I got one too, and its a site sponsored by inamed so I think it could be a good resource. If you have previously gone to the inamed website and registered, that's how they got your e mail. And you can use your user name and password from the inamed registration to log onto the site.

The website is www.lap-band.com

I got it too because I registered for the original site. I like it, there are some great resources there. I have also participated in surveys for them. If you did the survey last year that paid $75 they might have recieved your email from that. I registered when I was fighting my insurance and got a list of surgeons that were participating in my area. Inamed also helped me fight the insurance company and win. I like the site and refer people there all the time. If I tell someone about the band that is the first site I offer, this is the second. I would rather give them basic and accurate information and let them decide if the band is right for them and at the same time they have a great resouce of banded people here. I carry a stack of my surgeons cards with both sites written on the back. I hav given out 100 cards or more. I am sure that it has helped loads of people. ~Mandy

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
