Just banded Monday

I just found out about this site after I had been banded on monday!

Before everything I weighed 280...

pre op I got down to 271

and Right now only 3 days after surgery im down another 4 lbs and im at 267

This is really exciting!

I'm healing fine, I can still feel myself recovering and not being as energetic as before surgery, but im slowly making my way back towards normal activity.

Congrats on getting your band! I'm scheduled tomorrow morning at 8am - very scared but also excited. I'm in Cincy as well - with Dr. Curry. Who did your surgery? Any advice now that you're a few days in?

:welcome2: BandedinCincy,

I was also banded in Cincinnati, but it has been about 9 weeks ago. It sounds as though things have gone well for you so far. My surgeon was Dr. George Kerlakian at Good Sam. I had my second fill 6 days ago. Good luck and welcome to Bandland!

A New Me--

I posted before I saw your post. Welcome to you as well! Dr. Curry has a terrific reputation so you're in great hands. Tell us how it went.

I had doctor fegalman who does surgery through the Jewish Hospital in kenwood, oh and its a few days later and im already down more to 262!

8 lbs in only a week :-)

Banded in Cincy,

That is incredible! I (and many others) came home from the hospital 10 pounds heavier because of all the extra fluids from the IV's. Those 10 pounds stayed with me for 8 days!
