I'm a newbie..

Y'all I've had some stuck episode already. I'm not sure how much restriction I have now but I get my first fill tomorrow. All I know is papaya emezynes are gonna be my best friend. Hope everyone is doing well.

Hi everyone EDG went well. No problems. No BSBC does not require but they ordered me one because of my bad heartburn and acid reflux that I have. So I have a hostel hernia which the surgeon will repair while he us doing the band.

That's so good to hear. I think I have been having heartburn lately. I just started getting it. Are those signs or is it if u have always had heartburn. It just came when I started eating back and gaining more weight. So happy it went well. I knew it would. How's the pre op diet going ? Any loss?

Yes, heartburn is a sign. Not just your regular every day heart burn either. With in the last 5 years its been horrible. Some night I can't sleep cause it feels like its coming thorough my throat. I'm just glad I know so they can know and the doctor won't have a surprise waiting on him.

Preop fine down 5. I started early

Hi, I'm a newbi. Just getting final tests then paperwork may be submitted to insurance for approval. Already been pre-approved, so it's just paperwork. Expect to have the band in August or so.

Do folks meet in person or just online? Would like to find a local group of others to hang out with from time to time so that I don't fall back into bad eating habits with current friends.

The hospital call me yesterday to pre register me. Woohoo and today I officially start the 2 week preop diet. I started early though and lost a few to keep the stress off. This to me I think is going to be the real challenge. Lol
