Feeling Great! 1 Week Post-Op = 13lbs Lighter

Finally on the other side and I'm so very happy to be here. Although I felt like I'd made a mistake the first couple of days, I now realize my band is going to be my very best friend. I love not being hungry and seeing such rapid progress when I thought I would be one of the handful of people that the band won't help - I was wrong and so happy to say that I was.

I love my band and I am already very happy I made this decision.

Good job. It's always good to be happy with your band although there are usually some ups and downs eventually. Even after 4 years I still wonder what the heck my band is doing. But I'm definitely happy it's there. Keep up the good work!

OMG...your post came at a perfect time for me...I am11 days away from getting my band. I kept thinking...what if I am one of these people on here who say it didn't work for them? What if I don't lose weight? What if I have regrets? Now....I see I have to muddle through the first week and wait for my prize!

Thanks so much for sharing your story....you motivated me....
