2 years has passed since you registered at LapBandTalk! Happy 2nd Anniversary Dawni!

Hey girl! How ya feeling??

Hi where do you work? I am a stylist too. When did you get your band?

good job on the 21 lbs . i lost 10 lbs on the 10 day fast and nothing since. keep going girl your awsome .

I'm doing great!!! oh my! sounds like you had quiet a surgery experience! I'm glad you are feeling better though! Def day 3 was my worst day so I'm glad you are almost passed that! My incesions are a little sore but they are so itchy now! my regular doctor told me today my body is just ready to be rid of the staples that come out Wed! I can't wait. So have you lost alot from your 10 day diet? I started the calorie diet July 6th and as of today I'm down 21 lbs. Wooo hooo! Who knew starving yourself really does work? lol Anyway I'm glad you are home and recovering now, the worst is behind you for sure! you probably aren't losing anything as you are swollen yet, weight yourself about day 7..you'll be pleasantly surprised I'm sure! Keep it up trooper! We can do this

How are you?

Well 3 days out from surgery and I am feeling pretty good . I am still sore. The day of surgery was a whirl wind. came out of surgery feeloing like i vould not breath and was paniced, They imediatly started running test ekg stuff like that, They found that gas got stuck in my diafram and made it hard to breath they keep me pver night to be safe. Unfortantly thru all thatI had some problems urinating so I was sent home with a cathiter. Lots of pain the first and second day but feeling better to day,(By the way the cathiter thing only lasted one day. no fun) My only concern is I ahvent lost weight for 4 days.

Good to hear you are doing well. I will be leaving for the hospital in a hour. I am so excited. I wll keep you posted.

Hey! Yea surgery was super easy from what I kept hearing The dr said "It was a peice of cake" at that point, I wanted to suggest another "catch phrase" as he is..in fact a bariatric surgeon lol. I'm ok, its sore as I expected it to be but I do not have any of the "Gas pain" everyone speaks of. I'm not very hungry between the incesions and the pain pills but I do sleep alot and I think thats curtial. SoI was able to sleepin my bed today which was much better. Its only my 3rd day out but inesions look good and most of the swelling has gone down so I'm thinkin i'll be turning the corner here very soon. The surgery/recovery time right after is easy, they keep you pretty well under control in the pain dept. Best of luck to you! You will be just fine!

Thanks. I needed that and I hope I can stay on track.

hope you are feeling good.. The nerves are starting to get to me alittle my surgery is on friday so i know where you are at. keep me posted on your progress.
