Banded Yesterday!

I was banded yesterday morning by Dr. Kirschenbaum in Colorado. It was a great experience for me. I was totally nervous because I had never had surgery before. The staff was awesome and helped me through my anxiety. I feel some pain but nothing unbearable and I am so excited to start my new life. Anyone else banded yesterday???

I was banded yesterday also. I great experience in the hospital. I am sore today but I am up moving around trying to get rid of this gas pain. How much can you drink at one time? I can hold 2oz. like the doctor said but sometimes I stop earlier. Keep in touch.

Hello! I was banded Jan 23rd and have now graduated to mashed stuff! I was sooooo ready for food and am happy that I'm feeling satisfied with such a small amount of food...pureed as it is! lol. The worst day so far was the superbowl and all the smells from food cooking......not that I was hungry but man.....the smell of food was driving me crazy!
