Hello lady. I got mine on the 18. Doing pretty good so far. Go for fill January 30. How are doing so far?

Oh that is a good idea. I will use that one:)

Good morning. My port is on my right side and I definite cannot sleep on that side. I was banded December 18. My stomach is still a little tender but not really sore like it was. I can feel my port when I touch my stomach and it made me queasie. Girl 171 was good. Are you weighing yourself @ home if so maybe you want to stay off of the scale and just weigh in when you go to the dr. The scale can stress you out if you are not loosing and it make you disappointed also. My dr told me not to weigh myself in the meetings just let him do the weighing and that is what i am doing:) so if can just let them do it for awhile. Hope all is well and the scale will start to move sooner or later.

Yes my port side is still very much sore. I cannot lay on my left side. T will gradually get better and your will to.

. Hey how are you. You are not a wuss because it is going to be sore for awhile. I am still sore especially on the port side. Egg salad sounds good. Gone give that a try. You are not complaining because this is what this site is for:). My stomach is still bloated also it will be a minute before it goes down. I look like i am pregnant.lol . I am doing pretty goodover all. Your stomach will go down gradually.

Oh and I was starving :-) but I got through it and you can to.

HI pretty Mercedes:) Girl I am doing great!! I just cannot wait to come off of the liquid diet.lol. Right now I welcome a piece of fish and anything else that I can eat.) But it is over for the surgery and it went very well. How are you still doing? Keep me posted on your journey and I will do the same. Girl you so gorgeous:)

Wow has anyone else been on the liquid diet before surgery and wanted everything in the world to eat and know that you cannot have it.??? It is just like coming off of drugs. I am trying to find everything in the world to keep me busy so I will not eat then I will be sorry. I definite cannot cheat because my lb surgery is tomorrow. Which me luck:))

Dylanmiles23. Child I know exactly what you mean. I miss chewing so bad. Girl I would welcome a piece of fish right about now:). I am doing things to pass away time. I have started walking some, talking to my family just to pass the days away because now that I have this band I am definite not going to cheat because I do not want anything getting stuck. So I will be following the rules. Have a blessed day.

Well hello my lap band friends. I finally had my surgery and it was not to bad @ all. Left my throat sore. I am just so glad it is over with.

Girl I have not been banded yet will be Tuesday the 18. Right around the corner and far as I concerned I will not be sharing with nosy people. They will have their own assumption any way. I told some of my family not all of them even just a few. But it is my and your business because the lap band is not a miracle pill you still have to exercise more and eat right. I will be offering any information because we do not owe them any explanations. I cannot wait til Tuesday and by the way you have done great on your weight loss. Congratulations.
