Did my first post-banding ride yesterday- 9 days post-op! It was a short outing; but, as of today, I am back to commuting to work on the bike! Happy to report that my big trip departing two weeks from now should be no problem! Keep the shiny side up! :clap2:

Hi Guys... Banded yesterday- 6/22. Dr is aware I have a 3,500mi trip planned on the bike in just under 4 weeks. Wish me luck! The wife and I are planning to ride from our home in AZ to Monterey, CA and Laguna Seca for the US MotoGP weekend, then spend another week looping back through Wyoming and Colorado.... So far, post surgery, I feel pretty good. I hope to spend part of Monday at least back at the office...

Greetings, I am new to the forum; but, my wife had her band placed in Feb of '06. My date is set for June 22nd. I am a little apprehensive after watching all my wife's ups and downs with the band; but, she's still moving towards her goal and swears she's still glad she did it. Besides that, I am really proud of her. Dr. here in Tucson is Monte Schwartz. Now all I have to do is try to avoid three weeks worth of "Last Meal Syndrome!" Wish me luck!

Husband here... Surgery scheduled 6/22 Departure for Laguna Seca MotoGP and beyond 7/17. 3,500mi, 12days I WILL be fine. Won't I???
