18 lbs in a month is awesome ! Be kind to yourself ! Remember 2 lbs a week is the goal

I didn't ask how many cc's I have Gish I had asked I go back next week and I'll ask He really didn't want to remove any Glad my hubby was there and spoke up !

Hi LA Lady We were banded the same day I also have the gas pain Also my throat is really sore The intubation did it but it's really bad and now when I wake up my mouth is totally dry Not one drop of saliva I have to keep water next to me to wet my mouth I don't know why this is happening Did they pay for your tooth? Good luck !

I'm new Banded 9/20 When I drink it feels like pressure In the middle of my chest When you eat solid food is it an uncomfortable pressure in your chest ? Do you feel full on the belly or higher up ?

My Dr said to take the pain meds Being in pain hinders healing

I am 6 days post op and I slept for 4 days I had more pain than I expected like burning hot knives in my left side And bad gas Couldn't drink without pain Dr took 2 cc out of the band yesterday and I feel better today

I have severe heart burn I took milk of magnesia and finally went to the bathroom Water even gives me heartburn and the protien shake kill me. Needless to say I am weak from not eating. I'm going to the Dr tomorrow. Hope he can do something I wonder if I did the right thing getting banded!

Had my band implanted 9/20 I'm in much more pain than I expected Hope this will be worth it

I'm going on Sept 20th Optifast starts Sept 6 th Praying I can do this !!!

What is placation?
