does everyone get a drain and staples?

Thank You for your response. I agree with everything you have said. I guess when I got the band, my main goal was to get to a healthy weight to have children. So I was all for it whatever the risks. It was my last hope. Now that I have my babies, I feel like I overthink and over analyze everything. I am sure I will most likely do it, just very nervous at the moment.

Hey Everyone! Not to sound too happy or ok.. but my surgery couldnt have gone any better! NO Problems, or complications. I definetly had the burpy feeling for about 3 days after the surgery but I feel almost 100%. I am ready to start excersizing again! I wish my incisions would just heal up already so I could get back to it! : ) As for diets, I also cannot believe how many different ones there are from different doctors. It blows me away! For me I was on a clear liquid diet for the first week (apple juice, Jello, broth, water) then now the secind week its all liquids... then week three mushies, but I have already added in some mashed potatoes. I drink unjury Protein mix, and I think its awesome! Im ordered it off line before I had my surgery and it tastes just like chocolate milk! The day I started my Pre-Op diet (2 weeks prior to surgery) I was 300lbs. As of yesterday I am at 270! Down 30lbs! YAY Hope everyone else is doing well and cant wait to see how this all turns out! Only time will tell! Good Luck too all! : )
