  1. My doctor told me bofre the surgery about the shoulder pain. for me it was not that bad, I had it for almost four weeks, but was not that bad.
  2. I also do that, I keep small snacks with me like granola bars or cheese.
  3. That's soooo good to hear, and I can talk only about my experience, but for me this has been one of the best decisions I have made. Not only that but for me was money well spended, since in my country those procedures are not covered by insurance, I had to cover all the expenses. I hope everything's ok, with you and good luck !!!!!!!!!
  4. Actually this month will be a year now.... I have 19 pounds left to lose, I believe this will be over soon. But as I said, right now I have no people to talk about this, who could really understands. I'm very happy of the changes I have experienced during this whole process.
  5. Hi! I was just looking online for pages to find info and somehow share my experiences after my lapband surgery, since I don't know anyone who has one. I'm from the dominican Republic and currently living in Santo Domingo, and in my country this is not a very common procedure yet and there are no support groups or anything. Looking forward to share and learn from others.
