I feel like a failure!!!

Posted 07-02-2008 at 11:11 PM by Jorge1976
Hello my name is Jorge and I live in Queen Creek, Arizona. I am 32 years old and I weigh 499 lbs, thats if I havent gained all my weight back. I got my lap band surgery on May 12 2008 and I went down from 537 lbs to 499 the week before my surgery. Even after my surgery I was doing good with my preop and postop liquid and soft food diet stages, until about the 3rd or 4th week when I was able to eat regular foods now I am out of control. My food addiction has kicked in. I was supposed to go for my...

1. Not get anxious about flying on a plane somewhere because the seatbelt "might" not fit around me.

One week

Posted 07-02-2008 at 05:21 PM by KristieT
It's been one week since my surgery. I'm glad it's over because I was so nervous. So far, the only problem I've had is the pain on Sunday/Monday (doctor saw me and it was just some irritation in the muscle) and also constipation. (I finally just went a few minutes ago....OMG, thank goodness!)

When I had my pre-op I was weighing in at 273 and my BMI was a whopping 43.

When I weighed at the doctor Monday, I was 264. On my scale last night, I was 264 as well so I guess...

Yea! I went in to the OTC (Obesity Treatment Center) today for my first fill and actually got a fill. She numbed me and hit the port - yea! Such a relief from the last time. They weren't sure how much was in my band, so she checked - I was at 4.5 cc. Seeing that I had little restriction (mostly in the morning) she gave me 1.5 cc...I'm now at 6.

So far water has gone down fine - I'm on liquids tonight and then will progress to mushies and soft foods tomorrow. I'm happy to finally have...

very frustrated

Posted 07-02-2008 at 02:03 PM by mom2twins
over a week since my appointment and they still haven't sent the request to the insurance company for approval. it really makes me mad that they don't care. I understand that they have to go on vacation but make sure your paperwork is done before you leave, especially when it affects other peoples lives. I never felt very big until I started research on the band, and since then I am very aware of how big I truely am. I have even stopped going to a buffet because I don't like the thought that...
