  13. Does anyone have issues with medication not working or absorbing the way it use to before surgery? I take pain medication for a chronic pain condition and feel like my medicine is not working as well as it use to and that I need to take it more often and higher dose to get the relief I use to get before getting banded..

  20. I was able to have the small low profile port put in when I was banded as I didn't have much fat where the port gOes and I'm so happy as I was very worried about it protruding once I'm at goal and have my plastic surgery. My surgeon did say that having a low profile port put in later would be an option and they could possibly do it during the Tt. You may want to talk to your Dr about that option..

  21. I'm only two weeks post op from being banded but I'm researching PS and I'm leaning towards a mermaid lift once I hit goal and maintain for 3 months. Has anyone had the mermaid lift?I will also be having a breast reduction and lift and possibly my arms done but not 100% as Ill prob just be able to keep them toned with weights! Any info or advice is greatly appreciated.. Banded August 28 2012<br />Starting weight 293<br />Day of surgery weight 273<br />Current weight 258<br />Goal weight 160 5ft 10
  22. I started the day after surgery with 30 minute walks and now two weeks post op I'm back in the gym 2 hours a day doing my normal cardio and light weights! Our all depends on you're body and when you feel well enough to excersize...
