I was also banded on the 12. If you want to find me I am on facebook @ Stefanie Cumberledge, the one with the cat face picture. I will try to find you ladies too by emailing you. I am curiousw to know if anyone has lost any weight yet. I know this maybe a little premature but it helps me through these "tough" times. lol.

Hello there, What a fimillar story. This was my first surgery. I was also banded on Aug 12, stayed the night, went home at 3:30 the following day. I was up 4 times during the night when I just had to get up and walk. I am still in pain at times, although it is tolerable. I quit taking the lortab d/t the taste. I have yet to just crush a tylenol for the pain. I have been walking around the house and taking short walks outside. Today was the first day I really went for a long stroll. Ouch. It hurts when I take deep breathes too. Does that happen to you? Have you lost any weight yet? Stefanie:thumbup:
