    Post-op 10 hr.

    Congratulations, and wishing you and rapid recovery! Were you in surgery for 10 hours? Or you had surgery 10 hours ago?
  2. The Protein levels that are typically recommended are our basic maintenance needs, or a little above - the amount needed to do the normal replacement of our muscle and organ tissues over the course of our daily living, plus what's needed to supply the amino acids that drive various biological functions in our bodies. These maintenance levels generally correspond to our lean body mass, so most women are fine in the 50-70 gm per day range while most guys need in the 70-100 gm per day range (more if one is particularly muscular, and still more if one is actively trying to build muscle mass.) Think about it - 100 gm protein is 400 calories, or 10-20% of our typical pre-op couch potato diet, so hitting those basic levels is largely incidental amongst all the other things that we are eating. However, post-op, we still need that basic maintenance level, plus a bit more for healing, etc., so we work to minimize most everything except protein in our post op weight loss diets - we may be running 50-80% protein, representing the dramatically lower proportions of carbs and fats during that time. Also, protein tends to be more satisfying, and longer, than carbs or fats, so there is another emphasis on protein there - it's easier to eat less overall if we eat protein forward so many eat more protein than the minimum for that reason.
  3. Getting a bit nervous about going alone and date is two weeks from today. Hoping to meet up with a familiar face/font!
  4. Hey folks - I'm brand new to this forum. After months of research and (im)patiently waiting, my surgery is set! I'm scheduled for SIPS on March 10th 2016 in Raleigh, NC. I'll start my liver reduction diet in about a week. In the meantime, I'm enjoying my last few sips of Coke Zero, while I can. Super stoked about this new chapter and finally having the tools to work the weight loss, after an entire life of being heavy. It's all I've ever known, but I'm really looking forward to a new lifestyle. Anyway, I'll refrain from getting into some heavy-duty topics for now. I just wanted to introduce myself and say hi!

    Realistic Weight Loss Expectations

    I never set a goal. I felt it would be too much pressure on me. In the first month, I lost 19 lbs. Compared to other DSers it's wasn't as much. I was happy, though, bc I asked myself when had I ever lost that much weight in 1 month? My suggestion is to use that 12-18 month post op period to its fullest. It's the fastest you'll lose weight (you'll still lose years later if you want to but at a slower rate) so really let the DS work its magic.
  6. Postop

    Had my preop appointment today

    Just free weights. I own 1lb., 5lb. and 10lb. ones. I used to have a weight bench and curl bar so I could add weight onto it. You can google curl bar and see what I mean or I can point you to some links. I had to sell the weight bench and curl bar, unfortunately, bc I have tendon and ligament issues and am only allowed to lift up to 10 lbs. That's why I now use free weights. Oh, and these tendon and ligament issues have nothing to do with the DS. They began long before I had it done.

    Gastric sleeve

    From what I was told they only submit one weigh in I'm just not sure if it's the first one or last one. I would think last one but I don't know. They do submit the letter of necessity from your doctor that has all 6 weigh ins so keep that in mind. I have Fidelis for the month of September but ended up switching to Metroplus cause with Metroplus is no wait time. But I won't get that till October. If you can change go for it. My first consult was with Dr. Kini also in Mount Sinai St Luke's on the 23rd. My BMI is 42.5 but he only wants me to lose up to 10 lbs with that calculation it will be 40.8 (BMI) which makes me believe that I shouldn't be less then 40 to get approve. Good luck keep me update. BTW you look familiar did you go to the support group yesterday?

  9. Hi everyone! I am new to this site, my Daughter has had her surgery 2/10/16. We need help with food ideas, she is not hungry at all. She is lactose intolerant, we have a couple GENEPRO samples on the way in the mail, I hope she loves that protein! Today she can add fish!!! Yay!!! It just seems like the there would be other things she could add also! Any advise? Barb Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    New here

    Good luck to you all. I remember that excitement. One thing for sure, the hospital stay, surgery, and recovery was 10 times easier than expected. I was bored, driving and shopping four days after the sleeve.

