CarolinaGirl recently was banded with plication. I'll ask her to respond to this thread.

hi rand

i was banded on the 6th and am recovering well. i am sure you are also.

what part are you tired of? trust me, we all have been there.

just stay on the liquids and do what the dr says. remember you are so still just outta surgery that you are healing now. do not worry about (losing/gaining). once you are off the liquids, the mushies/real soft foods come along and you will feel more human again (i know i did and drove ms jean batty).

i can feel my plication only because at around 1/2 to 3/4 cup of what i am eating i am full ---which is what it is suppose to do. the band is not filled yet and i may get a smidge in august at my 2nd month follow up.

right now you just need to rest and finish up with the dr orders.

how much longer on the liquids?

Lol I'm just tired of the same old liquids but I'm hanging in there I go to the doctor Thursday I am very excited about this also I'm in Charlotte nc are you near by

raleigh nc at your service darling. make a list of questions you want to ask and cover any qualms you have or dont have. just relax and go at your pace. this is YOU. do not ponder about bobby joe curly joe moe's weight loss. this is your pace. sf pop sicles saved me as well as my Protein shakes. the worst is nearly over ............trust me.

I was also banded on the 6th w plication..

welcome and hello banded sister of mine

Hi and thank you
