Hello Everyone!

My name is Brandy and I just got banded on Tuesday, November 4th, a historic day for me on two levels with the outcome of the presidential election and with my new start on life! I'm already noticing the changes and can hardly wait to see what my new future holds! Looking forward to chatting with you all. :thumbup:

Hi Brandy! Welcome to LBT and congratulations on getting banded. We look forward to getting to know you too.

Hey there, good deal. I was banded on the 3rd and I live in Overland Park..How is your healing going?

My healing is going pretty well! First few days were painful, nauseating but no vomiting (YAY!). Now, my staples are pulling and that hurts but they come out tomorrow and I can't wait. It amazes me how quickly I've noticed it takes me to finish food now! In the course of one day I've managed to eat 1 can of tomato soup! Crazy when before I'd have that a whole lot more in just one sitting!

I know what you mean. My staples are starting to pull and it hurts. I am getting them taken out today. It amazes me how I went from eating everything in sight to a yogurt, pintos n cheese, oatmeal and maybe a soup and be stuffed. I am soo excited about my this.
