  1. I have to agree....the band was a nightmare for me! Couldn't eat anything healthy....it came right back up! I was sleeved 7 weeks ago and it's getting better every day! So happy I was sleeved!
  2. I live in Dana Point, CA Would love to find a support group in OC!
  3. I'm here too!! I was in the hospital 4 nights...the pain was pretty bad. I guess because they had to take my band and port out. I'm home and feeling good now! I am sipping protein shakes (2 a day) and water. So far so good!
  4. I see my doctor tomorrow, but the surgery coordinator told me I didn't have to diet before surgery, just keep the calories around 1500. Nothing said about low carb....hummmm. She said I will be on a liquid diet for 2 days before surgery (Sat. and Sunday)...yikes....I'm afraid. I'm less excited and more fearful...I gotta get past this! :001_unsure:
  5. I'm SO happy to hear the good news. I'm going from band (hate it) to sleeve next Monday! I could not eat healthy food with the band...just came back up. Frustrated, I had no restriction for the last 3 years. I hope the sleeve is different!
  6. Me too!! I'm set for the sleeve on the 19th!! I'm SCARED!
