Just wanted to wish all those having surgery tomorrow good luck. :redface:I am already praying for you guys. I start my Akins diet on Tuesday.

Can't wait to hear how everybody does. God Bless!!:wink2:

I am home from surgery and doing well! I was scheduled for 1pm but think I went in shortly after 12. I was home at 7pm. I'm a little sore, the description people get of doing 1000 situps sounds about right. I'm pretty dopey right now, will tell more about it tomorrow or so!! Thanks for the good thoughts. I am so glad it's over!! Oh and the smaller band was too small so he put a larger one on with a 4cc fill already, does that make sense? Also he found a small hiatal hernia that he repaired, not sure what that is so am going to go try googling it now.

So glad you are good and home. We 6/6 guys go tomorrow...Yickes! Cant believe its here. It comforts me knowing that your okay. I hope I do as well. Kinda jittery

Glad to hear you are home and doing well. Just keep telling yourself that the soreness, tiredness or whatever is going on is temporary and soon you will be feeling great and having lots of energy.I am 4 days post op and I am still waiting for the energy part lol. Hang in there and get all the rest you need.

June 9th for me, I went from thrilled to nervous:thumbup:..... But I must remember "Keep you eye on the prize"

I'm new to this site, but I am thrilled to see all the post and support on here. At first you think your all alone and how am I gonna get through this, but thank god for this site.... Best wishes to all and God Bless!!

Good luck to those being banded today.

I was banded yesterday and oh what a difference a day makes! I feel almost normal today. A little pain but not much. The hardest part is drinking every 15 min. and getting in enough protein in 1 oz of a drink of protein every hour. I tried upping that to 2 oz but it made me nauseous. I slept good last night in my bed, no recliner and was even able to sleep on my sides. My hubby would stand at the side of the bed and hold his arm out real stiff. I would hold on and he'd gradually pull me up or let me down to lie down, as the hardest part was getting in and out of bed. I peeked at the scale this morning and I'M UP 8 LBS SINCE SURGERY!!! What's up with that? The gas and IV's they pump into you? Oh I've had hardly no gas pain, for sure no shoulder pain!! YAHOO!!!!

Hi I am getting mine on june 20!

Please add me to June 25th.

I had given up hope that I would get approved in time to be a Jazzy June - but here I am!

Huggie Bear - every time I see one of your posts I do a double-take. We look very much alike, OK maybe when I was younger.:thumbup: Possibly it is the hair - similar cut and color. You are gorgeous!

Postop Update. I had my surgery at 7am this morning. It took 45 minutes because Dr Kramer is getting certified with the REALIZE band by Dr. Ponce from Erlanger in Chattanooga, TN. I spend two hours in recovery and was ready to go home by 12:30pm...but they wanted to give me a second dose of antibiotic (Ancef) eight hours after the preop at 6:30...Luckily I talked them into giving it to me at 2:30pm and left at 3pm!

Pain..not that bad. Like most folks have said...just sore. My throat my head bothered me more from the anesthesia than anything. They must have catherized me during the procedure because it stung at bit when I went to the bathroom the first couple of times. Resting at home with a little Lortab elixir. I have heeded a lot of the GREAT advice on this board and sipped some warm tea for my throat and to avoid spasms and walked out in my yard about every hour. I have a little pain between my shoulderblades, but I'm not sure if it's gas pains or simply pain from laying most of the day.

CathyChatts...Where are you? She was right after me this morning! I got mine first...:thumbup:. Hope you are doing well.

Thanks for all of the great advice and support from you guys on this site. And a BIG THANK YOU for your prayers. I'll do my part!:tongue2:
