Hello guys.

I am new to band land. I was banded on 3-31-09 in Houston, TX and things went great. Well I was a little worried the day of surgery. I had surgery at 10:30am they told me I could go home at 1:30 pm as long as I could go to the potty and drink the soup/ water and Jello. Well food went down fine but going to the bathroom was a challenge. OMG around 5:30 pm I was finally able to go they were 5 min away from calling the doctor to see if I needed to be admitted to the hospital. I have never prayed to pee but there is a first time for everything :welldoneclap:

Congrats on the banding...How are you feeling? I have read that the first days are the worst and horrible, hope your doing well and I hope to join you real soon and be banded before the summers out.

Keep in touch, I'd like to follow your progress.
