But, my friend told me her doctor's nurse told her to tell somebody that you can't shower if you have the band. And I'm new. Will somebody please respond? I just don't know what to do. I haven't been banded yet but I think I'll get de-banded tomorrow. So, can you shower if you're bandededed?

Okay, you can shower. But you CAN'T get your stomach wet (incisions, of course), and you can't use your detachable shower head... down there... Even if you have the pulse setting. DO NOT DO IT!!

PLAIN??? Uh, did you wake up in a tub full of ice? And are you sure you have both your kidneys?? :confused:

So, what's a kidney weigh, anyway? Just think, a little drink, a little prick (needle, not Plain), wake up x-pounds lighter. I think it's a good deal. Do you have to go to MX tho? I don't speak nothing but English good so I'd be scared. Yeah, I know...ask my doctor on Monday....

Just don't eat or drink anything Plain gives you and you'll be fine.

And get your Water in.

And ask your doctor.

And leave the possums alone.

I hate my surgeon. He put in my band and when I asked to have it removed the next day he said NO! WTH!

How will I know if I am hydrated?

If you've got gills.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
