Well here i am im now 2 days banded, i was glad to get home from the hospital because the bed was so uncomfortable , they had me sleeping in a sitting position so my backside could feel the base of the bed and it make for a sleepless night .

Next day i had less pain it feelt like i was winded like i had been punched in the gut, iv was told to only drink liquids for a week and only sipp sipp sipp and only 50mil every 10 min , and every meal no more than a half a cup at a time. Its going ok im haveing tomatoe soup and its way better than the diet drink i was on befor, I had some gas too i was told this would happen due to the gas they pumped into my stomach to fit the band well its on it way out with a bit of pain but im glad its going because my stomach dosent feel as blotted now . Im going on small walks around the house and yard feeding the chooks and checking the mail box , my stomach is making lots of noise and i feel hunger pangs but this just must be all part and parcle of the lap band experience and im finding it a little hard to breath sometimes I had a great night sleep last night and looking forward for tomorrow... will keep you all posted on my progress...cheers Tracey. ..P.S can someone tell me how i can make my weight/ progress/ chart come up on my profile im not sure wich settings i have to go into.
