December Bandsters (Early Xmas present)
size10again replied to chocolatecity's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hello, Vicky~ Have you been drinking warm water as your first drink of the day? My instructions say to start each morning with warm water t reduce mucous and to do this forever more. My instructions also say to take pepto for diarrhea. Have you taken anything for the diarrhea? Now my turn to share TMI! I have been without a BM since surgery until this AM. I took milk of magnesia the last two nights. When do you return to work? Joan -
TMI, Best Post-Op Sex Positions?
bandiebum replied to bandiebum's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
tmi, i bet cum tastes better now that we all arent eating fried shit foods -
Just remember that the band is different for everyone as are sex positions. You should try different positions and find what is right for you! Of course, we really would like a video to see what does work for you - it is okay to share TMI with everyone on LBT!

So I have this little problem... we'll actually, its a HUGE problem!!! *TMI* alert: Since the surgery my sex drive has disappeared!!! (had surgery Sept. '10) Its not that I don't love my husband or don't want to be with him... I just simply don't have the desire for that. So now for the past few weeks I have been accused of cheating...*sigh* My husband has this idea in his head that anytime I step out of this house its to be unfaithful to him!!! As funny as this sounds... its really breaking my heart. Its been a constant battle (almost every night) with him. I'm sick of fighting about this but he really is convinced that Im cheating and the only to calm him down is to freaking show him proof of where I've been or what I've been doing . And I know I shouldn't feed into that but its the only way I can shut him up! I don't know what to do anymore... Im really TIRED of this Bull$#!* WHAT DO I DO !?!?!? I can't take it anymore... #this is one of very few times I regret getting the surgery- Other than that.... I FREAKING LOVE MY BAND...down 65lbs and feeling great in my XL clothes

Can your Liver really shrink in just 3 days. It just sounds so crazy to me. If you done 3 days how was weight loss? Its interesting that different doctors require so many different things. Also i noticed this diet makes me poop alot **tmi** sorry. Is anyone having that issue?? Sent from my LGMP260 using BariatricPal mobile app

I know I complained about this before. And this may be a little tmi, but I'm pmsing again. I'm tired and want to eat everything I see. Not to mention I have to go see my personal trainer. Oh well I just need to vent.

Glad to see everyone doing so well. My poo problem is opposite of yours! TMI I know.

Probably TMI here, but be careful where and when you eat these (at least at first!) I brought them to work (before WLS) and they made me VERY gassy! Like, I had to go home or embarrass myself gassy! Just be careful...that's all I'm saying! -
Arrgghh, what does everyone do to deal with constipation? I am miserable!! I know, a little TMI, sorry!!

Well I'm now 3 weeks out today. Feeling a little discouraged. Since I started on mushy food last week I have gained 5 lbs back. Somebody from the Woodbridge office just called to confirm my appointment this week, and told me not to worry about it. Said it was probably water retention. How do you not worry when it's right there on the scale and not going anywhere. Yesterday was the most I have eaten at 800 calories. I also haven't gone to the bathroom in a week. TMI. Maybe that has some to do with it too. -
You know you have good restriction when...
bandpal replied to steph_co's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Thanks, guys! I tried taking the liquid in small sips and I'm not as queasy. Yay! It's amazing how hard it is for me to think small. No matter what you're eating or drinking, you can always cut it in half. I got an unfill today... Hope that works out for you, Cindy. I know you've been uncomfortable. I think it will be easier to loose weight without adding all the extra calories to my meals. I enjoy a little olive oil mixed in with my meals - good Mediterranean flavor, less calories than gravy or mayonnaise, tasty and a little grease on the wheels for the other end of the train track (TMI). I think I'm at the sweet spot with 7.25 cc's. Hope so. Me too! Go get 'em! -
Hi Everyone, I am so glad the surgery is over. I was home within 24 hours. I am still in pain but trying not to get addicted to the pain meds. Everything i eat is staying down, no gas pains and no trouble with my bowels (TMI)...lol I get up and walk around the house its really cold here. To everyone who sent me a message , I appreciate it alot. Take Care, I know it will get better.

Prayers to everyone!!! I have to use magnesium citrate...Like and epson salt preperation...on Tuesday and I hear I'll be on the pot for 6 hours! I am NOT looking forward to that but I'll pretend that I am loosing a bunch of FAT!!!! I am prepared with soft and moist wipes too! Sorry TMI I think tonight will be my last "Food" I am choosing this...then I will just have protein shakes Monday and Tuesday morning and then it is clear liquids from then on...they said I could have an egg and slice of toast Tuesday but....I usually just do a protein shake every morning so why change that????? I am also allergic to egg yolks...yea I could have egg substitute but I'm sure I'll be having plenty of that soon enough! I am also to put a motion sickness patch behind my ear at 10:00pm on Tuesday to help with the naseau! Anyone ever try that? Good luck and love to all Late Bloomers this week!

