Recommended Posts

Banded April 1st...Love my band I have lost 52lbs so far...I have a 10cc band I think, with one fill of 3cc's....Yesterday had a piece of dry chicken, worst thing anyone can do lol...Anyway I got so stuck i was in SOOOO MUCH PAIN...I wanted to die...I PB'ED a few times till finally the pain subsided. Now I have some after affects, and I want to know what you other lapbanders out there think...

Since my PB yesterday...I stopped food, and did liquids the whole nite...This morning i did only my coffee, and now made some lentil Soup...Now i have this crampy feeling, as if my tummy isn't happy...The crampy feeling is more on the right side then my left...BUT i can keep down liquids, and mushies ok...I just have this weird feeling....

I don't know if i should call the doctor for something that is normal...What do u guys think?

You're fine....sounds like it irritated your esophagus. Not to mention the mental impact, LOL. Heck, my first PB the food shot out of my mouth like a cannon ball. Thank God I was alone when that happened! You should be fine to eat mushy food or whatever goes down comfortably. It will go away pretty quickly.

      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.
