Tucson people?

Does anyone in Tucson want to have a LapBandTalk meeting or anything?

Also, does anyone know when and/or where some support groups are?

Thanks!!

Just checking in and seeing how everyone is doing. Waiting to hear from the dr regarding blood tests and should be going back in about a month to follow up and see how I am doing. I refuse to get on a scale until then. Again hoping that all is going well. I do feel the difference since the 1/2 cc fill so I guess that is a good thing.

I'm doing good. Just had my hiatal hernia and band repositioning surgery yesterday. Just chilling out and healing. Avoiding the scale for a few days until all the IV fluids leave my body. Haha.

Hope you feeling better real soon. I totally understand avoiding the scale until all the fluids leave. I remember after the surgery I ended up weighing more then when I first went in and I was really really upset about that. I don't recall the dr at that time telling me that would happen..

Feeling even better today. Until I had a sneezing fit. OUCH!! Lol.

No hunger, no desire to eat. Forcing liquids down. I love this no hunger. Wish it would last forever. I have pictures from my surgery on my blog. My surgeon made copies for me. Pretty cool.

Glad to hear you are feeling better,,,, I know what you mean about the pain from sneezing... it is the worst...

I am doing really well. Today I feel almost back to normal (just slight pain when I take a deep breath now). Finally dropping more weight again too... only 3 pounds from twoderville. Woot!

That is great!! I was thinking about you nonstop and wondering when you were having your surgery and how things went. Glad to hear it went well and seems your doing good! Im so happy for you. =-) We'll have to hang once your feeling a bit better.
