September 10Th

I'm scheduled to have a lap band (over a previous gastric bypass 12 years ago) on Sept 10th in NY. Excited, optimistic and ready for the next steps. Have done all the tests and consultations and just waiting for clearance from my insurance.

    I'm much better today. some of the gas started to pass. I just feel that if I could get rid of this Gas I would be fine. been sipping on my water and Isopure. My mom brought me down some broth from Chicken soup and that tastes like heaven lol. Just need to get rid of the rest of this gas. I went for a walk yesteray and that helped so I plan on going for another walk later.

    Yes to the pinching. Mine is in my port area and I just figured that my body is making room for the port. If anyone else thinks some different - let me know!

    IDK... I have 6 different incisions but the worse pain is from the large one where the port is.
