Do i get to be apart of this since my surgery was October 3, 2007?

Don't be afraid, the band has the possibility of being the best change you could have ever made. It's completely worth it. :]

Good luck and all you Octobers will be in my prayers

Mary, maybe I will see you in his office as Dr Marc Antonetti is my doc, too!!!

I just got my band yesterday. Slept mostly after surgery and today hasn't been to bad either. My throat hurts worse than the incisions. I am looking forward to great results.

Hi Sherry! I, too, was banded yesterday (10/7). I am having quite a bit if muscle soreness espeially at the port site, My belly is very bruised, too. I have no regets for getting the band. I wish that 1st fill appointment would hurry up and come!!!

Good luck to you, I will be watching for your posts to see how we compare during healing.

Well, I am 4 days post op and am on stage 2 full liquid. It is for 4 days and I can only have the broth, s/f jello and popsicles plus protein shakes. I am also still very swollen in my belly. I can't wait till that goes down!:smile2: I am looking forward to mushies! I have begun to feel some hunger mixed in with gas too. Otherwise, I am doing great!

Hello! I am scheduled to be banded on Monday, Oct. 27th. I only have 4 days to go. Any advice from anyone whose just been banded?
