  1. Can We Eat Popcorn?

    vissmicki replied to Nathalie's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
    I can't believe what I am reading????? I am not going to fool myself into believing that I can eat or drink anything that should be restricted after going through what it takes to get a lap- band. I will not undo the progress I have made because someone else says it's no problem. (Loss of 65lbs. Date of Surgery: 11/19/2013

    I had my surgery on November 19, 2013. Surgeon had problems with the size of band to use. Small in and out Large in, but expired and out, Large in for good. Extremely sore, but with time it will pass. I am concerned about a tightness in my upper back and chest. When I straighten up I get a painful, uncomfortable feeling like the esophagus is too short. Throbs a bit for 5 seconds or so. Hope this passes soon.
