Hi, everyone. I just got my band on Tuesday, 8/21. It was a birthday present to myself-I turned 40 on Monday, Aug. 20th. I just joined this group this morning.

I hope to get a lot of support from the group and to be a source of supoort for the other members, too.

Good luck with everyone's surgery and recovery.

Jen

Banded Aug 23 and doing great. Walking, sipping, taking pain meds...all is good. If a big baby like me can make it through this...anyone can! This was my first surgery and I was terrified and I am happy to say the experience was not EVEN a fraction as bad as I thought it would be. All went very well and I'd do it again in an instant. We'll see what tomorrow brings!?!

Probably be a few potholes, dead skunks, blown out tires, etc..just steer safely around them and do the best you can to keep the rubber on the road. It will be an interesting ride for sure! ;)

I feel like I could have some today but I am only on day 3 not supposed to have it until day 4. I did have some applesauce yesterday so I could possibly go to the bathroom. It was successful. LOL I am glad I had the surgery but had some food regret yesterday. I need to think that food is fuel....I'll get there.:confused:

I'm on full liquids for 2 weeks, then 2 weeks mushies, 2 weeks soft foods, then gradual introduce reg food one at a time. My clinic is very conservative that way. It's going to be a rough, bumpy ride and the road is curvy and hilly (can you tell I just LOVE the road/wls association?!)

Did I mention there's NO SHOULDER on this road.

Okay, time to say good night. :notagree

I have lost 19 lbs. since starting pre surgery diet & surgery and have about 60 lbs more to go but am very excited to have lost this. i am older also at age 54 but feel it's more reason to do now for better health in future.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
