I just came from the doctor today and she approved me for my revision!!! Im so excited to begin my new journey  with the bypass!! She said I will have the surgery sometime before the end of the year!! So wish me well.

Hey, Its been so long since I have made a post on here but, I am starting everything over today. I had the Realize Band in 2009 and I have gained all the weight back that I lost plus a little more...yea it sucks, I know. However, I have decided to have a revision to a RNY. I am getting excited again!! Ive been trying to read everyone's success stories about it and come across soooo many people that were banded and didnt lose weight the way they thought they should and ended up getting a revision. I haven't been approved just yet for the revision but im up to like 340lbs now so I cant see why I wouldn't approve it. My consultation is on the 15th so I'll keep u posted!!!

I havent weighed myselft since I left the doctor's office but, I can feel the difference. Today at work we were able to wear jeans and I have been pulling mine up ALL DAY LONG. And everyone has been saying that my clothes are too big for me. I almost feel tacky! But its a good feeling. Since my last fill I havent been feeling hungry at all. I can eat just a little and im stuffed. I Love it!!

Ok so i went for my 1st appt. today and I also got my first fill!!!

I LOST 19 LBS!!!!! YAY!!!

I was sooooooooooo excited!!! I cant believe it! I got a fill of 3cc. Lets see how much restriction i will have now!!

Stay tuned!

 

i finally have my band!!! yippeee!!!!

i am so excited. i am not really hungry at all. i am a little in pain because i have not picked up  my pain medicine yet...but im going to get it first thing in the morning.  it kinda feels like wen i had my baby. it just hurts wen i try to get up and move around.

im also have sharp pains in my stomach(not unbareable pain) and then i have gas. but thats about it. i can handle it though. im just excited to began my weight loss journey!!!!

ok...now i am really freaking out!! I have to have lost 11 lbs within the last two weeks in order to have my surgery and i am terrified that i havent lost that much. On top of that my surgery is this coming Monday and I am scared to death. Im just thinking about all of the pain that i am goin to be be in afterwards. And I hate having an IV in my arm.

Ok... i need to just calm down and pray and dont worry about it.

Ok so this diet before the surgery is starving me. I have surgery on the 24th and its coming fast. I have to lose 11 lbs before they will let me even have surgery. I hope I can do it. I am so scared that I will only lose about 7 or 8 lbs and they tell me no!! I will just die. I am soooo excited about my upcoming surgery. My only problem is that I will be one of those people that dont do well with the band. Ok...im not going to think like that. I will only think positive!!
