    What's Important

    Losing the weight and getting healthy
  5. I've been banded since March 2009. I lost over 80 lbs and you know I've had some of the most negative comments ever, going from a size 16/18 to a 0/2. When I got banded I knew the support for my decision would lay squarely on me and any thing else was a plus. My husband and children are the only ones who know I'm banded. Why because like many of you, my extended family and friends, which should be supportive, were not. :-(. I'm happy that I made the decision and battle everyday to remain ; this truth in and of itself keeps me focused on me and not concerned about what others are saying. I really love my family and friends but I loved my life more and my health was what mattered. Stay encouraged and don't look for others accolades because they won't wholeheartedly come as you might think. Do what you are doing for you and remember why you are doing it. Blessing to you all.

    Constant right side pain

    I just had my band placed on Monday. It was not so bad, however, out of all the area where I was cut, there is a pain where the port is located. This is the only area that hurts. When I touch where the port is, it is very tender. To help relieve the pain, I have place an ace bandage around my tummy. It really helps and I am able to get up and down with out actually pressing in on the port area. Is this normal in the beginning stages of post-op or should I be concerned something may be wrong. I go to the doctor on Friday. Thanks for any responses.
