Hello Everyone, well it's been 2 weeks since I was banded and tomorrow I get my staples removed. My blood pressure has already dropped enough to cut my medication by more than half. I've lost 21 lbs and I'm absolutely thrilled. Good luck everyone

I had my surgery on Jan 13. I'm still feeling a little sore but thankfully most of the gas is gone. The diet is pretty bland but it will get better. (I'm staying on the positive side). The area where the port is a little more sore because of scar tissue from previous surgery. I'm looking forward to when I can put this behind me and start the next part of my life. Thalia C

Thank you Barb and Sue for the encouragement!!! Barb, I'm sure you won't fail . I wish you luck for your surgery:smile:

Jan 13 is the big day! Anxious and a bit scared but very ready!:Yawn:

I am scheduled for surgery on Jan 13 . Although the pre op liquid food replacement is causing me a bit of difficulty, I look forward to the end results. I've been overweight all my life and although I have lost weight before, I've not ever been able to keep it off. I'm hoping this is the right choice for me.:Yawn:
