just home. surgery went well, first for this dr. and for this surgical center. Very awsome. I was only patient all day and night. first rate care. not much pain, just gas. cant have anything chewable and I bought gas x chew tabs. hubby at store looking for liquid and getting rx filled. liquid lortab. Did lortab keep anyone else awake?

Other than gas feel good. first time ever felt swallowing and into stomach. wierd feeling.

liquids for another week, and then appt. on Tues to see if loving to thicker liquids.

Good luck upcoming bandsters. hope your banding happens as well as mine. Thanks for all the advice.

Take me off the May list. Had to cancel d/t ins problems We are summiting for preauthorization First the said we did not have to. Today I was Informed we Dh and myself did not meet the criteria for just covering it. When they say 12 consecutive months they mean the past 12 months. from today backward. With documented proof weighing in at the Dr office on a diet don't count if you were not on a RX for weight loss for the last 12 months. Same with WWetc. what you did in 2001 or 2002 don't count. Soooooo. They said summit it again for peauthorization suggested trying an RX in the mean time. Will take 2-4 months, to get a decision

I am May 12th so please add me to the list. I had re-scheduled from April 21 due to my father-in-laws unfortunate death. I am so excited but really nervous!!!!!

Shamrock....I am so sorry. I know how sad you must be to cancel and have any kind of set back. It will all work out...keep your chin up!!!

Yipee - I'm scheduled for May 26th. Of course I just had my initial consult. Now I have to meet with the dietician and my pcp on Friday. Get an EKG, meet with surgeon and get psych eval on Monday. Oops, then remember to go to Ecuador for vacation on Tuesday. And I'm out of town right now.

I love a busy life. And busy I will be when my feet don't kill me anymore, clothes are more comfortable....
