Hi, from California, I thought I would join this site for extra support! I get surgery on April 4th and am excited but nervous. It seems that in the past week I am hearing more bad stories or negative rather than positive.

i would like the lapband.but i just don't know where to start

Don't worry, I got banded 13 days ago and everything has been fine. I have had no negative experiences since my procedure.

Hi,just had my lap band done on Tuesday! Feeling pretty good for day two. Like you I am anxious to get this journey rolling ! Today I am still having a hard time getting down my protein shakes, supposed to have three a day, water and juices are going down okay, just getting real full feeling after about two thirds of a glass of shake. FIrst post op visit is on April 12th. We shall see that the Dr. says !
