Please share your recovery story as the days progress.

CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

pics please!

Yes please post your pics as well as your thoughts on the recovery process. I'm scheduled for October 9th and praying that I'll be well enough to go back to work the 22nd. It is a desk job but the doc is trying to tell me to take a month off. How does he think I'm paying for this?

Can you guys tell me how to add pictures I have them saved on my pc and i thought I added them to the gallery but when I go there, no pics. help!! lol Thanks

I've been trying to add photos to the gallery with no success as well. So I can't be much help there. However in the "Go Advanced" option of responding to this thread you can click on the "Manage Attachments" button down a ways below the smileys in the Additional Options Section.

Note: When you add photos to a thread it isn't a bad idea to hit the "Preview Post" before you actually submit the message just to make sure the pics aren't too large for the screen. If they are too large to see on the screen easily then go to your pictures folder where the photo is saved right click on the file, select "Open With" then "Microsoft Photo Editor". In the Microsoft Photo Editor Select "Image" then "Resize" and change the size to something smaller. After you have done that resave the file (with or without a new name) then go back to the Lapband window and re-attach the photo.

It's not as hard as it sounds. Most of the time the pics are small enough you don't have to resize them. Feel free to send me a PM if you still have troubles.

Congrats on your TT . I am a nurse in a doctors office and I was back at work in 2 weeks

As to resize the pics try to right click on the pic in your picture editor. It will show you sizes I chose the mid size email and it was the perfect size try that and see . i want to se pics too.
