Haven't had the band put in yet, but I have a question that may be redundant. I have read back on the blog's and have not seen anything or anyone talking about playing sport's. I'm on a highly competitive Softball team and also play some other physical sports. I know I have to recover for a few week's but will there be any limitations for me? I know people are active still after the surgery walking and such, but is there anyone that can give me some input on this.

Aug 3rd. 2009 Band date,

That's a good question for your doctor. They told me to wait 4 weeks before I started lifting weights. I could start walking good distances after 3 weeks. I would suggest calling the doc office and asking. It probably varies by doctor and patient.
