I was banded yesterday, 10/12/09. Surgery went smoothly. They also fixed a hernia, that I didn't even know I had, around my esophagus and stomach. I am a little sore, especially around my shoulders from the gas, but no pain thanks to the disgusting liquid pain meds.

Good luck to the rest of the Oct. bansters getting ready!:thumbup:

I want to say congrats to all of you that's been banded this month. I too was banded Oct 1st. Smooth recovery except for some gas pain's. Milk of Mag did the trick.

I hope everyone is doing well and to those of you still waiting on your date. You will be in my thoughts and prayers during surgery. GO OCTOBER BANDSTERS.

That is so wonderful for you! I have only lost 10 pounds but I only did a 48 hr fast pre surgery & I only have 30-40 to lose. I understand it will take longer for me and I'm ok with that.

I'm sad to see my boobs shrink as well but that too was expected so I am thinking of an augmentation next year.

I returned to work 1 week after gurgery and I could tell right away my uniform was not as tight as before. It definetely is a huge motivator!

Can't wait till my 1st fill. Unfortunately it won't be until mid-Nov. since I am going to Europe & I don't want complications abroad...

Good Luck!

We are on our way!!!

BTW: you know you are our big sister since you went Oct 1st, right?

My op is scheduled for 10/20. Looking forward to it but the days and nights are moving too slow. Thankful though, that I was not put on liquid diet by my surgeon. Congrats to all the October Bandsters who have had their ops already. Good Luck to the rest of us.

How are all the new bandsters doing. Had mine on the 13th and doing really well. Only took one percocet on the 13th and that was it. Very little gas pain.

Did not do well drinking yesterday...but today is better...got my first shake down already.

So for those that are waiting...no worries..you will do fine!

I will be thinking of you!

      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! 😞
