  1. I was also banded Thursday. My Dr. told me I will burp over the next few days to let the gas out that was used during surgery. I'm still a little sore today. Wish you a speedy recovery.
  2. My surgery was Thursday also, congrats. My doctor said not to shower to Saturday. Because I was scared to do it I waited till today and just took it easy, no hard scrubbing. I don't recommend the loofah. You'll be fine and feel refreshed.
  3. I'm having surgery in Philadelphia. Let's definitely keep in touch, especially during the pre-op diet. I have a feeling that's going to be real tough.
  4. Congrats! My surgery date is also Sept 8! I need to start the 2 wk pre op liquid diet on 8/25. Will you be doing a pre-op liquid diet?
  5. Congrats! I'm scheduled for Sept. 8. I also can't wait to get this over with, counting down the days. I'm sure as I get closer I will start to get nervous.
