I have been banded for 3 months now. Love it!!! Would done it over again without thinking! I was little gassy after surgery but not in pain. Had gallbladder out the week before and that was worse than lapband surgery. And honestly that wasn't bad at all! Good luck!

Would do it over again in an heartbeat!!!!

I am 5 days post op..gas is almost going! Gas was easier with lapband than gallbladder surgery! I just hope I am getting in enough water and protein! Hope it gets better for you!

Tomorrow is my BIG day!!!!! Getting nervous and excited!!!

Surgery is Dec 2nd!!! Had gallbladder out 10/30/09! Dr said lapband surgery is easier!

Had my gallbladder out in preparation for lapband! Gallbladder surgery was very easy so hopefully lapband surgery will be smooth sailing!

I am still having fears!!!! How does it feel when you take that first sip after surgery? I am so afraid of choking and getting things stuck?
