Hello, my name is sueann and I got my band on August 25, I did not stay over night in the hospital. My surgery is Dr. Jon Pirrello in Charlotte, NC. I was extremely sore, but today is 4th day post op and I am feeling really good. Having a time getting all these proteins and liquids in but trying hard. Down 2.5 lbs, don't know how good that is but.......anyone out there having a lot of belching, it started last night and has continued throughout today. Feels like there is something in the middle of my chest and having a lot of belching. Not sure if it is anything to be concerned about or not. I really need this to work and I am trying very hard. Any advice would be appreciated. Good luck to you all!

Day before surgery, My surgery is schedule tomorrow 8/25, in Charlotte. My surgeon is Dr. Jon Pirrello. I have to be at the hospital at 7:30 in the morning and surgery is at 9:30. I am not too nervous yet, can't say about the AM, LOL. Keep your fingers crossed for me. Liquids until midnight, yummy, LOL IF you believe in prayer, whisper one for me. Thanks! Good luck to those that are nearing your date!

Had my pre-op visit today, now just getting meds in place and finding protein drinks that I can tolerate. Tuesday is my day. gotta be at the hospital at 7am. WIsh me luck!
