Mine is right about at the belly button.

I was banded on 6-25-09 and so far have been weak and very tired. It seems I just get up and take my medicine, try to force a protein drink down. I hate all of them. I want to give it all up and drink whatever I want. But I know I can't do that. I then usually walk about a 1/2 mile on the treadmill and then drink some more water. Then I take my bath and try to get cleaned up. I have no energy. Everything I drink goes right through me, a whole lot like it went down. I don't have any desire to see anybody or do anything. I am so frustrated and now it is time to start it all over again this afternoon. Is everybody this tired?

I'm having my surgery in Louisville on June 25th at Norton's with Dr. Jorge Rodriquez. Who is your surgeon?

I am having surgery June 25th. My doctor only requires clear liquid diet the day before surgery. After reading all the people talking about a preop diet, I am going to try to do a 2 week preop liquid diet similar to what I will be on when I can have full liquids after the surgery. If it means less pain after surgery, I am all for it.

My surgery is set for June 25th in Louisville, KY My name is Brenda. I haven't been given a pre-op diet. I would like to hear more about what diets people have been given. My name is Breanne. My surgery is June 19th at Lahey Clinic in Burlington Massachusettts! There is a spot in the June 2009 Surgery forum where I have listed everyone who is having a June Surgery so far. I add people once I get about 1/2 dozen so I'll add you soon!

I am hoping to be a bander on March 28th if all paperwork is sent from one doctor to my surgeon. Insurance has already approved the surgery.
