I didn't get a binder but Idid get the breathing thing. It helped and I don't have any abdominal pains. I was able to get up and down easily because I have a ergomatic bed.

I loved reading the stories about your cpap and masks. LOL Now that I think of it, my husband calls me Darth Vadar. LOL I look forward to a post op test to be rid of mine one day.

I have this problem too. i have gotten more hiccups in the past month than ever. They usually go away fast.

Unjury is good with any liquid. Be sure that hot liquids are not over 140 F. I also like the Gladiator shakes from Smoothie King. They are wonderful and you can chose two fruit to mix in them. (Yes these were recommended by my doctor!)

Great job ladies. I have been banded 3 weeks and due for first fill.

I would love to try the noodles, but most of these recipes call for shrimp. I am allergic to shrimp. Could you substitute other meats or will the fishy smell overwhelm the other protein?

I have only been banded a month, but I am not having any trouble with my CPAP machine so far. I try to stay hydrated during the day and at night I sleep fine.

That is what I am doing. I dont want to test it either.
-
I get hiccups a lot now also. Is that normal?
-
Great ideas.
-
I have quite a bit of pounds to go, but I also would like to have that friend support as much as possible. I was banded on 10/25/12 and would love advice and comments from those veterans. Thanks.

Lucky you if you could be alone. LOL my hubby insisted that I have a nurse 24/7. I felt guilty that my sister had to stay every day until he got home at night, so he dismissed one nurse and carted me off to my mother -in-law who is a retired nurse and there I stayed until today when I drove myself home. I love my mother in…

Good point!:wink:

My pre-op only called for two meal replacement shakes and solids for dinner. Lean meat, 1 cup green veggie, 1 cup of fruit. No bananas no bread, no pasta, no rice. I worked well. I lost 21 lbs. but I only had to do two weeks pre op.:smile:

This sounds great!

Wow, as a stated before you look great! I find you inspirational and hope to post my during and after photos one day! Keep it up.:happy:

I thought bean and hummus was okay? I am not at that level yet. Only two weeks out, but I would love to know what healthy Chinese foods we could eat. I was on a web site that was hosted by two ladies who have been banded for 10 years and they loved Sushi! I would love to eat Sushi it was one of my favorites pre-surgery.

I started a little early so I lost a total of 21 lbs by surgery.

Congratulations!

Hi, i recently had the lap band surgery. Some people say they find them too much to do (adjustments, etc.) I don't see anything severe about having it. I researched all methods very carefully and for the past ten years I have been considering it. I found that I wanted to do the lap band and I know I can be successful if I…
