I also banded 2-9-11 and today feeling much better. I had alot of muscle discomfort on day 2 and 3 from using muscles to get up and down. I hope you are feeling better and continue to progress!

I had my procedure on the 9th so I know how you feel. The first day home was tough and the next day too. I found that I became sore in areas that had nothing to do with the surgery because I was using all different muscles to move. This morning I feel pretty good - still some muscle pain in my back. I am doing the clear liquids through today and tomorrow I can start shakes - yeah. I did try to have some broth too quickly and felt some pressure - so I learned to just go slowly. Have a good day and things will get easier. Best of luck!

My surgery is also tomorrow. Where in NJ are you going? I am having it done in Oradel with Dr. Pucci.

Hello All! I have been reading the posts for all while but finally got the courage to "join in". I have a scheduled surgery date for Feb. 9th! Really looking forward to it - but a little nervous. I just completed all my tests and they went better than I expected. All your stories and courage are very inspired - thanks for sharing! Looking forward to going through the journey together.