    Im thinking about this surgery

    @@candacer If you search success stories on this site you will likely get alot of information. I was 51 when I had RNY gastric bypass. I chose bypass over sleeve because I suffered from GERD and RNY is know to cure it. I also had diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, sleep apnea and stage 3 kidney disease. I am 5'10" and at my heaviest weight was 315 lbs. I lost a 152lbs in 18 months and reached my goal this past march. I went from a size 26 to a size 8/10. Best of all I no longer have GERD, sleep apnea, high BP or high cholesterol. My diabetes has been in remission since the day I had surgery and my stage 3 kidney disease has been in remission since 3 months post op. For me, having this surgery was the best thing I ever did. I had no complications and I believe that is because I followed doctors orders to the letter. I was scared when i started mostly because of all the required change but once I started the process i kept my goals top of mind and they literally drove me. Best of luck to you!

    Lost my friend after surgury

    Re-read your own post. Your "friend" was always a monster. It was until when you were down and needed help that you realized what a terrible person she was, surgery was just a coincidence. I love everyone that I love so much more post-op. The issues I went through with my help to get to the point of surgery really made me value life more. When I see people posting about cheating on their spouses post-op and assorted other things it surprises me. My love for people and the world has increased 10 fold. I would never want to harm anyone or cause them pain.

    2 week post op milestone?

    I don't mean to be disrespectful but did want to encourage you. You need to eat slowly and listen to your band. Taking your time lets you get that full feeling. When you get that feeling listen to your body. I weight 232 now....down 13 lbs in 10 days post op. I couldn't jog if you payed me. I am a walker at this point. However, my MD told me yesterday at my post op appt that I could start getting in the pool....but no laps for a few more weeks and to take it easy with the exercise til I was healed. Wishing you all the best. Chin up and enjoy your amazing tool!

    Omg This Pain

    The first month or so after surgery I had soreness and pain around my port site. Remember they had to make a place in your abdominal fat to secure your band to so a little soreness and pain is normal. That is one reason they tell us not to bend over(from the waist, squat instead) the first six weeks post op. Also no heavy lifting. As far as chocking and difficutly swallowing, everyone is different. All surgeons have different post op diets, some keep you on clear liquids and full liquids longer. Mine allowed me to eat solids after 10 days. I had to use my pain medication off and on for the first week to 10 days and the medication for nauesa for the first month. If you really feel uncomfortable, call your surgeon, that is why we pay them the big bucks. Your surgeon or office should be avalibe to answer your questions and concerns. The pain does get better and you barely notice you have a port unless you bump it. Some times my panty hose or a skirt or pants that are to tight can make my port hurt. When was your surgery? Have you been back to your WLS for posp op check up? Good Luck!
  15. I had my surgery 5 hours away from home. Discharged the day of surgery and spent the night in hotel close to surgery center and went home next morning. Doctor wanted us to stop every hour or 2 and walk for 10 min. I really had no problems wouldn't want too but could have rode for another 3 or 4 hours.
  16. I'm starting day 5 of a 14 day liquid diet. I tried drinking a shake with my night time meds and it didn't work out. I got so sick. I'm supposed to have food with it. The next night I drank the shake and about 30 minutes ate a small banana and it went well. I figured that was better than just picking something up to eat. Surgery date 10/25.

    Eat To Lose ???