You know you are a bandster when....
DivaStyleCoach replied to Tyler883's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
***TMI Alert*** Last night I went to hear a wonderful speaker, of course there was food at the end. I got over-enthusiastic about a couple of bacon-wrapped scallops (I would have eaten a dozen or more pre-band) and ate them too fast. Well you know what that means... I had to leave early (had a hour drive home) and spent the entire hour on the freeway sliming and PB'ing...at 65 mph! :thumbup::ohmy::ohmy: -
I only had that problem one time after taking some miralax (sp?). I hadn't taken care of my business in a few to many days, so I mixed the recommended dose in some Water per my doc. I spent the next 24 hrs with a gurgling gut but no progress... The next morning I got off the couch and did the manly celebration of a good fart aka lift leg high and aim it... oops it wasn't just a fart... Did I mention we don't wear clothes in our house? Thank god for hardwood floors... TMI? Sent from my mobile productivity killer.

I just learned what you meant by "mini sparks" along your ribs. HahaEvery time I take a sip the liquid goes down and the tiny "sparks" or millions of tiny air bubbles stream upward. It's almost like I'm drinking something overly carbonated and it's tickling my stomach. Although the sharp stabbing sensation I get in my chest shortly after absolutely sucks. I can only burp to get rid of air while walking. I know this is TMI but I am unable to expel the air from the other direction and really wish I could cuz it seems as if that's where it's all at. The RN at the hospital said not to worry and it will pass in time but I haven't had any luck yet. Am I the only one that feels as if my intestines are on strike?

Oh and might I add that I have been having a small TMI moment in these quests to better my running. Sometimes during the run I feel the need to take a dump (sorry for the guttural description). I wish this did not happen and hope some others have a solution. I do try and take care of daily BM hours before running. However, nature calls again during the run. Maybe it is the pre workout drink? Don't know.

Fluids and Fiber - TMI story but important
Bornagainbabe replied to DownInSocal's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I can identify with that but not as bad as you fortunately. I have even had my fingers up there (TMI I know but it's true and definitely not recommended) to get it out and bled a bit afterwards. I take Benefiber now which I think is the same sort of thing as you are taking and it really helps keep me regular and strain-free (I can't afford to strain as have had hernia and ab surgery as well)! Hope you are feeling much better now. Bet it felt like you were passing a rubgy ball didn't it?! Helenxxx -
IBS Attack 8 months post sleeve
Mommysonadiet posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I think I had my first IBS attack last night at 9PM after I drank a kids cup Lil Angel from smoothie King and had 1/2 scoop of greek frozen yogurt. I have had these items before and was fine... I thought my appendix was going to burst or my intestines were inflamed from having diarrhea for the last few days (TMI sorry)...I haven't felt pain like this since the week after my surgery! Thankfully 1 hour ago, almost 20 hours after the pain started, I am feeling well enough to get out of bed. Has this happened to anyone else? -
Is/Has anyone had problems with constipation? I'm three weeks out, drinking plenty of fluids, but it's not helping. I'm still eating very little (about 500 calories a day) so I'm not expecting normal poops, but I wasn't expecting to have such trouble going either! Suggestions? I know I can have Beans in the diet phase I'm in. Maybe I just need to have some every day. Ick. Meg

I don't know what it was about day 3 but I was struggling so bad I couldn't sleep , cranky (tmi)...constipated from all the Protein Shakes. I was a wreck!!! Just know y'all are not alone and we can do this!! Today I'm on day 4 and things are looking a lot brighter. Sent from my SM-J700T using BariatricPal mobile app

I had my Sleeve done four years ago. I still get sick if I eat too fast or something not good for me. I don't usually throw up any food mostly the slime or more like releasing a large burp but it is not a burp, my stomach clinches like I am Throwing up. (I know TMI) I know the obvious answer would be to just eat slower and better selections. I guess I am wondering if this is normal so far out of surgery. This does not happen all the time, sometimes I go a month or so without getting sick and then like now it is an everyday occurrence. I had a scope a few months ago to see if there was a blockage that is causing this but they said it was all clear. Please any advise would help, or is this just normal? I have lost 130 lbs from my surgery weight. Thanks David

Ohhh my surgery was 4 hours. Started at 1 on Tuesday and was not done until 6 with the hour of recovery. It has not been easy guys. Anesthesia was hard on me. It took me a long time to come out of. Even still I didn't get any sleep Tuesday night. Anesthesia had me very itchy and gave me weird dreams. The beds are so tough to sleep in too. I have had broth and water but cannot tell when I'm full. I wonder if my pain is hunger or internal incision pain. I was not able to walk until Wednesday morning which was tough!!!! I feel very lightheaded. I also have a lot of gas and diarrhea. Yikes. Tmi, sorry.

I started my day with a dr appt at 9:30 am this morning. Still feeling a little weak and not ready to drive so my husband drove me. Plus I took pain meds last night. I guess I tried to turn over while sleeping and woke up with some nasty pain. :smile: Turning over in my bed is difficult! Well I got on the scale at the dr office and was down to 264!:tongue2: I started at 277 and was 271 at my last nutrition class which was on the 19th. When they weighed me at the hospital Monday prior to surgery I was 278 :thumbup: I told them their scale really sucked! Boy did it feel good to see the scale today!!! And what was even better I can move on to pureed foods this week!! I can have puree soups, protein shakes,applesauce, OATMEAL, and cream of wheat! I used my magic bullet to puree Progresso chicken vegetable soup. Looking forward to that! I still have gas issues but hopefully they will go away soon! Waiting for my bowels to return to normal (sorry TMI). First day with no Tylenol! The other issue I have is taking a deep breath I feel pressure..is this normal? Any good puree recipes/ideas? Thanks for the support!
