My dr tried to get me to do the bypass because of my high BMI (the sleeve is not covered by my military insurance). But I stuck to my guns...and look at me now....123 pounds lighter in 1 yr..Yeah, the band works if you work the band. Just my opinion. Best of luck in whatever you decide. -

I was in the reg bed and slept on my stomach (my normal position). I believe I had so much stomach fat that I couldn't feel my port area and it wasn't not uncomfy in the slightest..

☠carolinagirl☠ replied to debpaige's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
hey there...I was swollen for about a month and a wee bit tender in the port region....and because the insides are still swollen for surgery, it is most likely why you are not as hungry...have no fear, that will return..so keep doing what you are doing. congrats on your surgery and have a great day. -
A drink I saw someone have at support meeting tonight, wow
☠carolinagirl☠ replied to donna12's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
some dr's are ok with it and some aren't....and since I have been on this forum for a year now, I see people who drink soda and those who don't...I still think it is best for someone to do whatever their dr recommends for them. I haven't had a soda in 12+ months....don't miss it...thank heavens for peach ice tea/crystal light -

What can I use to diminish the scars?
☠carolinagirl☠ replied to hockeymother's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
i am a year post op and you cannot (see) 4 of the incisions and only a very extreme slight little line where my port is....i have not used any special cream. i guess nature is healing it......and if i ever did wear a bikini again (not hardly) i would not let that little mark bother me.....its my reminder of my friend. -
