  1. Hello im new here and have a few questions. I am currently on my 3rd day of my pre OP diet. My surgery date is October 29th. I was wondering how long the surgery takes? (They will also be fixing my hiatal hernia) how long is the average Hospital stay? What you couldn't live without in the Hospital? And last if all what was the post OP pain like once you got home? Thank you and good luck to everyone. Hw: 320 lowest weight after band: 275 current weight: 279
  2. Hello im new here and will be having a gastric band revision on October 29th. I am currently on day 3 of my 2 week pre OP diet. I'm wondering how long your revision surgeries took and how long were you in the Hospital afterwards? Also what was the pain like post OP? Thank you
  3. So it's day 3 of my pre OP diet. The first two days were crazy. I was grumpy, super tired, and hungry. This morning I had energy and surprisingly wasn't hungry. I'm just wondering how the next 11 days went for everyone? My surgery date in October 29th. I'm super excited but still nervous. I'm also having my gastric band taking out when they do the gastric bypass. Anyone else have this revision from band to rny? How bad is the post OP pain and on average how long were you in the Hospital?
