Well I am a bandster now. I had surgery yesterday and I so happy to be home. The gas pains are not as bad as I expected but I am very sore. I hope things start getting better tomorrow. I am sipping on broth right now and hopefully can move to some better tasting things tomorrow. Thank you to all of you that have answered my questions along the way. To all the others that were banded yesterday....congrats....I know May 12th will be GREAT!!!!!

Yay for you and the rest of us! I'm hoping to not be feeling this way two weeks from now. Trying to read over my post-op instructions from my surgeon.

Take care and congrats!!!

Congratulations to you both .. I had a big grin to know you both are now on the other side ... Now just to heal and here ya go ...

Take care and rest and so happy to know you are good ...

Yay for both of you!

Thank you! You both will be where we are soon enough too :tongue2:

Congratulations!! I have been on clear liquids counting the day before surgery=9 Days. I had a very easy day today, but I feel weak. No real hunger. I had some depression, and with that always hunger. This time I recognized it for what it was and ignored it. It left me.

I hope you have a good and easy time with your clear liquids.
