I have a constant pull at my incision site, no pain anywhere and I have spent the last 3 days in the recliner..did anyone else have this? I can't sit up, I have to stay in a relaxed position to get the pressure off

Awesome job!

Thanks for posting!

I am trying to figure this out.. I was just banded Tuesday, but I am not getting much down. I feel tight in my stomach and have only had 1 protein shake and some water.. My tummy grumbles like its hungry but I am almost convinced its the gas dispersing. Does this sound normal?

I did it! Surgery went great no complications and feel good! Woo Hoo I did it!

I just had mine yesterday. I am pretty sore and not really taking much pain med... I can walk without discomfort, it's the getting up and down that get me.. I took the week off, i tried driving this am and couldn't do it!

Good luck! Don't forget Chapstick! That was what I forgot!

Well I am banded! Pretty in eventful, just sore.. Will post more tomorrow!

Today is the day! Leaving in 15 minutes! So excited, nervous and anxious! The scale was good to me! I am down 17lbs from pre-op diet! Have a great day all and say a little prayer for me!

My post op is surgery day all clear, 4 days liquid with protein shakes, then 10 days puréed, 14 days soft, then regular food!... What was your pre-op? I was 14 days liquid.... And as of this morning down14 lbs!

Ah... My surgery eve! Clear liquids only today! So excited... In 24 hours I will be checked into the surgical center, getting my IV and preparing for surgery!

2 more days!!!!!! So excited!

I am only 4 days away!! Woo Hoo lets celebrate! Still down 12lbs.. waiting for that number to change! I was really hoping for 16, not sure why I picked that number but I will take 12! Today is my last day of work for a week... Trying to get everything caught up and ready for my absence. Glad to hear all the newly banded doing so well!

I hear ya! I feel like I have been on the count down for a few months! My surgery is finally next Tuesday! So excited and ready to be on to the next step. I wish I were a more patient person. Oh well... it's almost here! I am down to 1 hand!

I agree with this 100%..

I am at day 8 of 14 of pre-op diet..down12 lbs..Struggling today, I want food! Just keep telling myself I can do this!