    Grandma: You just had the surgery last month. You are doing great..God gives us 1 day at a time. Give your body 1 day at time. Relax, learn the rules because the lapband is in your body for the rest of your life. (if you want it to) I am sure once you reach your goal (and you will in time) You do not want to gain it back ie: yo yo effect. This is it. For myself the last 10 lbs were hard to loose and I realized that if I want to maintain which I have for 1 year. I am to be on it for the rest of my life. I am commited to do so. Keep up all the good work that you are doing. And sometimes our goal in our head is not the same goal as the body wants to have.
  18. I hag my surgery 8/19 and just released to go home 8/22. My hospital experience was horrible. The post op nurse withheld all fluids and refused to activate my pain pump saying I didn't need it. We demanded she check with the surgeon and she said she did and he said no. Finally the charge nurse made her give me ice chips, but only getting one dose of pain meds every 4 hours I never got my pain under control. The surgeon came in the next day and was FURIOUS that she went against orders and she was removed immediately. Apparently she never even asked him about the pain meds or fluids. I got apologies from director of nursing, the hospital patient advocate and the surgeon, who stated my recovery would be "stunted" because of the lack of pain control and now dehydration. It earned me an extra day in the hospital and 3 days of being treated like I was lazy after every shift change for not being farther along in my recovery. I am finally home, but the pain is still horrible. I have gas pain trapped in my left shoulder that is killing me, and the abdomen pain is almost unbearable. I'm getting very little walking in due to the pain and depending on the Dr, I'm pushing myself too hard, or not walking enough. I'm not getting any sleep due to the pain. Even I do walk the pain overwhelms me and I get very nauseous and shaky. I take my nausea meds then spend an hour recovering. I'm feeling so defeated and worn out. I don't know what to do. Any advice or encouragement? Will this pain ever subside?

  21. Yep, They had prescribed me loritab 10's, 120 of them for after surgery and I had no clue how much that was in liquid form so I went and exchanged it from my pharmicist and it was 5 huge bottles of liquid loritab which I never even needed. I finally threw it out it went out of date, but you do need to either crush or quarter larger pills or use liquid. I felt what you are feeling after surgery for about 3 weeks and then I guess after the swelling went down I got hungry again so I got my first fill at 3 1/2 weeks. To get really good restriction it took me 2 fills but it feels the same as what your feeling and it stays that way when you keep your fills right. You know it when you get there. I don't ever sit and think, hum, what do I want for lunch or supper, you just don't sit and think about food anymore and usually after 1 cup your like, God, I'm so full. You stay full too until next meal and I forget to eat alot of the time. It's a great feeling.
  22. Hi all -- I was banded on August 29 - a week later (and 10 lbs less!) I'm so hungry I could eat my shoes. On past diets, I've been able to get away with a tablespoon of Peanut Butter - hits the spot without triggering overeating -- but I'm not sure that it would count as a "soft" food? Actually, I'm technically support to be on liquid Protein for another 2 weeks, but frankly, I'm hungry enough and feel sufficiently recovered that if PB falls under the mushie stage and people haven't had problems with it, then I'm willing to chance it! Thanks in advance for your advice! Danielle
  23. I just got my 2nd fill 4 days ago. I now have 1.7 cc in my 4.cc band. I can still eat a smaller normal sized meal. Should I feel full after 1/2 c. of food (protein)? I am not losing. Infact I have only lost a total of 3-4 lbs since surgery. I lost 10 originally but have gained. I guess I'm going to have to go on a strict diet. I was hoping that this band would work better than this. I was hoping that I couldn't eat more than a 1/2 c. food comfortably. Maybe I just don't have enough of a fill. How should I feel when it's working right? Anybody else have over 2cc's in their 4cc band?

    Not Understanding Dr's Fees

    Thanks for the replies, everyone! Right now, I'm in a holding pattern, because I found out last week that my employer's policy with United does NOT cover any kind of bariatric surgery AT ALL. This, despite me calling UHC on three different occasions and each time giving them the procedure code as well as my group and subscriber numbers. Each time, they told me that our policy covered it at 90% with an in-network doctor. I was going to the seminar with Dr Hitchcock at KC Bariatric, and thanks to the advice of their front office, I contacted my HR to get a copy of the coverage details of our insurance. It was only when I spoke with HR that I was told that our policy doesn't cover bariatrics. Even if I were to have a BMI over 40, and co-morbidities, they will not cover. So right now, I'm stuck. I really want to do this, but self pay isn't an option. I could more easily deal with paying off 10% as opposed to 100%. I kind of don't know what to do next.
  25. Captain, I totally understand the big and in shape problem. I was a swat officer for 10 years. I was always in the high 2's close to 300 but could still run and do my pt test to stay on the team. I was the slam guy so a little extra size never hurt. Then I moved to the reserve division and went to work doing what I went to school for. It was no time until I was way to big. It's all good now though. I will be back to size in no time. Then my gear will start to fit again...lol.
