I just got banded on the 22nd, and I am doing great! I am now tolerating milk in very limited quantities and jello in very limited quantities. I have no desire to eat solid foods with the way my tummy feels, the pain isn't horrific, it is quite tame with tylenol & codeine, but I feel bloated. I want to be a support to anyone who is getting banded! I had family & friends support and I know not everyone does, and it hurts to think of someone going through this with a disapproving family member or best friend! So if anyone needs a friend, add me.
