I'm planning to take a week although I don't do any lifting I want to make sure I can rest & give myself adequate time to heal from what I've been reading most people can't get much nutrition in the first week due to swelling so I think I would b worn out & drained so I'm going to take a week to concentrate on sipping more each day Sent from my Desire HD using LapBandTalk

Considering Lap Band Surgery
rascodr replied to LBWannabe's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Lapband is has a shorter recovery time less cutting shorter surgery time slower weight loss(less chance of saggy skin) so it fit for me Sent from my Desire HD using LapBandTalk -

Sorry that u aren't feeling well April but remember u JUST had surgery u might b expecting too much too soon the body needs time to heal and adjust the the changes the band causes I think it might b too soon to go to work maybe u should thinking about calling in & rest a extra day just a suggestion good luck & I hope u are feeling better soon

@Chou& biloxiblue its been a few days how are u feeling I hope all is well have u wieghed itself yet? Any progress? DeAna -
Did I see that u said the hospital actually bills u for ur portion after the surgery once the insurance pays their part I will get a bill for my part or do I have to pay whatever is my portion up front it looks like the Max I would pay pending approval is $2500 and that could be less due to all that ive paid for Dr visits and lab test DeAna
