Fantastic...I had my surgery on 4/14/08 just two weeks ago today! I have lost 26 pounds in two weeks. Yes, 26 pounds in two weeks is for real. I lost 10 pounds prior to surger which means I am down 36 pounds total in a month! It is the best thing I ever did. I had some mild shoulder pain for week after surgery and that was all. My incisions are very tiny and already healed :wink2: Its a cake walk...enjoy!

Welcome and Good Luck!!!

Hi Snowman! Good luck tomorrow. Let us know how you are feeling.

Hi Snowman and welcome to LBT! Hope everything goes well for you today!! Post as soon as you feel up to it and keep us updated on your progress.

Welcome to LBT Snowman. As others above have said, keep us posted on how you are doing. I am still jumping through hoops and hope to be banded before the year is out. I hope you are home and recovering now. All the best to you.

Well I am up and around , but cant seem to find any way to sit or lay to get comfortable, I am sure that is normal. I have been trying to walk some so hopefully that will help me get to feeling better faster. thanks for all the support and kind wishes.

Glad everything went well for you and hope you are feeling better soon!

Welcome! I'm really new to this group, but not the band. You'll do well! Good luck!
