I am officially a Bandster!! I had my surgery on Thursday. He took my gallbladder out also. I had over 30 stones in there! He gave us 3 of them, they are funny lookin. I am thinking about gettin some google eyes and some of that craft pipe cleaner and make a little bug out of them hehe. Think I can sell em on ebay? LOL

I am feeling great. I am glad its over. Now I can just heal and enjoy my band.

Great news, Jen!! Glad to hear all went well. Good thing you got the gallbladder at the same time. For me it was 6 weeks AFTER my SECOND banding.

Congrats Jen!!! Thanks for letting us know how it went and glad your well on your way to recovery! Welcome to bandland!!! Teresa

Congrats Jenn! My surgeon took my bad gallbladder out when I was banded, too. You should start feeling better right away, just getting that nasty thing out of your body. And you got your band! Hope you continue to recover smoothly.

Congrats Jen. It must be a great feeling to have the surgery over with. Have a great recovery!!

Way to go Jen. Hope you're feeling as well as your post indicates. I received my band on Monday and I'm still fighting the shoulder gas pain. It goes and comes, but when it's on, I get quizzy on the tummy. My first two days were better than my day 3 and 4, but today has been very good. Oh yea, on my day 4, I was down 13.5 lbs. I'm sure most of it's Fluid, but it's still good to see those digital number drop. I had to do a double take, even got off the scales and back on to make sure I didn't mess up.

Take care of yourself.

Ccongratulations, Jenn! Good luck with your recovery.

Congrats on your surgeries. Hope u have a quick recovery.Have a great holiday!
