Surgery March 7,2015
Listen to your dr. If he requires a pre op diet do not cheat! It's hard but it will prepare you for afterwards. I had a smooth operation just a little nausea. Stayed out of work for one week and worked from home the 2nd week

1 week post op
I am one week PO today also. I'm down 8lbs since surgery and on a full liquid diet. I see my surgeon Friday for my follow up. He warned me not to introduce any foods until I saw him for my follow up. I'm sticking to his rules. I feel great no pain or anything. Just trying to get back in the swing of things

JULY 2013 BAND BUDDIES
Went today for my 4 week post op. Down 16 lbs since surgery. My dr was pleased. I told him I felt hungry a lot so he did an x ray after I swallowed some barium. He said everything looked fine an to my surprise he said he would give me a fill. So I had 2 cc in my band already so he just bumped it up to 3 cc. Liquids for the next 24 hours ???” Hopefully I won't feel hungry
