I don't believe it is. Are you maybe getting the flu? Sometimes fever are signs of infection it couldnt hurt to maybe get checked out by a doctor

Make sure you are really well hydrated. I ate about 4 o clock the afternoon before and then nothing till after my fill. I believe they say you shouldnt eat 5 or 6 hours before a fill i played it cautious.

i went through a few days of nausea between about day 7 and 10. I just tried to power through it and once i got on yogurts and a few other things it seemed to have gotten better

Was in tijuana on Monday/Tuesday for a fill and everything was fine. Was actually quieter then when we were there at the end of june for my surgery

Congrats on making the best decision of your life. The OCC is the most wondervul cleanest state of the art place. The staff are amazing and before you know it you will be banded and starting your new life. I was banded june 28th and in all am down 30 pounds.

I think more then anything on Liquids i was missing the feeling of fullness. When a person can't have something they think they are missing it.

You will burp alot for 7 - 10 days. ALOT

Vitamin water

hang in there. solid foods wasnt as great as i thought they were gonna be after over a month on liquids

I was told at least 3 weeks

21 days of liquid post op was an absolute grind for me. I just krp telling myself i have ate enough solid food in my life that 3 weeks with out wont kill me. I thought of things like when i am at my goal weight how good i am gonna look in new clothes. or when i have lost a 100 pounds and see somebody i ahvent seen in like a year how blown away they will be and how good that will feel. Keep your mind busy and you will do great

you need to go to alberta health care's website and print off an out of country expense form. send that in with receipts from occ

Well thats good news as i sent in my claim about 3 weeks ago

Good luck it will be great. Congrats on your new lifestyle change.

OCC rocks you wont be sorry

I just wanted to say thanks to everyone on here for there support, positive comments and all the questions you have answered. Today is day 21 of Post op and i dont think i would have made it without you guys

Take gas x strips, walk around as much as possible in the hours and days after surgery (gets the gas out) and dont be alarmed by the paper underwear we all had to wear them

Honestly the last week has been horrible. First 7 or 8 days wasnt hungry. Then started on Yogurt and full liquids and had 3 days of very upset tummy and a few days of moderate hunger. last week has been horrible. i hear ya when it comes to protein shakes and creamy soup not cutting it. I work an oilfield joba nd have been out of town the last week to boot and have had a hard time. Ive been trying fruit smoothies and milkshakes and they havent helped either. Tomorrow is day 21 post op for me and i am looking forward to smaller portions of real food

i know some runners put deodarant on there thighs to help with that. Also maybe try a hydration pack. that way you can sip the whole way
