banded-Moroccan

Tried the Dukan diet as a 'last' diet before I decided to go for surgery, I lost 3kg in 3 weeks, but at the end of 3 weeks, I hated everything called meat/fish/chicken/diaries as it was all what I could have - I missed fruits, vegs, and juices. I gave up and decided to go for lap band. Had my surgery 2/5/12 and lost already 5kg, I am eating very well think I need a fill which I will have only in the 9th of June.

Hi all, Don't Know if anyone has experienced this or not. I eat like a champion, my band stops me when I am full (means I can't eat more, otherwise, my tomach hurts me and I feel stuck). The problem is, I digest quickly maybe, but I am always hungry and eat every 2 hours... Is that normal?

Sorry to hear that Tricia I hope you get better very soon.

You Will be ok. Best of luck.

Give yourself some force! I made a spinach and chicken soup with onions, filter it, and added done fat free cream. It was awesome and liquid

Banded May 2 too. I feel better , I will see my doctor tomorrow!

I stayed overnight too - doesn't hurt! My doctor said it's good in order to avoid any complications!

Today is 5 days post op for me, the gaz pain has gone, I can walk and live quite normally. However, I still feel the incisions and walk with vended back, I still need the pain killers to be able to do what I do quite normally. I don't advise u for May 31st though . Stick to your date in June, and believe me, u won't change your mind. At the end, the lap band really worth waiting for Update us on your last decision, and know that we re all here to support u whatever u want to do

Obviously very nervous and stressed out, the only thing that is keeping me feel good is all the great success stories I read, see, and hear over the Internet. I have a lot of friends who think it's the wrong thing to do, especially when they tell me about the people they know whome the band wasn't a success I just feel I don't want to be with these friends anymore, and I'm waiting for the day we'll meet again to see the new me, and prove to all of them I took the right decision. Wish me all good luck!
