  1. I love your quote posted " you will never become who you want to be by remaining who you are..."
  2. Yes, excited to join a group for December banders. Got my band on December 4th and have lost 21 pounds, yeah!!! I took about 7 days for me to feel normal again. The next step for me is to get my stitches removed which is scheduled for Monday.
  3. I recently got banded on December 4th. I took 10 days off of work to return on the 15th however on day 7 I actually felt well enough to go back to work but it was a weekend so will wait till the orginally planned day. I understand everybody is different but there is no way I could have went back to work anymore than 5 days after surgery.

    Wow, What a week has made!! Yesterday, I finally starting feeling normal again. I am so relieved, I was beginning to wonder if it was worth it. Guess, getting on the scale changed my mind as well, I have lost 21 pounds, I can't believe it. I am so psyched!! Well, next week will begin my true journey because I have to go back to real life, meaning work. Till next time http://www.TickerFactory.com/weight-loss/wZkYv5h/"> >

    Hello all fellow-lapbanders, This is my first day post-op and first time on a blog, I recieved the band on Decmeber 4th and this morning I am in a lot of pain. Oddly, I think I have more pain in my shoulders and back then I do my stomach, is this normal? Also, standing and sitting is painful but I'll make it thru. Hope to hear from anyone. Till next time
