Good luck with surgery!
I had mine fixed with surgery but no clue if it made healing more difficult

Ooooooo I hated that and my glue stayed on four weeks because of how I was glued(skin was fully together on to of them so it was also preventing my from healing-those two never itched)

Sorry I'm going to be a contrarian. A mother who is that concerned about what their child eats would have researched what the child would be fed before committing to that camp. Sounds like this woman was looking for advertising for her group that she founded. Personally I think this kind of behavior is what causes eating disorders. Telling a child certain foods are evil and bad is guaranteed to give them food issues.

Down about 5 pounds since last post 7ish in total

Success! I have my Pre-Op appointment this afternoon, and my surgery is still on for tomorrow. They said I was scheduled for Wednesday, but I never received a call. I even went back and double checked my voicemails, nothing. Someone oopsed. Oh well, I'm the last one to criticize another for forgetting something. My memory is horrible, drives my wife crazy.

Yes it is sorry about the typo happens frequently when I use my phone lol

Lol yes. My doctor had me lay with a pillow in the middle of my back and lift my legs up a bit off the table (but keeping my legs straight) and arms above head so he could locate the port better and faster.
That's honestly what made it a strange experience.. My doctor did not numb the spot but with all my focus on my legs I didn't feel much.

Unfortunately, the band itself is not a diet, you still have to diet and the band only helps control that. Set your MFP to about 1000 - 1200 cals a day to monitor. You can also set the carbs, Protein, and fat settings.
