Hi, I have had my band fitted 30/11 I'm feeling ok, I'm getting up and moving about is there anything I need to be aware of for the next few days/ 1st week any help will be fab!!

What were you told by the surgeon? One thing should have been not to lift things over five lbs.

Press a bed pillow firmly against your incisions to minimize the jolt of coughs, sneezes, laughs.

Best wishes.

Thanx you! My surgeon just sent me for a leak test so hopefully I can go home ????

My lapband surgery was outpatient. I remember being tired the first couple of weeks. I missed chewing until I was allowed to eat tuna, egg salad, etc. Stay away from carbs. I read about people eating noodles and mashed potatoes. That defeats what we are trying to accomplish. Good luck!

Had lapband surgery 10/12/16

Thankyou! ????
