Recommended Posts

hello everyone! i was banded on 11/19, and went home the same day...had lots of pain and didnt think the tylenol w/codeine was going 2 cut it...but i did lots of walking and sipping. by the 2nd day my sister was dragging me out of the house2 walk around my neighborhood and also 2 the grocery store. 2day is my 3rd day banded...no pain meds all day just gas x, Protein Shakes (little by little) and walking....im finally able 2 lie on my side, pull myself up w/o cringing in pain, and (release some of this built up gas)...i feel A LOT better, but am nervous about drinking too much and having some trouble remembering to keep sipping...i had 2 popsicles yesterday and got really full and freaked out for a minute then realized it was just liquids and calmed myself down lol...cant wait until i can at least have some "mushies" i have my tuna, faux lasagna (minus the noodles) dried Beans for Soups etc all stocked up....will continue to post as i go... :)

My back and sides are extremely sore. I have been walking around and that seems to help with the gas. But my lower back is very sore like I have pulled a muscle or something. Hope it stops soon.

I made mine in layers in a bowl. Ff ricotta cheese, dash of nutmeg, spinach or zucchini that I blended first, Tomato sauce, sprinkle of parmesan cheese. Heat in microwave.

It was sooo good. I even replaced veggies above with canned pumpkin once. It was to die for!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
