How soon did you start to lose weight after surgery?
ddrag replied to Thin_thoughts82's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hey Lorraine, I have the same questions as you do. I guess we were banded the same day! Congrats!!! I went in for post-op last Tues. and had lost a few pounds. Today I feel like I am carrying a bowling ball because my stomach is so hard. I am sure hoping this feeling goes away soon. Hopefully we will get some answers as to when we start losing weight. I have read so many posts and it seems like everyone has different experiences. So good luck, lets support each other!!! Where do you live? I am in Monrovia,CA. Dena :smile: -
Post Surgery Questions- 48hrs out

Hi all, Thanks for all these tips. I am being banded on Friday so I'm just looking for some helpful advice. Thanks again! Dena -
Hi Aromer55,
My name is Dena. I just noticed that you were banded by Dr. Madan in Beverly Hills. He will be performing my surgery this Friday. I'm a little nervous... Would you mind if I asked you a couple questions? Did you like Dr. Madan? Did the B.H.Surgery Center set you up with a proper diet plan and follow up? I just am worried that I may not get the needed support afterwards... It seems like they are swamped with patients. Thanks for your time!

Hi Ellen,
I am new to this website and have been reading everyone ones posts. I will be banded on July 9th in Marina Del Rey. I am looking for a support group in Monrovia/Pasadena area. The closest I found was Bubank. Can I attend the Burbank meetings? I would love to meet others and share stories.
Thanks, ddrag
