I am going on 7 weeks post op this coming Tuesday.Yay! I just want to let those of you that are going to have the surgery that's it is though getting through the first couple of weeks well it was for me. I see people post on here how they have regrets and I went through the same thing for the first week or two but now I'm over it. I am starting to feel so much better now! I do have some port pain which is weird cause I didn't have it in the beginning but I read that its normal to get some pain in that area. I have also had my first fill going for another in one week and the first went good I didn't feel any pain at all. I may only get .5cc because I have been doing so good. I started at 207.8 pre op and now I'm 177.2 I can't really see a difference but everyone else can I think it all just happened so fast and its all in my head. Well just some information for you guys. Also I love myfitness pal if you haven't joined I recommend you do its an awesome app.

I am so addicted to the scale I get on everyday when I wake up. I think I am going to try skipping a week because I went 10 days without losing anything and I was really getting frustrated so maybe not such a good idea to get on everyday. I am going on 6wks post op this tues. And I am down 30lbs=).

Hey guys I signed up to fitness pal my username is jackie3112 please invite me. Also can someone let me know how this whole thing works I really haven't looked into it but have seen so many people joining.

I agree with using a heating pad that helped me so much during my recovery. I took my pain meds for the first 3-4 days and it really helped I don't see why it would give you more gas pain its for the pain so it should help. Also make sure you walk I would walk at least every hr for about 10min around my living room I believe that will help you. I really hope you start feeling better.

Yay. I did it today is one month post op and feeling awesome. Since surgery I have lost 14.5 lbs and 10lbs on my pre op diet so that puts me at 183.2 lbs today. Now time to hit the gym this week so I can start losing some more and gain some muscle. Good luck to all of you out there. If you have any questions feel free to ask.

Awesome! How are you feeling today? Also how was the surgery?

I had mines done on 3/13/2012 I just drink things very slow.

I will be updating how I am recovering cause I know I wanted to read as much as I could from everyone who was going through this so that way I knew what to expect.

I am on the same page as you not many people did I find that have this done at a lower BMI I started at 207.5 the first time I saw the surgeon then after my diet for the surgery I was 196.6 I am also 5ft 4in but I think if we just stick to our diet and excercise we will do good. I'm just gonna be postive about this and use this tool that I am grateful for. I have heard of success stories and I have heard of it not working so well too but I think it is up to us we just have to make that lifestyle change eat right and excercise.

I'm gonna be beautifully banded on march19th!!!
