Congrats! Fitting into clothes is the best!

Congratulations. That is awesome!

I am right there with you. I see my Dr. next Tuesday afternoon and can't wait to have something other than shakes and soup!

Congrats on being banded. I was banded on Monday and I thought at some point this week, I might regret my decision. I don't regret anything. It's been a good experience so far and I'm looking forward to what the future brings! Hope you heal fast!

This was a great post to read. I had band with plication surgery yesterday. I can not tolerate the pain meds so am just taking tylenol. So far it is bearable but I think I have a high pain tolerance in general. I am glad to hear you feel great 8 days out. I go back to work next Tuesday and hope to be feeling pain-free. Best of luck to you! I am looking forward to watching your progress!

My surgery is tomorrow, too. What time is your surgery. Mine is scheduled for 9am. Is it outpatient? I hope to be home by mid-afternoon tomorrow. Best of luck.

Hi! My surgery is also on Jan. 21. For me, today has been the hardest of the pre op diet (day 6). During the work week, my day is very structured leaving little time to think about food. We can do this!
