Banded yesterday



Recommended Posts

Hello all,

I'm all banded and home from the hospital. My surgery went very well, but when the Dr got in there he found what he described as a very large Hiatal Hernia, so he took care of that while he was in there. I am in a fair amount of pain, But nothing out of the ordinary. I hope the rest of you Banded on the 14th made out well. Looking forward to hearing about your experiences.

Hello,

I was also banded yesterday at 7:15 am. It went pretty well. The only pain I have is in my stomach...just feels like sore muscles (thank god for the heating pad). So the hardest thing is getting out of the recliner, other than that I feel pretty good so far. I am not hungry, and I am able to fluids normal with no problems.

Good Luck to you and all the other January Bandsters:biggrin:

I was banded yesterday as well and still in a lot of pain. It is somewhat better than last night and I am sure it will be better tomorrow.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
