I did not even do a pre-op diet so i do not think it will hurt. Why not call doctor and ask? Best of luck to you. Donna

I also have a bump, but it is going down.

Your user name makes me worry for you. There is help out there. Please do not lose hope. If you decide on the band please know that you can still eat. Just not as much. Best of luck. Why not choose life? Donna

Found it thanks Donna

I did not have to do a pre-op diet. Thank God!!! It really sounds hard. I`ve lost 17 pounds in 17 days since surgery. Donna

Hi I traveled from Indiana to Mexico and back alone. No problems except getting stranded at Atlanta airport overnight and half the next day coming home. Met a lot of nice people while stranded and did ok. Rest of the trip was uneventful. I do not think you will have any problem. Donna Good Luck !!!!!

Hi I was banded July the 27th in Mexico. I have lost 12 pounds so far. I go to the gym almost every day and walk for 30 minutes on the treadmill. I do not have much in the way of restriction, but i am not really very hungry. I think i will schedule my first fill for Aug. 30th if i can. Good luck to you . Donna
