WandaO

Hello everyone! My name is Wanda and I'm new to the group and this site for that matter I was banded on May 2nd so I'm officially one week out! I think I had a really easy post-op experience and haven't had any pain meds since Friday morning. I also never had gas pains that some complain about. Just feeling very fortunate that things went smoothly. I live in NY and have a 6 year old daughter named Catherine. My husband is a Major in the US Army and we are stationed at the West Point Military Academy for one more year. I'm a stay at home mom that homeschools and so my days are busy teaching my daughter. Which scares me that I won't find the time to exercise the way I should. Excited for the future and especially excited to share my journey with everyone that started this path at the same. I have alot of faith that this will help me achive my goals. My husband and I have been struggling with infertillity and this is the last thing that I can think to do. Hoping that weight loss will give my body enough of a kick that the unthinkable could happen. Can't wait to get to know all of you!!! Wanda

So excited for you! It will only get better. I'm officially 1 week out and i'm feeling great but, I'm still sore. Just s few more days and you'll be up and about

Crazy how we all have different plans. I was on water, crystal light, suger free pops and tea for the first 5 days. Now I'm on 3 protein shakes, water and tea for the next 2 weeks! Not moving on to mushy till the 21st of May. Then again my Dr. put 5cc's in my 10cc band during surgery. Only thing I really miss is coffee. Can't have any for another week.

So excited! Tomorrow is one week Post-Op! Never thought I would say those words. Good Luck everyone who is getting banded this week and especially today!!!
