    sistercin got a reaction from marlena_marie in ITS DONE!!!   
    He'll everyone,
    I was banded yesterday and Praise God everything went well. I had to have hernia repair done also, but EVERYTHING WENT GREAT! I will be honest and say that I had the worst gas pain ever after I was awaken. I just didn't expect that, but I've been takin pain Meds and I'm MUCH better. The gas is from the air that's pumped into your abdomen during the surgery. It's not your normal gas...trust me it's not.... NOW, remember we are all different everything doesn't affect us all the same. I had my procedure about 15 hrs ago and I'm soooo much better. Pray, take your med, include gas-x and walk. I'm moving forward and very excited.... Sistercin

    sistercin got a reaction from GoldiLocks66 in Any bandings in April???   
    Hello everyone!
    I'm scheduled for this Friday(April 19)... I'm nervous, but excited. My doctor did not put me on a liquid diet, just no sugar and lots of Protein. Has anyone out there had this same type of pre op?
    Also, I'm looking to lose 45-60lbs. I'm only 5"2 and weigh in at 210 give or take. My BMI is 39.5 and I'm self pay. Is there anyone out there that needs or had the band done with my similarities?...again, I'm nervous, but hope this is one of the best decisions I've ever made for my health....hope to hear from someone soon...Thanks!....Sistercin

    sistercin got a reaction from Mandymoo13 in Had surgery today   
    Hey mandymoo,
    I'm sistercin and you have made my day. I've been reading such negative post that I told my husband this morning that I didn't think I could do the band....mine set for April 19...I've been waiting to hear someone with great news and you've done it for me. I'm sooo glad you're doing well. I've gotta think positive and do this for me and my family. Please keep me and others like me updated on your success. Keep doing what you're doing!!!!
