  1. I was banded on 3/20/08 and have those big tummy rumbles too. I asked the Dr about it on my post op visit and he said it was probly caused by being on a full liquid diet. We tend to swallow more air when we drink. Two more weeks of full liquid then can go to a soft diet till week six. Yay!!! MaMa Motz 280/268/160
  2. Hi I too am from IA. Thinking about surgery in Omaha at Creighton, Approved for RNY but thinking of switching to the Band. Here for more research and support, makes it hard when I only get on once a week. Diane M. from IA
  3. Im a newbie here and hope you all have some advice for me. I am approved for RNY and have a surgery date, but just found out my insurance will now approve Lap banding. Now Im not sure which surgery to have. I am leaning toward Banding because Im not sure I would like having my guts rearranged but am afraid I wont have the will power to maximize the potential of the band. I mean if I had the will power I probably wouldnt have gotten fat in the first place. Any thoughts? MaMa Motz
