Hi all. I was banded 12/6 and have lost about 13 lbs total. I went for my first fill. How did you all feel afterwards ?

I had the dermabond skin glue so I could shower immediately.

Awesomeness!! I had my first appt today and down 13lbs! I didn't get a fill ( will do that 12/31) but I can start to work in foods now! Yay!

Good luck to all of the folks getting banded today! See you soon!

Awesome! You look beautiful!!

I just wanted to let everyone freshly post op that there is light after all the gas pains! I was banded on 12/6 and I return to work tomorrow!! I have not had pain meds in a few days, gas moving freely ) and only pain really is at port site. I also have follow up with surgeon tomorrow afternoon! Hang in there everyone it gets better, and pretty quickly! I am so excited about this journey! 15 pounds gone so far and I hope to start the treadmill this week. It's only going to get from here!! We have each other!! Xo

I am so sorry that you are having such a trying time. It's unfortunate that the ones we love the most hurt us the most sometimes! You can do this, you WILL do this! We are here for you!!! Hugs!!

I would have to agree with Chez... I honestly don't think you will feel like it. And you will most likely realize this at that time, but just take care of yourself!!

Thank you!

Yahoooo let the journey begin! Congrats!

Best of luck to you!!! You will be fine!!

I'm so excited!!!

That's kind of what I was thinking. That with RnY weight loss is almost guaranteed... With band it's mostly the patient that controls the weight loss. I proceeded with great confidence that I will be successful.
