Well everyone. I forgot to introduce myself when I first started using this site. I guess I will do my introduction now! My name is Nicki, I am 26 years old from Arkansas and was recently banded on August 12th. So far I have had a bit of a journey but it is getting better each day. NIGHTMARE!!! OH MY! I had my surgery August 12th, then on August 16th I was dry heaving and throwing up everytime I would take a sip of water. We feared something had gone wrong and by the time I was re-admitted to the hospital on August 18th I was dehydrated. I stayed overnight to get rehydrated and had a bunch of tests done, everything with the band was fine and come to find out.. It was terrible timing for this STOMACH BUG to inhabit my body!! I was down for a while but now I am feeling much better and on my road to recovery and success. I have lost 21 pounds since August 8th!!! I am very excited about my lapband now but honestly at this moment I am becoming hungrier and hungrier!
