It does Sandie.

Are you taking GasX?

Also I posted in the thread called "I hope I'm not in trouble" of one way that really helped me get rid of that gas.

Each day it's better and better.

I was banded 8/5/05 and I have been lucky to heal pretty well but still had those darned gas pains!

Just wanted to wish everyone good luck. I know your scared and nervous because I was and I believe everyone who has the band knows what your going thru. I'm very new at this was just banded on 8-8-05, but if I can help please just ask.

Nickie456,

I have a ? for you. What is Monterrey like? We leave early Tue. morning, I am assuming that it is very hot there. Did you get a wheel chair at the airport, and if so what was that like? I am embarrassed about getting an extension on the plane, not sure I will need one, but may. Anything you can tell me about it would be great.

Thanks, and glad you are doing so well.

Shelley

I had my surgery on Thursday afternoon (August 11th). I had a couple of date changes 1st was my schedule and then the Doctor's, but I am banded now. You guys who are later in August don't worry to much the whole process was very easy.

Best wishes.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
