Hi everyone,

well i'm finally banded, had a bit of a rough time & had to be re-addmitted, for dehydration, and not keeping on top of my pain meds, anyway 4 days post op, and feeling much better, + 11lbs down already, know this is not about weight loss at the moment, and is a time for getting better, but thought i'd hop on the scales this morning anyway!!

wishing you all the very best.

Take care

Congrats Toots2. Keep us posted on your progress. I'll be goining you later this month.

Toots2,

Welcome to the family. I had to keep checking the scale too, so dont feel alone there. Congrats and keep healing. I am only 11 days out but feel much better.

Hey Toots2,

Hang in there, this forum isn awesome! So much so that I can't stop reading it. I bet I was here 6 hr straight yesterday and here I have already started again today. My band date isn't until Sept 28 and I start my pre op liguid Sept 14 but I have found invaluable information and tips just from reading this amazing board.

I have read where people have just breezed through their surgeries and some who have really had a rough time. You are definitely have a rough time right now but we will all pray that it will be over soon and each day will begin to see you feeling better and stronger and ready to lose those extra pounds and get healthy!

Keep reading and posting and let us all know how you are doing. I know I will esp keep reading and counting down until I too become a bandster!

Blessings,

Docsdeb
