having surgery nov 5th, 2 days after bday, no cake for me!



Recommended Posts

I got approved, and I am running to get my lapband. I have had friends get approved then denied before they had surgery and I am not about to go through that.

anyway i was geting sick of the clear liquid diet and came across this website, and well, here i am.

i am a pretty fun person if a little distracted with school, but feel free to write me and i would love some recipe ideas, any thing. however, i am a person that cannot keep bad stuff in the house, so if i gotta strain it out, dont suggest it.

thanks,

monika:smile2:

Hi Monika,

Cake is highly overrated, besides, your getting something far better for your birthday...a healthier you!

Check out our food and nutrition forums located here:

Food and Nutrition - Lap Band Surgery and Lap Band Discussion Forum

There are a ton of great ideas there for all stages of banding.

Best of luck to you on the 5th, let us know how everything goes and if you have any questions.

Hello there...

I also had the same problem, Surgery on 9/26 and birthday 10/20. No cake for me either but I was happy not to eat it 1 month since and down 23lbs. Who needs cake anyway! Good Luck.

      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?
