Hi,

I had my band put in on the 15th. I am doing pretty good. I'm not too hungry and don't have gas!

My incisions are sore, especially the port incision. It is also surrounded in pinkish/red rather than the others, which are black and blue. I am going to call Barix in a few minutes to check on this.

Today I've had half of a milk/yogurt/banana/choc. sauce shake, half of a chicken broth and a few sips of Water with lime juice. As soon as I'm finished this post, I plan to finish the broth, drink more water and have a fudge pop.

I am excited to have found this site and to learn all about your experiences with the band.

Congrats!!! Glad your doing good! I cant wait to get banded.

Wish I could have yoghurt. My nutrition lady says no until the day 7. MMMM chicken broth.:hungry:

Congrats on your band..I hope that you'll have a speedy recovery.
