Just follow the surgeon's directions and you won't have any problems. Buy all your broths,SF posicles,nonfat greek plain yogurt(Fresh n Easy), SF jello(no fruit) and have plenty of Protein shakes. It's better to have a weeks worth of supplies ready and have a working heating pad (shoulder area pain from gas).

I was Banded Aug 6, 2012.

Best Wishes and Good Luck. Keep us posted.

I have been doing great!. It's already been a long week since my date. I can't believe it's over with surgery and I get to use the tool. After surgery don't get discourage if you don't lose much weight. Remember there's NO fill in yet. And recovery slows your body down somewhat. Take your pain meds, they are important to sleep well and get rest. If you're able to take some days off, I recommend it. Aug 20 is right around the corner. I go to my first post-surgery doctor appt on Aug 21. Waiting too see how I am. Hugs

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
