i use a sport bra. it was great.

i go in for check up on 8-13 dr said if everything looks good i have lose at least 6 pds they do a fill.

i use walmart brand chewables compare to flintstones .

i was suppose to be on clear lq for 2 weeks but when i went in dr seen i was handling my lq ok not throwing up and not in much pain. he said i move to full lq and very soft food. they do it on a case by case because everyone heals diffrent.

all dr r diffrent my dr ran a bunch of test i was 340 told me i had to drop 30 pds before surgury. to help my liver go down in size. i know there people about 400 pds he made lose 40 pds i think he to see if how willing we were!

mine was 8 weeks i had to lose 30 pds before he do it.my insurance cover it.

the band doesnt do all the work you have to do the protein first thats what helps i lost 15 pds before the band and ive lost 7lbs the first week of having the band i cant wait till i start getting fills and actually eating real food besides liquids

i had this too they redid my blood test about 3 weeks later it was fine good luck

i had my surgery i dont remember anything after i got on the table till i woke up what hurts the most is the port area i have five incisions all with staples cant go to work till sat and i get the staples out tues am swollen alot how long does it take to go down and the pain to go away

just got home very sore not so much gassy yet. they had to repair a hernia and also remove lots of scar tissue. they give me meds in the hospital but sent me home when nothing. still in pain ugh.
