Hi pre and post bandits,

 

I am jumping on the BAND wagon... no pun intended. Any last suggestions. I have lost about 10 lbs on this pre diet and I feel ok. Dont get me wrong I want a piece of steak with italian bread. But thats what got me to this weight in the first place. I have my surgery may 3rd. Yikes.

 

One question, how long did everyone feel uncomfortable, or felt ok to go back to work...

 

Thanks

    I just got banded last thursday 4/26, and I returned to work yesterday. I feel fine, except for some pain in my left shoulder, which I hear is pretty common.

    Good Luck!

    I got my band on March 26 and was back at work on 27th after I was released from the hospital. I guess it all depends on you and your job.

    My surgery was 4/23 and I went back to work 4/25. I'm an Educational Diagnostician, so mostly desk work, but some walking as well. I was very tired the first few days, and my belly was sore as well. Now I feel better than I did when I went in. I think the walking around helped.

    You'll do fine! Congratulations!!!
