So no restrictions on travel after the band, even next day? I have business travel 3 days after the band....nervous about it though..

nope.. none at all.

I know lots of people who have gone to Mexico and fly home the next day with no problem :scared2:

Hi Dana,

I will be banded the 21st! My pre op diet starts next Thursday and will be on liquids only for 3 weeks. My husband has been on his liquid only for 2 weeks now and is doing great...I am so proud and amazed at his incredible will power and determination, he's my true inspiration. I have always been heavy, my Mom remembers counting calories for me at about 8 to get some weight off. My highest was about 310 (to tell you the truth I am not exactly sure after I got on the scale and it was 300 I stopped weighing. I might have been bigger than 310 but I just have to guess). So I have done a lot on my own but after the baby I just didn't loose (I had gotten down to 204). So now I am looking forward to being about 150-160 and keeping it off. For me the band is not only about loosing but then being able to MAINTAIN!
