I everyone. This is an update for my progress. I just had my banding yesterday and I'm really sore. The Dr. Told me I had a hernia. He fixed it for me while he was in there.

I am so glad I did this, now I just gotta get used to this new diet. I'm on a clear liquid diet for a few days. I'm in Jacksonville so if anyone is close by don't hesitate to hit me up. Thank you in advance for any advice any of the people reading this want to offer.

I'm just sending best wishes. Some of the worst days are coming but some of the best too. I'm impressed you sound so good. Take care of yourself!! And just know if things get bad it gets better after a few days- but maybe for you it'll be easy peasy. HOPE SO!!

Good to hear everything went well. Wishing you a smooth recovery!

A speedy recovery for you. Walk and walk to make sure you get rid of the gas.

Welcome to "Bandland".

I found walking helped a heating pad.

I was banded 7/23/12 and I must say each day is better than the last day. Praying for all those banded and scheduled to get banded for a speedy recover and success on our journeys.
