'll go back to Grady's house and stay there until Saturday afternoon. The other grandparents will take over until Sunday afternoon and then I'll be there with Grady and Ethan until Tuesday afternoon. Kris and Nathan are loving Hawaii. They are going whale watching right now. Can't wait to see all their pictures and videos. Off to try and do some laundry.... and have some hot chocolate. Everyone sleep well. I certainly hope I can after sleeping 24 hours straight..

Secret eater checking in Trying to get my stuffing face non-stop under control. TMI ALERT- getting ready to start my monthly friend, so its always a struggle around this time. I seem to do fine until my babies are in bed and I'm able to relax. Last night was day 3 of eating...and eating...and eating until I was so uncomfortably full. UGH! WHY DO I DO THIS! I know there is no one to blame but myself and I know there is someone thinking "Stop complaining about it and just stop girl!" So much easier said than done. But I will try again today to do better, thats all I can do, right? Have you tried adding a little milk to the scrambled eggs before you cook them? It makes them much more soft. I havent had problems eating certain foods, and have felt the lumo in my chest feeling maybe twice, but goes away fairly quickly. Is that the 'stuck' feeling?

I have had diarrhea starting the day after surgery. My first bout was when I was asleep in my hospital bed (TMI) and then later that day it happened again. GROSS!!!

no rest for the wicked MO!!! MWAHAHAHAHA joking. i think a week between might be good, as long as your points are high enough to take that break. >:eek: Man....this fake sweetener is making me sooooo gassy. DH actually left the room to go outside today. Its not like I smell. I am just a little loud at the moment. LOL Ok TMI. I'll leave now. hehehehe
