Parvathi please send me just a little of your will power. If a Krispy Kreme glazed doughnut was in my house I could not stand it. My mouth is watering just thinking about them. lolo

Glad to hear youring doing good. Welcome to band land.

How long does the gas pains last?

Just wanted to wish everyone good luck. I know your scared and nervous because I was and I believe everyone who has the band knows what your going thru. I'm very new at this was just banded on 8-8-05, but if I can help please just ask.

I was banded on Monday, I had shoulder pains also, but they are better now.

thanks everyone, It's not really pain, I went back to work Friday. Its just they don't feel normal well shot I don't know how to put it. lolollol

I had surgery Monday August 8, When can I expect the insides and outsides of my stomach to feel normal again.

Hi, I was banded on the 8th of August and I agree with you the gas pains were a lot worse than what I thought they would be. They do get better everyday.

I got my band on Monday, I guess that makes me 6 days post. I am hungry and feel like I can get full on liquids.

Ok I'm on the liquid diet for 2 weeks, I know what I can have, but how much can I have?

I went to Dr. Rumbaut and I received a folder from my doctor that states Inamed 9.75 cm Lapband (5cc balloon)<!-- / message -->

Dr. Rumbaut in Monterrey Mexico has a nice couch in your room for a guest. He thinks its best that you bring someone with you.

Your doing super!!!!!!!!!!!! Hope I can say the same in a couple of months.

Thanks everyone, I think its bad gas pain after talking to the nurse

I had surgery on Monday and the upper middle part of my chest hurts, do you have any ideal what is causing this. I haven't eaten anything only clear liquids. HELP

I love all the pictures. If your waiting for your hubby to stop doing childish things before you have kids, you can forget every having kids. I've been married 21 years, have 2 children, 1 super grandchild. My hubby is still the biggest baby I know, and don't look for him to change. lolol

Just one week from today.
