  1. mine is in the centre of my chest between my boobs, i can feel it there, and it feels kinda weird, but hopefully when i lose all my weight i will only have the problem of that protruding out, instead of all my rolls :thumbup:
  2. i'm not sure what the optisures like, dont mind the optifast thou, anyway, i had my operation last wednesday, and i will be going back to work tomorow (monday) I feel fine, tummys not sore at all, just a tad itchy where the tape is, I also had a cold, which has been a pain in the butt, coughing and spluttering. im not doing the greatest on the liquid diet only, but its definately curbed my appetite thats for sure.
  3. ok its called "before and after on the inside"
  4. bet you cant wait! i was lucky with dr cable, not only was he a great surgeon, it was a quick process, i saw him on the 14th aug, booked surgery for two weeks later and thats that. am loving the new banded ME how do you guys get that fancy weight loss ticker thingy?

  7. hi all i had my lap band surgery done on the Wed 3rd sept 2008 - in Tauranga New Zealand. I was first up at 8.20am and back in recovery room and semi awake about 10.30ish Nursing staff were great, i had little or no pain, Keyhole surgery left me with six little stab marks with no stitches, Dr Cable gave me wicked pictures of my puku (stomach), before he hitched the band round it, and afterwards. ewww im never going to eat fat again ugh!, Im gonna keep those pictures to look at when i want to eat some pork crackle! Was up and walking round within the first 3 hrs. And next morning, i was able to shower and go home! Ive been home 3 days now, feeling good, and looking forward to going back to work on monday. I like the idea of being able to monitor others progress on here! awesum
