Yuck and Ouch. this was my Highest (371lbs) -15 lbs post op.

so the Dr takes off the bandies?? or they fall off?

Referring to the ones on my arms or the tummy? lol- Assuming tummy.

after 3 days i was able to take them off my tummy.... the largest (port entry) gave me lots of problems, then "chemical reaction burn" from the tape used,... healing was slow and painful. Finally closed up though! The stapled came out 2 weeks post op. Blah! haha
