Hello fello Ohio people! I was banded yesterday at Jewish Hospital in Cincinnati, by Dr. Trace Curry.:clap2:

I'm feeling really well, just some discomfort. But that's why they have meds, isn't it!

Anyway.. time to walk and drink.. walk and drink...:flock::flock:

Mary

Good to hear your doing well!!!!!

I haven't been banded yet but hope to in the new year if ins. approve me. I can't get enough of knowledge from these threds. I find myself on here several times a day. Good luck on your journey.

Congratulations! Yes you are right that is what meds are for. Along with the walking and drinking!

CONGRATS JAZZYWOMAN!! I'm still the app/waiting mode.

jazzy--congratulations!!

2008 is going to be a lot of fun for you!! you are going to be feeling and looking so much better than you did in 2007.

Congrats !! what a wonderful way to start off 2008. keep us posted on your loss

Congrats again JazzyWoman.....hope things are still going well for you. I started the process for lap band surgery. I am on a 6 month supervised diet and am attending the seminar on Feb 11th at St Lukes Hospital in Maumee,Ohio. I am excited to do this and hope I get through the process without alot of road blocks.

I'm down 20 pounds!!! Yay!

My butt isn't as big, nor are my legs.. and my jeans are really baggy!!! I just got the go ahead from my dr to start exercising, so I'm gonna get that going. I also got my first fill, and it's not as restrictive as I had hoped, but I go again in 2 weeks.

Keep working Volemt23!! It is all worth it... the process is harder than the actual surgery.

Thanks so much for the support. I am a little nervous after reading so many different things on here and other websites. Is there one particular site or whatever you stuck with to learn more about surgery and stuff. Just was wondering. I also joined the obesityhelp.com site. Seems to be more local people on there,but still trying to figure that site out. I really enjoy this one,but find myself getting lost easily and confused.I am so happy for you that things are going good. I will keep continuing to keep you in my prayers.
