I decided to get the single incision Realize band. He went through my belly button and there is one itsy bitsy cut at my breast bone area. My pain is minimal. I keep waiting for the BIG pains but none yet. I just got home from the hopital so am heading to my family room with my pillow and blanket to rest. Yeah!!! It is finally done:thumbup:

That is awesome! I had a 2-incision surgery as well, but my second scar is a whole lot more visible than yours will be! What a great innovation.

I hope you are recuperating nicely! Welcome to Bandland!

Wow, that sounds very positive. I have been reading various postings and many have complained about pain etc. I get banded on the 10th so I am getting just a little bit nervous so this helps. Hope you can continue to feel good and you recover quickly!:thumbup:

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

      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?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
