Question:
Had my revision from lap band to rny...
Just wanted to let everyone know that my sugery went well. I went from lapband to rny on Tuesday May 11. All that worrying and it was not bad at all. I think the lap band was wrost with the pain. I went home on Thursday night. So far everthing is going really good. I go back to the doctor on Wed to get the staples out and I should feel even better. On my way to a new me. Thanks for all the prays. I am not out yet I will still need info. Just wanted to give an update..Thanks — JANIECEMOM (posted on May 16, 2010)

Congratulations! I am having the same surgery on June 8th & am getting
really anxious. Anything you could share with me will be much appreciated.
I'm not really sure what to expect. I'm glad you are feeling better.

Thanks all, I went to the doctor today, had a rash on my stomach, it came
from the blood thiner shots they gave me in the hospital. I have lost 11
lbs. So happy & proud. I go back Wed to get the staples. I hope i lost
more. Today was the first day that i felt hungery but the protein drinks
took care of that.. On my way..

Hi Christy, I was so scared and nerves up until the day before the surgery,
it all went away.I prayed alot and still is praying. I was so surpise that
it was nothing like I thought it would be. I went in looking for the worst
and came out better then I was with the lap band. This is a long jounery.
We all is going to walk it togather. Just think about the weight u want to
lose. I have not lost any weight in a year. I gain weight everyday so it
seams. I was to happy for that 11lbs lost in six days. I will post again
after my doctor appoiment Wed. Just think about the weight u want to lose.

Julia, I am so glad to hear that all went well with the revision and you
are already losing weight. That is fantastic! I was revised from a VBG to
an RNY 10 years ago and like you, I was surprised that the pain from the
RNY was NOTHING compared to the VBG which was more painful than anything I
had ever had. Also, people had told me I would lose slower with a revision
but that wasn't the case either. Thank you for updating and letting those
know who are following behind you that they won't necessarily have a rough
time. Like you, they may be pleasantly surprised! I wish you nothing but
the very best and you start on this new journey. God bless!!

I am in the process of having revison from lap band to rny and I am sooo
nervous of the risks the doc has made me aware of. It makes me feel better
hearing from someone that is doing well after the revision.

revison in July to rny. That is if I don't chicken out. What you posted
today really made me fell more at ease. I am so afraid of the rny. Keep me

Panda please dont chiken out, this is by far the best thing I have ever
done. I am only a week out and was looking for the wrost and got nothing
but good things. I am on soft foods and I think a baby eats more then I do.
I have been hugery all of my life. I use to could eat a foot long sub and
now I can only eat a half of a small baby bowl of mashed potato. I am on my
way to being the person I always wanted to be. A smaller me.. Please dont
change your mind. That band got to go. I am here anytime u need to chat.
Her is my personal email address [email protected] I want u on that
winning bench with me.
