Congratulations. I gained a little back between my surgery and first fill, but I understand that can be pretty normal. But am glad I had it done and hopefully will see more changes in the near future. Best of luck to you.

Hey! You were banded the day I had my pre-ops. I was banded on the April 11, 2006. Lost 21lbs so far (5 prior to surgery).

Tip, stay away from high sodium chicken broth. It will make you retain Water. Drink alot of Water, at least a gallon per day.

Exercise. Since my return home on 04/14/06, the very next day I was on my bicycle and riding it around town. I walk on the treadmill too. I have no port pain, only when I am biking too hard. Don't be scared to exercise.
