If I cry a tear drop in my spoon and drink it, will that be okay?

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.

I dont' even know what a firefly is. Did Plain make it up? erk it up? Whip it up?

is it healthy? does it have 85000 grams of Protein per serving?

will it stretch my band?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
