A month ago today I had my band put on! I couldnt have asked for a better surgery. The actual band placement was a piece of cake. I barely had any pain and my diet progression went off without a hitch. However, I developed breathing issues, which I am still dealing with. I finally went to the gym yesterday after 4 weeks, and felt great, but woke up wheezing like crazy! I go back to Pulmonary Thursday, so hopefully I can get some answers. I can't complain though! I have been on Prednisone for 3 weeks and I still managed to loose 25lbs since surgery, making my total at 48lbs!
I am so excited to be almost done with post-op and begin living my new life! Cheers to everyone!
