I had my surgery 5 days ago. I slept on my back the last 4 days but last night I fell asleep on my stomach. Is this allowed ?

I was able to sleep on my stomach at about a week out, so I'm sure that as long as it's not uncomfortable for you, you're okay. Just wait til you lose more weight though..I'm having a very hard time sleeping on my stomach, what with hip bones and all!

Are you trying to get me jealous!!

Trust me, no one knows the hip bones are there except for me! It's only when I lay down and the loose skin/fat mushes around that they become annoying!

A Dr. Ren patient! I had originally made my appointment with her, until she stopped taking my insurance. Janeen (jla78) was banded by Dr. Ren, I hear she's wonderful.

She accepted my insurance. I have Oxford Freedom. As a matter of fact I was really surprised that it was so. easy. I went in for my initial consultation on July 8th and I had my surgery July 18 - only 10 days later! It was initially scheduled for July 25th but someone canceled for the 18th and they asked me if I was interested.

As long as you're comfortable and it's not causing you pain, you should be fine .
