Hello All, I'm getting banded on 2/27 in San Francisco Bay Area. I'm very anxious and excited! Hope all goes well with everyone!

I was banded yesterday the 26th in Houston, by Dr Vuong at True Results. Those folks at True Results were very nice and were just super in making sure you were comfortable. The only real discomfort was the gas floating around on the inside of me after waking up. For that, I walked and walked and took gax-x. The cuts in my chest are very sensative, but nothing that is not tollerable. So far, everying has been good for me. I hope everyone else did ok yesterday?

Just got home from the Hospital, tired and sore but glad!!

How is everyone feeling?

Hope everyone is resting and healing.

I'm very sore and I feel like the doctor sewed my chest to my bellybutton. And don't get me started on the gas! I'm walking as much as possible and sip, sip, sipping my Water. Hope to feel better in a couple more days.

Hope all is well.

Hello all,

I have not had any pain meds today ,but have a lot of indigestion.

I feel like it's trapped inside of me and won't come out.Is that normal?

I also have no appetite and I can only eat pudding or applesauce coffe juice and water. I know I'm not getting enough protein but my doctor said to concentrateon the liquids. Take Care and cograts on everyone's progress

Hi all,

I'm doing good. Not much pain after day 2. A little uncomfortable and scars are itchy but not too bad.

Have been able to stop taking pain killers and only had a little gas pain. Best news of all is that I've already lost 6 pounds since tuesday!!! Wahoo!!

I'm still very bloated and look about 7 months pregnant but I'm sure that'll go once the swelling and gas goes!

Hi Everyone~

I was banded on Feb 26 as well. I am doing good. My incisions are still a little sore and getting itchy!:scared2: I was banded at the Institute for Advance Bariatric Hospital by Dr. wanda Kaniewski She is Wonderful. The whole staff is wonderful!:cursing: The only thing I hate and am getting tired of is the Liquid diet. I have to be on it for two more weeks, then I get to move to the mushie stage. I am so ready! I has to be on a 10 day liquid diet before surgery as well. This is the begining of my new life!!! Hope to make some new Band Firends!!!:drool:
