I was banded in April and had lost 23 lbs. I never felt any restriction. Only to find out that I had a whole in my tubing. Had it replaced in Oct and now am losing very sloooow. I have the small band that holds 4cc. I am almost to my max. I am hoping for the best. You should have your Dr. find out if you indeed have a leak, and how is it going to be fixed.

Lisa, was day 7 any easier, It was for me, one week to go , we can make it!! maria

DaisyMay I have been on the 2 week pre-op diet also, found day 5 and 6 to be tough. Trying to stay positive. Even made myself a list on why I want the band. It helped. Next week is our new birthday. April 29th. Good Luck to you !!! maria

welcome jayme, I am also to be banded the 29th. Are you on a pre-op diet. I have survived day 3 of mine. They day will be here before you know it. I can't wait!!! maria
