Hey! Just wanted to let everyone know that I am 2 days post op and feeling 100x's better than I had ever imagined! I still have a little soreness when I move certain ways, but its kinda like my ab's are just really really sore from a good work out or something! I have a little bit of congestion and I will probably go 2 the doc tomorrow if it does not get any better to make sure i don't have pneumonia, but im sure that i dont!! This morning I was able to shower by myself and I actually felt like drying my hair and putting on a little make up! Oh and I have already lost TEN pounds so im pretty pumped bout that!!! I just wanted to open up and let u guys ask me any questions if you have them!

I wish you all the best of luck!

Roxy :huh2:

Congratulations on getting banded and feeling great! I hope I'm as lucky as you!

I'm getting banded on December 30th and I'm slightly freaking out!! I know this is what I want, but I'm just a little worried about the whole thing.

I'm doing the pre-op liquid diet right now. They said I can have Jello, slim fast shakes/protein shakes, and if i need it, a small chicken breast in the evening. WHat did you do for your liquid diet? They said I cant have red or orange jello which is the only flavors I like! Did you eat any of the sugar free Jello puddings?

What was surgery like? Do you have 5 incisions?

Well I actually didnt have 2 do a preop diet besides the day before liquids only and nothing after midnight so I will be no help to you there!

Surgery was quick and I dont remember anything about the day after they put me to sleep! I slept a lot, and getting in the liquids the first few days was rough but other than that it was great! Yea i do have 5 incisions but I can tell that they wont be very visible after I heal well and everything! My mom had gastric bypass sugery 4 years ago and you cant even see hers at all!

Good luck! Dont be too nervous, it will go well!! Feel free to ask me any other questions!!

Have a great day!
