I just wanted to start a March group. My surgery date is March 2nd.

Thank you, thank you thank you. Got up again and started bleeding again and almost fainted, so back to bed. But I feel good and actually been avoiding the happy button for a bit.

question for you! I am having some pain at my port site. Can feel it under my skin--feels like a small egg! lol! Was planning to start walking tonight, but it causes pain when I move. Also hurts to laugh, sneeze, cough, or lie down with my legs out straight!! Anyone else experiencing this?

I was banded on march 13th and my port pain was there until just this past Saturday whe I was finally able to walk. So sorry I'm not sure when you were banded but it will pass.

Good luck tomorrow' date=' hope your daughter feels better. Will be praying for you, see you on the other side soon. Wishing you a speedy recovery.[/quote']

good luck girl

Hi all. I've been missing for a bit & wow! Congrats to everyone who has been banded & goodluck for those yet to go.

I was banded 5th march & doing beautifully. Lost 6kg so far. I am wrapped. I have my first fill tomorrow & am a bit nervous. I am still on mushies. I cannot wait to dig my teeth into something that's for sure.

I hope everyone is recovering well. Everyday just gets better and better. :-)

Strange question...does anyone else get this? In the morning my port is very pronounced under

My skin. If I was wearing a tight shirt or a bathing suit I am sure you would see it. In the afternoon it is way less noticeable. Am I crazy?

Welcome back! Glad you're doing well. Mushies are sounding so good, I'm still liquids with 3 weeks left to go. My surgery was just a week ago on the 22nd and down a total of 23 lbs and doing well.

Violet I can't even tell for sure where my port is??!! So I don't have that problem,lol

Maybe yours just isn't settled in yet? Call your doctors nurse, she can give you an explanation probably. Hope you're doing well. Deb

Thanks Deb! I called and she seemed surprised!! I am waiting on a call back from the surgeon. I will try to take a pic of it tomorrow morning!!! So bizarre!

Hi violet,

Im not sure when you were banded, but I can see mine and feel it. It about the size half an egg. But Since I was just banded 10 days ago, I was assuming it was normal.

Hi All, Banded March 21. My doc advises Clear Liquids. For 2 weeks post-op, so I'm becoming quite the broth conissour. Went to MD's office today. Staples out and DOWN 18 lbs. Yeah.

Wish everyone hear the best of luck!

Good luck I have my first fill tomorrow and I'm scared and nervous too. Congrats on the weight lost.

How long does this pain last
