Hello everyone. Like most of you, I have not told everyone about my surgery. I get a lot of spam requests on Facebook, so if you wouldn't mind clicking the add a personal message when you click the friend request button and just type in Lapband there so I know who you are...I'll do the same when I'm requesting you all. I think this is a great idea. :confused: akarthas@gmail.com

I have pain or discomfort at my port site whenever I exercise. I mentioned it at my last fill, they felt where my port is and my surgeon that it's not uncommon, and for me nothing to be worried about...In my case my port was attached to my abdominal wall. I don't know if this is the case with you, but I thought I'd share. Good luck.

Hi Humming Bird, I have a 10cc band and have great restriction.

Hello everyone, happy holidays! I was banded on July 9th, currently have 7.7cc in my band and have now lost 77 pounds. I am absolutely thrilled with my results and so very happy I made this decision.

So sorry to hear about your kidney stones, I know what you're going through. I get them as well. Hope you're feeling better.

Hi, like it has been suggested I would check with your doctor... But my surgeon insists on a mile a day beginning the day of surgery. I began my 20 laps around the nurses station just a few hours after I arrived to my room from post-op recovery. I am now up to at least 3 miles a day (surgery was 7/9). Best of luck to you!

Best of luck to everyone who is having surgery tomorrow. My surgery (scheduled for tomorrow, 7/7) was cancelled and tentatively rescheduled for Thursday.

Thanks so much! Best of luck to you too.

Hello everyone, I'm new to this site and very happy to see that there is a forum dedicated to July surgeries. I'm scheduled for surgery on July 7th (my mom's birthday too so it's already a great day). I began my 2 week pre-op liquid diet on 6/23. One week down and one to go.

My date is July 7th. :tongue2:
