Since my surgery I have lost 38 pounds I lost 10 on my six month diet So my total weight lose is 48lbs. Everybody is different. Each doctor has different diets. Good luck to you.

I stayed overnight due to the anesthesia, I had a tuff time waking up.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all!!!

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all my band family!!!

Good Luck Abby! Good Luck to all being banded this week!!!!! I am 10 days post-op and feel great. Each day gets better.

Who's your surgeon? I was banded on the 11 by Doc Enochs in Raleigh. :thumbup:

I'm feeling the same way poppyred. I just took some more hydrocodone. The pain is more around the belly button area. I had a single incision and I'm thinking maybe that is around where the doctor put the port. I can't bend because it feels like a log is in there. Other then that pain and still swollen I feel good. I have more energy. And I'm dropping weight. I go to my doctor next tuesday I will let you know what he says.

Excellent advice Karyn:thumbup:

Congrats to all peeps that have been banded as of today. Good Luck to all the peeps getting banded. I am on day 5 post-op I still have pain in the belly button area. Each day gets better. Take Care Everyone!:thumbup:

Hey Wendy, Congratulations, I am glad everthing is going good for you. I am still doing my 6 month diet for the insurance. I have been very depressed about it to. But after reading about your success, I have renewed hope for myself. Teresa

:thumbup:Congratulations.

Hey I'm glad your doing better. Congratulations. Thanks for the advice. Went today for my pre-ops one thing out of the way. Take care.

I have BCBS/NY. I am upset because I was told a month ago I was cover 100%. Then when I finally went to the doctors the same women tells me I have the weight requirements to do for the insurance, Then I will be covered 100%. She should have told me this before I feel like I've lost a whole month.
